Dark Matter

Dark matter could be made of particles that each weigh almost as much as a human cell and are nearly dense enough to become miniature black holes, new research suggests.

Computer simulations suggest that filaments of invisible dark matter form long "hairs" when they go through planets such as Earth.

Dark matter particles may have interacted often with normal matter long ago, when the universe was very hot, a new study suggests.

Dark matter might be made of clouds of energy cracks instead of particles and may be detectable in GPS signals.

The mysterious matter called dark matter may not be made of tiny particles, as most scientists believe, but instead may consist of chunks as large as an asteroid, researchers say.

The AMS particle detector aboard the International Space Station has found more evidence of dark matter in cosmic ray data.

The United States particle physics community should focus on dark matter and energy experiments, as well as pursuing new physics related to neutrinos and the Higgs Boson, a new report suggests.
