Cosmologists from the US and Switzerland were able to resolve dark matter structures in the Milky Way. Using a computer simulation, the team was able to detect dark matter sub-halos and streams contained within the dark matter halo engulfing our ...
A Step Towards the Detection of WIMPs
A Canadian, American, and Czech team of astronomers has achieved a higher separation of WIMP interactions from other interactions in a dark matter detector that previously achieved. This resulted during calibration runs of new modules used in the PICASSO project ...
Dark Matter Filament Detected Near the Milky Way
Scientists at the Tel Aviv University discovered a string of galaxies only 15 million light years from the Milky Way. This group stands out because despite no apparent mutual interaction they display similar behavior. They all had recent star formation ...
