Indirect detection experiments might be the key to discovering invisible dark matter.

Reports by groups including Dark Energy Survey and Large Area Telescope scientists may provide new clues about the properties of mysterious dark matter.

Two recent meetings at SLAC brought together experts working on computer hardware and software for LSST – a future telescope that will provide unprecedented views of the sky and may solve some of the biggest mysteries of the universe.

The LSST system will alert scientists to changes in space in near-real time.

A previous study claiming the discovery of gravitational waves as cosmic inflation’s fingerprint has most likely been over-interpreted, scientists found in a joint analysis between the Planck and BICEP2 experiments.

Plans to build the world’s largest digital camera at SLAC have reached a major milestone, with funding approval for the 3,200-megapixel camera. The camera will be the centerpiece of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), which will provide unprecedented details...

Abel, associate physics professor at Stanford and at SLAC and acting director of KIPAC, was recognized for the advances he’s made using supercomputers to explore the first billion years of cosmic history.

Cosmic inflation refers to a period of rapid, accelerated expansion that scientists think took place about 14 billion years ago.

Astrophysicists inspire space-related projects at a 24-hour hack-a-thon in San Francisco.

In September, DES will make data collected in its first season freely available to researchers.

A team of scientists generated a giant cosmic simulation—and now they're giving it away.

Brian Greene welcomes the Internet to physics class with World Science U.
