Large Hadron Collider may be closing in on the universe's missing antimatter
Physicists at the Large Hadron Collider are closing in on an explanation for why we live in a universe of matter and not antimatter.
Dark matter atoms may form shadowy galaxies with rapid star formation
Dark matter, the invisible material that makes up the vast majority of the universe's mass, may collect itself to form atoms, a new simulation shows.
Strange star system may hold first evidence of an ultra-rare 'dark matter star'
In a distant star system, a sunlike star orbits an invisible object that may be the first example of a 'boson star' made of dark matter, new research suggests.
Supermassive black holes share a surprising link with subatomic gluon 'color glass walls'
Scientists have discovered a connection between supermassive black holes and densely packed gluon 'walls' called color glass condensates.
'Ant-Man' star Paul Rudd quizzes NASA expert on quantum science
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania star Paul Rudd can’t get enough of the quantum realm. Rudd took to YouTube to ask a NASA quantum physicist some big questions.
Faint gravitational waves may be from primordial fractures in space-time
The early universe may have been such a violent place that space-time itself fractured like a pane of glass, releasing gravitational waves that astronomers say we may have already detected.
Dark energy could lead to a second (and third, and fourth) Big Bang, new research suggests
Scientists have proposed a way that the universe could stop expanding, ending in a 'Big Crunch' that resets space and time as we know it.
X-rays reveal how 450-year-old Tycho supernova became a giant cosmic particle accelerator
In new research, astronomers have mapped the magnetic field in the historic Tycho supernova remnant that accelerates charged particles close to the speed of light.
