What is the nature of dark matter? A new experiment led by Columbia University physics professors aims to find out.

With contributions from Brown faculty and students, the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment analyzed the largest dataset ever collected by a dark matter detector, and the results provide the strongest constraints ...

The General AntiParticle Spectrometer experiment is suspended from a football-field-sized balloon approximately 24 miles ...

Do you know which are the most abundant particles in the universe? It is neutrinos — small, chargeless, and nearly massless subatomic particles that either don’t interact with matter at all or ...

The next generation of dark matter detectors has arrived. A massive new effort to detect the elusive substance has reported its first results. Following a time-honored tradition of dark matter hunters ...

Located deep under the Gran Sasso mountain in Italy, 25 crystals are sealed inside a copper box and surrounded by concrete made from the mountain’s rocks. The intricate installation is a particle ...

Holiday cheer met hands-on learning Saturday when Jason Lindsey — better known as “Mr. Science” — brought festive science fun to the Public Library of Youngstown and Mahoning County. Nearly 50 ...

Dark matter is claimed to make up over 80% of all matter in the universe, but scientists have never seen it. We only assume it exists because, without it, the behavior of stars, planets and galaxies ...

The world’s most sensitive dark matter detector still hasn’t found evidence of weakly interacting massive particles, or WIMPs, but the search continues. LZ’s central detector, the time projection ...

Ms. Covey Denton presented experiments on ENC At Three with host Baileigh Bockover that you can recreate at home.

Jason Lindsey, a nationally recognized STEM educator and science communicator, shared several engaging science experiments for families to do at home during the holiday season, emphasizing that anyone ...

Although science often advances through tried-and-tested methods, sometimes scientists have to find creative ways to test ...
