In 2023, the IceCube Neutrino Observatory confirmed high-energy neutrinos from the Milky Way, marking a new era in astronomy.
The nature of dark matter has puzzled astronomers since discovering that 85% of the universe's matter is invisible through ...
Physicists find themselves wishing upon a star (to explode) to solve one of the most frustrating questions in science.
Researchers at UC Berkeley proposed that axions, hypothetical particles, could be detected shortly after a supernova's gamma ...
Researchers believe that observing gamma rays from a supernova could confirm the existence of axions, potentially solving the ...
As the universe expands (as it does in a dark matter-dominated universe) the distance between us and all other stars ...
The particles that make up dark matter could be created right at the start of a supernova. However, we would need a bit of ...
Such a detection is possible today only if the lone gamma-ray telescope in orbit, the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope ... the supernova has to be nearby — within our Milky Way galaxy or one of its ...
The search for the universe's dark matter could end tomorrow—given a nearby supernova and a little luck. The nature of dark matter has eluded astronomers for 90 years, since the realization that 85% ...
The universe is too vast to track distances on the scale of miles, so astronomers use light-years to convey the great lengths ...
NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope captured this image of   Giant Gamma-ray Bubbles which helped  scientists discovered a gigantic, mysterious structure in our galaxy.   In this main image, ...
