Dark Matter found: Scientists conducting the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment deep underground in South Dakota have detected a rare particle interaction that could potentially be linked to dark matter. Researchers say the event resembles the expected signature of a WIMP, a leading dark matter candidate, but caution that a single event is not enough to confirm a discovery.

The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment has detected a rare particle interaction that looks unusually difficult to explain as ordinary background noise and appeared where dark matter might be…

The world’s biggest dark matter search saw a particle it cannot explain

Until now, evidence for dark matter has come from observing its apparent gravitational effects.

An unknown material fills the universe.
