Astroparticle Physics News Today

Scientists have found evidence that Einstein's general theory of relativity doesn't quite work in the distant universe.

A team of researchers has stumbled upon a mysterious "cosmic glitch" in gravity, which could potentially help explain the universe's strange behavior. As detailed in a new paper published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, the team from the University of Waterloo and the University of British Columbia in Canada posit that Albert Einstein's […]

Melbourne, Australia (SPX) Apr 08, 2024 - In a new study, scientists at the University of Melbournes ARC Centre of Excellence for Dark Matter Particle Physics have made significant advancements in understanding dark matter by studying neut

New theoretical research suggests that a mysterious form of matter called "unparticles" could be the driving force behind the expansion of the universe.

A new theory published late last year is offering an explanation as to why our universe is expanding at an accelerating rate: Merging with "baby" universes.

The universe is expanding faster and faster, but not all scientists agree that dark energy is the cause. Perhaps, instead, our universe keeps colliding with and absorbing smaller baby universes, a new theoretical study suggests.

The project would include renovation of part of the Osmond Laboratory, along with a building addition.

A new paper suggests we may finally be able to uncover the identity of dark matter using the same technology that detects ripples in space-time known as gravitational waves.
