[ad_1] On the first floor of the MIT Nuclear Science Laboratory hangs an instrument called “A Broadband / Resonant Approach to Cosmic Axis Sensing with an Amplifying B-Field Ring Apparatus”, or ABRACADABRA for short. As the name states, ABRACADABRA’s goal is to detect axions, a hypothetical particle that could be …

[ad_1] A distant galaxy with almost no dark matter threatened to break our theory of galaxy formation. New evidence suggests the galaxy is not an anomaly, but a victim of a theft. Dark matter – an invisible substance as enigmatic as its name suggests – is a key ingredient in …

[ad_1] Credit:N. Hanacek / NIST JILA researchers used a state-of-the-art atomic clock to narrow the search for elusive dark matter, an example of how continuous improvements in watches have value beyond timekeeping. Older atomic clocks operating at microwave frequencies have already searched for dark matter, but this is the first …

[ad_1] Illustration: Jim Cooke Dark matter physicists may have one of the most frustrating jobs in science. Their work deals with something that, according to almost all models of the universe, must exist. But we have never found any direct evidence for dark matter. Where other scientists can capture their …

[ad_1] Who says you can’t get hotter with age? Researchers from Johns Hopkins University and other institutions have found that, on average, the temperature of galaxy clusters today is 4 million degrees Fahrenheit. This is 10 times hotter than 10 billion years ago and four times hotter than the Sun’s …
