ZA_2_20 — Dark Matter & Dark Energy

Approximately 95% of the universe's total energy content consists of two components that have never been directly detected: dark matter (~26.4%) and dark energy (~68.7%), with ordinary baryonic matter comprising only ~4.

ZA_2_08 — Modified Gravity Theories: MOND, f(R), and Alternatives to Dark Matter

Modified gravity theories attempt to explain the "missing mass" problem — the discrepancy between observed gravitational effects and visible matter — without invoking dark matter particles. The most empirically successfu

ZA_3_11 — Cosmic Ray Physics and Ultra-High-Energy Particles

Cosmic rays — high-energy particles (primarily protons, alpha particles, and heavier atomic nuclei, with a small fraction of electrons and antimatter) that bombard Earth from space — were discovered by Victor Hess in 191

ZA_3_14 — Nuclear Astrophysics: The Cosmic Forges of the Elements

Nuclear astrophysics — the study of nuclear reactions that power stars and produce the chemical elements — addresses one of the most profound questions in science: where did the elements come from? The answer, pieced tog
