A new study in the journal Nature examines the distribution of dark matter in the universe, attempting to figure out if it obeys the same laws as regular matter. What it found suggests that dark ...

A mathematical investigation of galactic data suggests elusive dark matter is confined to the rules of gravity.

Scientists have discovered that dark matter, the universe's most mysterious "stuff," obeys gravity on vast cosmological scales. This could help to dismiss the possibility of a fifth fundamental force ...

Does dark matter follow the same laws as ordinary matter? The mystery of this invisible and hypothetical component of our ...

Abstract: Onthe occasion of the 200th Anniversary Ørsted's discovery of the magnetic effects of electric currents, this article summarizes the main stages of the development of electromagnetism before ...

Evidence of this quantum layer may be coming soon. Here’s what you’ll learn in this story: Physicists are still puzzling over ...

In 2024, TU Wien presented the world's first nuclear clock. Now it has been demonstrated that the technology can also be used ...

In the summer of 1752, Benjamin Franklin set out to prove a daring idea: that lightning was simply a gigantic spark of electricity. He attached a metal key to the string of a kite and flew it into a ...

Abstract: We present the basic prerequisites of electromagnetism in flat space–time and provide a description of electromagnetism in terms of the Faraday tensor. We generalize electromagnetic theory ...

Every action in our world is powered by a "force of nature." Currently, there are four main forces that scientists cling to; gravity, electromagnetism, weak interaction, and strong interaction. The ...

Physicists have set a new upper bound on the interaction strength of dark matter by simulating the collision of two clouds of interstellar plasma. The result, from researchers at Ruhr University ...
