GarlickOur galaxy is not as well-blended as scientists occasionally think, according to brand-new research.That new study mainly focuses on the distribution of what astronomers consider metals-- which is genuinely just every component besides hydrogen and helium, even when...
Scientists launched the first set of gamma photon data acquired by the Dark Matter Particle Explorer.Credit: DAMPE CollaborationFor the very first time, in May of 2021, China's Dark Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) Collaboration directly observed a spectral softening of helium nuclei of around 34TeV. Now, we have even more excellent news from the satellite-based...
