One theory points to a long-awaited supersymmetric particle called a ‘higgsino.’ But that idea has some issues.
Tiny energy bursts inside silicon may explain a stubborn background limiting some of the world’s most sensitive particle ...
Powerful jets from supermassive black holes can disturb star-forming gas far beyond a galaxy’s visible edge, leaving a glowing trail hundreds of thousands of light-years long. By keeping this gas hot ...
Fresh from success at this year’s Great British Fleet Awards, Dundee City Council corporate fleet manager Fraser Crichton talks to Simon Harris about 16 years of building a genuinely closed-loop, ...

Nearly a mile beneath South Dakota, a detector built to search for dark matter has recorded one unusual event. Scientists cannot readily explain it using the ordinary sources of interference they know ...
On Sept. 1, scientists searching for evidence of dark matter unveiled their analysis of an unusual event recorded in 2024. Their findings, though not yet proven, could be a significant clue to the ...
The results add to evidence that dark energy, the unknown component believed to drive that expansion, may evolve rather than remain constant. Type Ia supernovae occur when white dwarf stars undergo ...
Article SummaryA latest study reanalyzing data from over 1,700 Type Ia supernovae has cast doubt on the conventional theory regarding the accelerated expansion of the universe and the existence of ...
Nature inspired University of Waterloo researchers while redesigning a key component of batteries used to store electricity generated by wind and solar farms, making large-scale storage of renewable ...
