In the 1980s and ’90s, when Carlos Frenk worked on some of the first theories of cold dark matter—“cold” refers to the invisible particles’ relatively slow speed—he thought the idea ...

Researchers have created the largest ever map of dark matter – and it could suggest Einstein’s theory of relativity was wrong. Dark matter is an invisible material thought to account for 80 ...

But the new dark matter map is not showing quite what astronomers expected. They have an accurate idea of the distribution of matter 350, 000 years after the Big Bang, from a European Space Agency ...

In a letter to Nature, an international team of researchers reveals it has produced the first 3D picture of dark matter. This map has been created by combining hundreds of images taken by the ...

This map shows the dark matter distribution over about 1/30th of the entire sky. The data come from gravitational lensing measurements of 26 million galaxies.

Dark matter might sound strange, but it is a well-supported explanation for the universe's mysteries.

Hidden information in maps of galaxies spread across the universe could soon come forth, thanks to a new way of interrogating the data that preserves the three-dimensional nature of these maps.
