Information could become the fifth state of matter alongside gas, plasma, liquid, and solid states. A scientist has proposed ...

The Big Bang created equal amounts of matter and antimatter. So, why is there so much more matter than antimatter in the Universe? Irfu is participating in the preparation of Hyper-Kamiokande, ...

Determining the nature of dark matter, the invisible substance that makes up most of the mass in our universe, is one of the ...

Physicists are eyeing charged gravitinos—ultra-heavy, stable particles from supergravity theory—as possible Dark Matter ...

On Wednesday (Sept. 27) morning, an international team of physicists reported a major finding about an elusive form of matter known as antimatter. It appears that antimatter responds to gravity the ...

Scientists have just slashed the potential hiding spaces for dark matter particles. The LUX-ZEPLIN, or LZ, experiment has searched for and ruled out the existence of dark matter particles with a wide ...

Consider it good news, physicists say: “The opposite result would have had big implications.” By Dennis Overbye Antimatter just lost a little more pizazz. Physicists know that for every fundamental ...
