Medicine & TechnologyResearchers claim that axions could be responsible for a surplus of X-ray emissions observed from a community of neutron stars in our galaxy.
Researchers have used the accuracy of optical clocks to close in on the mysterious components of dark matter, as well as the coupling between parts - particles and fields - postulated by the standard model of physics.
Dark matter is the firmament of the universe that formed after the big bang. Whether it is warm, fuzzy, or cold remains a subject for speculation for scientists as an exact image is yet to be captured.
A new study conducted by a team of astronomers through the NASA’s Chandra X-Ray Observatory data reveals a new model for the dark matter present in the universe. The dark matter can be fuzzy but not cold.
New evidence shows that other part of galaxies also emits excessive radiation of gamma rays, not only dark matter, leaving the mystery remains unsolved.
New observations from ESO's Very Large Telescope have revealed that the outer parts of massive disc galaxies 10 billion years ago were rotating less quickly than the spiral galaxies, like the Milky Way, that we see today. This ESOcast Light summarizes the important points of this discovery and the significance of the dark matter, and how it is distributed.
