Scientists Narrow Down Where Dark Matter Could Be Hiding

The XENONnT experiment has pushed the search for dark matter to unprecedented sensitivity.

Using a massive liquid-xenon detector and machine learning, researchers found no definitive signal but set powerful new limits on axion-like particles and dark photons. Reaching the “neutrino fog” also marks a major milestone, helping guide the next generation of dark matter experiments.
