Scientists study 3,000 supernovas and discover that dark energy may be evolving

A catalog of almost 3,000 white dwarfs that exploded as type Ia supernovas after overfeeding on companion stars indicates that dark energy is changing over time.

Scientists may have detected the 1st direct evidence of dark matter
Scientists may have detected the 1st direct evidence of dark matter

Using the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment, scientists may have detected the first direct evidence of dark matter, in the form of a rare interaction between a WIMP particle and ordinary matter.

Could ‘dark photons’ explain dark matter?
Could ‘dark photons’ explain dark matter?

New research suggests that if dark matter is composed of “dark photons,” it would not have heated the early cosmos like scientists thought.

Is dark matter ‘tuned in’ to a hidden dimension?
Is dark matter ‘tuned in’ to a hidden dimension?

Two major mysteries in science, the nature of dark matter and the possible existence of higher dimensions, could be linked, new research suggests.

Dark energy is still accelerating the expansion of the universe, and astronomers are relieved. ‘Thankfully, we have averted this crisis’
Dark energy is still accelerating the expansion of the universe, and astronomers are relieved. ‘Thankfully, we have averted this crisis’

The expansion of the universe is still accelerating under the influence of dark energy, despite recent claims to the contrary averting a cosmological crisis, according to new research.

A mysterious gamma-ray stream comes from the Milky Way’s center. Could dark matter have something to do with it?

New research has failed to rule out self-annihilating dark matter as the source of a hotly debated gamma-ray emission known as the Galactic Center Excess radiating from the heart of the Milky Way.

Supermassive black holes may be surrounded by dark matter clusters, new ‘echo map’ technique suggests

A technique called echo mapping suggests supermassive black holes, like that at the heart of the Milky Way, are surrounded by clusters of dark matter.

We still can’t see dark matter. But what if we can hear it?

Black holes smashing together may churn dark matter “butter,” scientists say.

‘Cannibal stars,’ AI and the Rubin Observatory could shed light on the mystery of dark energy. Here’s how

Using AI and Rubin Observatory data, scientists are rethinking Type 1a supernova “standard candles,” hunting for “unknown unknowns” that could lead us to missing ingredients in our recipe of the cosmos and solve the puzzle…

3 puzzles of our universe could be solved with this new dark matter theory

A new recipe of dark matter that interacts with itself could be the solution to three separate and vastly different cosmic puzzles.
