Chandra’s observations of RXJ1856.5-3754 and 3C58 suggest that the matter in these stars is even denser than nuclear matter found on Earth. This raises the possibility these stars are composed of pure ...

Astronomers have long been puzzled by two strange phenomena at the heart of our galaxy. First, the gas in the central molecular zone (CMZ), a dense and chaotic region near the Milky Way’s core, ...

Physicists at CERN may have glimpsed an elusive particle, 'toponium', never observed before. This discovery could revolutionize our understanding of matter at the quantum scale. The CMS experiment at ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Image showing dozens of faraway galaxies in deep space. Dark matter, the invisible material that makes up the vast majority of the ...

Ultrafine dark matter, millions of times lighter than electrons, could flow through the cosmos in waves. We might just have an easy way to check for tiny interactions between this dark matter and the ...

Physicists have unveiled a new way to simulate a mysterious form of dark matter that can collide with itself but not with normal matter. This self-interacting dark matter may trigger a dramatic ...

The manipulation of metals as they transform from a liquid to a solid can have immense benefits for technologies. A new study finds that the manipulation of stationary atoms in a liquid metal can ...

Dark matter is real, according to most experts. However, some scientists still debate if it is real or not, and we do not know much about it. Dark matter is a mysterious and invisible substance that ...

A strange, glowing form of matter called dusty plasma turns out to be incredibly sensitive to magnetic fields. Researchers found that even weak fields can change how tiny particles grow, simply by ...
