Experimental Approach May Reveal Dark Matter’s Physical Traits
NEWARK, Del., May 7, 2021 — A multi-institutional collaboration of engineers has developed an experimental approach for the detection of dark matter. While scientists are sure that dark matter — which accounts for 85% of the matter in the universe — exists by its gravitational effects, they have yet to find any direct evidence of the substance. “It could be made up of black holes, or it could be made up of something trillions of times smaller than an electron, known as ultralight dark
