Although scientists have yet to find the spooky stuff, they aren’t completely in the dark.

Physicists deal with background in their experiments in two ways: by reducing it and by rejecting it.

A new material’s strange properties could be useful in future quantum computers

An Italian experiment has a 20-year signal of what could be dark matter—and scientists are embarking on their most promising efforts yet to confirm or refute its results.

In their quest to discover physics beyond the Standard Model, physicists weigh the pros and cons of different search strategies

Paul Olsen drills into the Earth’s sedimentary record for clues about the evolution of the solar system

Particle detectors recorded neutrinos from supernova SN1987A hours before telescopes saw the first light. Thirty years later, scientists around the world are eager to detect neutrinos from another one.

Scientists keep getting conflicting calculations of the expansion rate of the universe, but a new technique could help.

Engineering a device that can precisely take the temperature of 770 tons of liquid argon is no easy task.

Predicted by Einstein and discovered in 1979, gravitational lensing helps astrophysicists understand the evolving shape of the universe.

Fermilab scientists are harnessing quantum technology in the search for dark matter.
