Japanese researchers are pushing quantum technology to the point where it can register unimaginably small disturbances, ...

New research explores how gravitational waves from black hole systems could help scientists study dark matter, using improved models and future detectors like LISA ...

Fusion power has long been sold as the technology that could light our cities with the same process that powers the stars.

Gravitational waves from black holes may soon reveal where dark matter is hiding. A new model shows how dark matter surrounding massive black holes leaves detectable fingerprints in the waves recorded ...

Axions are hypothetical light particles that could solve two different physics problems, as they could explain why some ...

A new study by researchers at the University of Amsterdam shows how gravitational waves from black holes can be used to reveal the presence of dark matter and help determine its properties. The key is ...

Searches for dark matter particles have come up empty so far, driving theorists to get more creative with their ideas.
