For more than half a century, scientists have tried to understand dark matter—a mysterious form of matter that doesn’t emit or absorb light but is thought to make up most of the universe’s ...

In fact, there is so much dark matter near the galactic centre that this process could effectively make stars immortal, says John.

Modelling suggests that annihilation of this strange, invisible matter helps stars to retain that youthful glow.

These stars might form when brown dwarfs absorb enough dark matter to prevent cooling, transforming into long-lasting beacons of invisible energy.

The research is titled "Dark dwarfs: dark matter -powered sub-stellar objects awaiting discovery at the galactic center," and it's published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics.

Dark matter remains one of science's deepest mysteries. It makes up about 25% of our universe, yet scientists only observe its gravitational effects.

Physics & Chemistry Record-Setting Dark Matter Detector Comes Up Empty—and That’s Good News LUX-ZEPLIN’s latest result sets the most stringent limit on WIMPs' interaction strength to date.

Study proposes a way to search for the telltale signals of dark matter, and reveal its WIMPy nature.

The Anglo-USA team behind the study named them dark dwarfs. Not because they are dark bodies—on the contrary—but because of their special link with dark matter, one of the most central topics ...

Koenigsegg has since become the name linked to high-performance automotive engineering, and this company is not shying away from shocking the world with its latest revelations. Sweden has just ...

The axion may help clean up the messy business of dark matter We haven't found evidence of the theoretical particle, but it's still worth investigating.
