The Higgs Portal to Dark Matter at the LHC
If dark matter has interactions beyond gravity, we hope to learn about its nature at collider experiments. Weak interactions with the Higgs boson, the Higgs portal, suggest the presence of mediator particles within the energy reach of the LHC.
Sensitive dark matter detector comes to life
The world’s largest and most sensitive dark matter experiment has come to life and is delivering results, moving a step closer to offering clues about one of the biggest mysteries of the Universe.
Swim Pressure: Stress Generation in Active Matter
AbstractWe discover a new contribution to the pressure (or stress) exerted by a suspension of self-propelled bodies. Through their self-motion, all active matter systems generate a unique swim pressure that is entirely athermal in origin. The origin
Dark matter riddle comes to light
Latest research suggests that dark matter is more evenly spread across the Universe than previously thought
First axion results from the XENON100 experiment
Which is better: a dark matter WIMP or the Imp from GoT (Game of Thrones)? ... They could be an excellent dark matter candidate and could also solve the CPV problem.
On the programmed assembly of colloidal matter
Self-assembly of colloidal particles has enormous potential as a bottom-up means of structure fabrication because of the scope for tuning the interparticle interactions[1,2]. However, examples of colloidal self-assembly into target structures via a

Discovery of a new matter -antimatter difference
The LHCb experiment has observed a matter -antimatter difference in the neutral B. ... A new discovery by the LHCb experiment means scientists have taken a further in understanding the difference between matter and anti- matter .
Dark Matter and Creativity
The Physics and Astronomy Society, in collaboration with the School of Physics and Astronomy, are proud to welcome Dr Fran Chadha-Day for the first General Interest Seminar of the year. Join us for her talk, 'Dark Matter and Creativity', with a Q&A
