Scientists are using “trapped ions” in highly precise experiments to search for a new, fifth force of nature that could help explain elusive dark matter. The invisible dark matter is one of the ...

In a groundbreaking study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists from ETH Zurich, in collaboration with teams from Germany and Australia, have made strides in the search for a potential ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich (Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich), along with teams from Germany and Australia, have made some incredibly precise measurements using calcium atoms—and the results ...

A fifth fundamental force, perhaps discovered as part of the search for dark matter, has been reported in a new paper(Opens in a new window) published in Physical ...

Dark matter may be invisible, but scientists are getting closer to understanding whether it follows the same rules as everything we can see. By comparing how galaxies move through cosmic gravity wells ...

Some physicists believe that a fifth fundamental force could be the cause of some observational anomalies. A study is investigating ways to closely examine the trajectories of well-documented ...
