When it comes to understanding the universe, what we know is only a sliver of the whole picture.

Dark matter is an elusive type of matter that does not emit, absorb or reflect light, interacting very weakly with ordinary ...

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captures the magnificent starry population of the Coma Cluster of galaxies, one of the densest known galaxy collections in the universe — and where the effect of dark ...

Machine learning has emerged as a powerful tool in condensed matter physics, offering new perspectives on the exploration of quantum many-body systems, phase transitions and exotic states of matter.

Condensed matter physics explores the emergent phenomena that arise from the collective interactions among an immense number of electrons, ions and other quasiparticles within solids and liquids. By ...

Physics researchers from Drexel University at the IceCube Neutrino Observatory led the production of a first-of-its-kind neutrino-based image of the Milky Way Galaxy that uses particles of matter, ...
