wpautop enabled A model of DNA. Image: Research.govBy Olivia Solon, Wired UKA combined team of physicists and biologists aim to build a directional dark matter detector using strands of DNA and gold.If this is the case, Earth should experience a headwind of dark matter in front of it (coming form the direction of Cygnus) for half of the year and a tailwind for the other half of the year, depending on where it is on its orbit around the Sun.Many different groups are working to try and detect dark matter using expensive detectors in deep underground caverns, which protect them from radiation that could otherwise pollute the signal. They are focusing on finding the unique signature that the sea of dark matter supposedly produces as the Earth o...(read more)

... from Harvard say they can overcome challenges with detecting dark matter by using DNA to find the dark matter particles, called weakly interacting massive particles, or WIMPs.They have created a detector using a thin gold sheet with many single stra ...
