A new method will allow catching particles with a microscopic charge, born in supernova explosions. They arrive after neutrinos, like a delayed wave. Perhaps dark matter is made of exactly such particles.
Star S4714 orbits the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way on an extremely tight path, dipping into a hypothetical dark matter density spike. Scientists have shown that elastic scattering of dark matter particles off hydrogen nuclei and electrons can transfer energy to the star com
