The nature of the dark matter in the Universe is one of the hardest unsolved problems in modern physics. Indeed, on one hand, the overwhelming indirect evidence from astrophysics seems to leave no doubt about its existence; on the other hand, direct search experiments, especially those conducted with low background detectors in underground laboratories all over the world seem to deliver only null results, with a few debated exceptions. Furthermore, the lack of predicted candidates at the LHC energy scale has made this dichotomy even more puzzling. We will recall the most important phases of this novel branch of experimental astro-particle physics, analyzing the interconnections among the main projects involved in this challenging quest, and we will draw conclusions slightly different from how the problem is commonly understood.

  1. Cosmo-SPINN: Fuzzy Dark Matter Simulations with Physics-Informed Generative Networks

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Physics-informed generative U-Nets evolve and super-resolve fuzzy dark matter fields under Schrödinger–Poisson constraints with far less supervised data than pure data-driven baselines.

  2. Black hole spacetimes with dark matter spikes: Energy-momentum tensor and backreaction effects

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A dark-matter spike built from the full orbital motion of its particles has ~50% more energy density near the black hole and produces metric deviations ~2.5 times larger than mass-only models.

  3. Dark Matter Deficient Galaxies as Probes of Dark Matter

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    The separability condition εχ/εb ≤ μcrit/μi translates dark-matter-deficient galaxies into conditional constraints on dark-matter–baryon scattering, dissipative dark matter fractions, and fuzzy dark matter escape.
