Dark matter detector finds a strange signal scientists can’t yet explain
The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment has detected a rare particle interaction that looks unusually difficult to explain as ordinary background noise and appeared where dark matter might be expected. Scientists are not claiming a discovery yet, but additional data could show whether this single mysterious event is the first hint of a long-sought dark matter particle.
New experimental results indicate signs of detection of black matter. Have these particles, which matter a lot in the Universe but remain elusive, finally been found? Not completely, but this is the most serious index ever obtained by the experiment.
For once, I will derogate from the rule that I am determined to speak only about articles published in newspapers after peer review. This is the presentation of a result two days ago in a physics conference held in Japan, which concerns black matter, which particularly affects me... I specify that the corresponding article was submitted for publication in the very famous Physical Review Letters and could be released in a few months... What is be…
Scientists detect possible dark matter interaction
First proposed nearly a century ago, dark matter accounts for around 85% of the mass in the universe but has never before been directly detected. The new study, which involved an international collaboration of 250 scientists and engineers from 39 institutions spanning six countries, recorded a single particle interaction, which researchers have struggled to explain with known background signals from normal matter. For two years, the team have be…
