A new study has proposed that the detection of antihelium in cosmic rays could be evidence of a new category of particles ...

Its key objective is to search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) by analyzing data collected by the LZ detector, situated at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in South Dakota.

These two properties of axions mean that they are exceptionally good at collapsing down to incredibly high densities, pulled ...

The discovery could help scientists get closer to understanding the mysterious invisible matter that makes up the bulk of our universe.

Unraveling the secret of dark matter could change our understanding of the universe completely. While its exact form is still unknown, one major hypothesis is that it is made up of weakly interacting ...

This experiment uses a dual-phase xenon time projection chamber to search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), a leading candidate for dark matter. The initial findings indicated that ...

Only 5% of all visible matter in the universe is baryonic matter, while the remaining 95% consists of dark matter and dark energy.

Around one billion of a certain group of particles called weakly interacting massive particles — or WIMPS, for short — are expected to pass through this detector per second. But so far ...

The presence of these particles, especially from the decay of WIMPs (Weakly Interacting Massive Particles), could point toward dark matter interactions. If this breakthrough holds, it may reshape ...

detected by instruments aboard the International Space Station (ISS), could have been produced by a new category of particles known as Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). These WIMPs are ...

There is no shortage of past results and present world-leading ones which rule out vast swaths of the possible theoretical parameter space, especially for the WIMP (Weakly Interacting Massive ...
