Could dark matter atoms explain a recent observation?

A tiny fraction of dark matter could have a charge, allowing it to interact with regular matter during the time between the Big Bang and formation of the Cosmic Microwave Background, some physicists say.

Hubble finds first galaxy in the local universe without dark matter

An international team of researchers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and several other observatories have, for the first time, uncovered a galaxy that is missing dark matter.

Simple telescope picks up hint of the Universe’s first stars, dark matter

A small team of researchers announced that its correspondingly small telescope picked up a signal produced by the very first stars in our Universe.

Hubble data indicate universe growing faster than expected

Lengthy observations by the Hubble Space Telescope indicate the universe is expanding faster than predicted by standard models and that Einstein’s cosmological constant, thought by many to define dark energy, may not be so constant after all.

Astrophysicists have built the most detailed simulation of the Universe ever

The simulation consists of 18 simulations covering various scales - each a cubic mock-up of space up to 1 billion light years wide - tracing the evolution of the Universe from just after the Big Bang into the future.

Dark Energy Survey Releases First Three Years of Data

Results from the first data release of the Dark Energy Survey include eleven new stellar streams in the Milky Way galaxy.

China Plans to Build the World's Largest Steerable Radio Telescope

The Xinjiang Qitai 110-meter Radio Telescope ( QTT ) could help advance research on dark matter, gravitational waves, and extraterrestrial intelligence.

Merging Neutron Stars Challenge Existing Theories of Gravity and Dark Energy.

China’s Dark Matter Satellite Has Produced Some Unusual Results

The experiment has directly detected a sudden drop-off in the electrons hitting the satellite.

Mysterious dark energy is more dynamic than we thought, says new study

New research is adding some deeper insight into the mysterious repulsive force known as dark energy, providing evidence that whatever it might be, its ghostly influence hasn't been constant over time.

Survey reveals most accurate measurement of dark matter in the Universe

Dark Energy Survey scientists unveiled the most accurate measurement ever made of the present large-scale structure of dark matter in the Universe.

These 25 Billion Galaxies are Living in a Simulation

A team of astrophysicists from UZH has simulated the formation of the entire Universe, producing a catalog that will help unlock the secrets of the "Dark Universe".

World's Most Sensitive Dark Matter Detector Gives Researchers Initial Results

The first set of results are in -- no dark matter proof yet. But for the research team, the best news is that the machine actually works.

CERN points giant magnet at the Sun to look for dark matter particles

Engineers at CERN took magnets originally designed for the LHC, combined them with X-ray focusing technology originally designed for space, and built a device that could spot axions arriving here from the Sun.

These are the first images of the web of ghostly dark matter that holds galaxies together

A team of astronomers in Canada used the space-bending effects of dark-matter to see the unseeable.
