Black holes crashing together may be revealing clues about dark matter hidden across the universe. Physicists created a new ...

Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and a number of European institutions have discovered ...

New research suggests dark matter could leave a tiny but discernible imprint in the cacophony of ripples in spacetime called "gravitational waves" that ring through the cosmos whe ...

Dark matter is thought to make up most of the matter in the universe, but the only way it interacts with its surroundings is through gravity. If two colliding black holes spiral through a dense region ...

Somewhere around 12,000 light-years from Earth, a star that is slightly smaller and cooler than our Sun did something violent ...

A decade ago, we spotted an exoplanet that could be the most habitable world yet discovered. Now we're about to find out if ...

Scientists looking for dark matter have looked almost everywhere they could imagine: deep underground detectors, powerful particle colliders, precision telescopes, and maps of the universe itself. Yet ...

Scientists have announced the results of a decade-long quest to measure Newton’s gravitational constant, the force that keeps our feet on the ground and holds planets in orbit. The pursuit was more or ...

A physicist has proposed a bold experiment that could allow gravitational waves to be manipulated using laser light. By transferring minute amounts of energy between light and gravity, the interaction ...
