The gravitational lensing that causes this rare phenomenon cannot be explained solely by looking at observable ...

The LUX-ZEPLIN detector is breaking new ground in the hunt for dark matter, setting unprecedented limits on WIMP particles.

Results from the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment, co-founded by UC Santa Barbara physicists, mark a major step in defining what dark matter can — and cannot — be ...

The LZ detector will run for at least 1,000 days through 2028, and scientists have now released the data from the first 220 ...

Scientists have long embraced the fact that forces beyond sight govern the universe. Dark matter, they think, holds galaxies together with extra gravity, and dark energy drives the universe’s ...

For decades, astronomers have believed that dark matter and dark energy make up most of the universe, however, a new study ...

In their search for dark matter, scientists from the XENON Collaboration are using one of the world's most sensitive dark ...

Astronomers are using radio pulses from space to find missing baryonic matter and learn about supermassive black holes, ...

Sometimes, the simplest explanation is the best one," Professor Gupta said. "Maybe the universe’s biggest secrets are just ...

Determining the nature of dark matter, the invisible substance that makes up most of the mass in our universe, is one of the ...

Scientists have just slashed the potential hiding spaces for dark matter particles. The LUX-ZEPLIN, or LZ, experiment has searched for and ruled out the existence of dark matter particles with a wide ...
