Scientists discover how galaxies can exist without dark matter
When tiny galaxies collide with bigger ones, the bigger galaxies can strip the smaller galaxies of their dark matter which we can’t see.

The true nature of dark matter and ordinary matter interactions
A new study suggests the existence of a direct interaction between the elementary particles that make up the dark matter and ordinary matter

Have we detected dark energy? Scientists say it's a possibility
Unexplained results from the XENON1T experiment may have been caused by dark energy, and not the dark matter the experiment tried to detect.

Scientists invent new dark matter detector using quantum ion crystals
Researchers can measure the vibrational excitation of the crystal — the flat plane moving up and down like the head of a drum.
