Researchers measure dark matter speed by studying lopsided galaxies affected by dynamical friction caused by dark matter. This method helps in understanding the interactions between…
Euclid’s strength lies in its diversity: this small section of Euclid’s large image plane shows a detail of the Perseus galaxy cluster. Clearly recognizable are…
Researchers at SISSA propose that dark matter mini-halos in the universe could reveal the existence of primordial magnetic fields, offering new insights into the early…
Researchers have advanced the understanding of dark matter through simulations supporting the self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) theory. This theory potentially resolves inconsistencies in dark matter…
New research explores the possibility that dark matter consists of theoretical particles called axions, focusing on detecting them through additional light from pulsars. Initial observations…
Physicists have developed a novel method to investigate dark matter using gravitational wave detectors, potentially uncovering the effects of dark matter particles on neutron stars.…
