Theoretical Physicists Suggest There's A Portal Linking The Standard Model To Dark Physics

Fiona Macdonald Science Alert
March 26, 2017
Theoretical physicists have put forward a new hypothesis that aims to connect the world of visible physics to the hidden forces of our Universe: what if there's a portal that bridges the gap between the standard model to dark matter and dark energy?
The idea is that the reason we struggle to understand things such as dark matter and dark energy isn't because they don't exist - it's because we've been oblivious to a portal through which regular particles and these "dark particles" interact. And it's something that could be tested experimentally.

When Ernest O. Lawrence invented the cyclotron in 1932, the American physicist used his innovative particle accelerator to probe the structure of the atom. The cyclotron earned Lawrence the Nobel Prize and scientists today still use its offspring to get to the bottom of matter and even the universe itself.
