New research puts forward compelling new evidence that dark matter interacts with cosmic "ghost particles" called neutrinos.

The search for dark matter has been largely unsuccessful so far. But now, scientists think they know where to look for it.

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

A new theory suggests fusion reactors could help scientists search for axions, mysterious particles that may explain dark ...

Reactors designed to produce energy from the fusion of atoms could have an unexpected scientific side benefit. An ...

Physicists have discovered an exotic new state of matter that takes the form of a highly ordered crystal of subatomic particles. The new state of matter, called a "bosonic correlated insulator," could ...

A simple explanation of dark matter and antimatter, how they differ, how scientists study them, and why both are important to understanding the universe.
