The Large Hadron Collider is going to be shut down — not permanently, but for a pretty long time — and the famous atom ...

To unlock the secrets of dark matter, scientists could turn to supermassive black holes and their ability to act as natural superpowered particle colliders. That's according to new research that found ...

As a central hub for scientific exploration, CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is dedicated to probing the enigmatic particles that could potentially elucidate the mystery of dark ...

The CERN has recently submitted a preliminary report (FCC) proposing the design of a future particle accelerator with a 100 km circumference. If realized, this ...

As federal funding cuts impact decades of research, scientists could turn to black holes for cheaper, natural alternatives to expensive facilities searching for dark matter and similarly elusive ...

Could future fusion reactors also serve as laboratories in which to manufacture dark matter? That’s the provocative question ...

Europe's physics lab CERN on Thursday said private donors had pledged $1 billion towards the construction of a new particle accelerator that would be by far the world's biggest. In a first, private ...

The mysterious substance called dark matter is intrinsically invisible. It cannot be directly observed—rather, its presence is inferred by its gravitational influence on the universe, such as binding ...

An extremely high-energy particle that was spotted tearing through Earth has left scientists flummoxed ever since it was discovered. While many researchers believe the particle was an unusual neutrino ...

Europe's physics lab CERN on Thursday said private donors had pledged $1 billion toward the construction of a new particle accelerator that would be by far the world's biggest. In a first, private ...

An artistic illustration of the mechanism proposed by Professor Stefano Profumo where quantum effects near the rapidly expanding cosmic horizon after the Big Bang gravitationally generate dark matter ...

When trying to answer questions as deep as “what makes up the universe,” advance planning is key. On June 11, the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine announced the result of a ...
