Story summary
  • A July 2025 paper by Cumrun Vafa, Georges Obied, Alek Bedroya and David Wu finds the dark-dimension scenario matches DESI observations.
  • U.S. physicists propose a model that links dark energy and dark matter through a micron-scale dark dimension.
  • Cumrun Vafa and Georges Obied say the components interact, causing their strengths to decrease over time.
  • Marc Kamionkowski and Michael Kesden set an upper bound roughly twenty times larger than the predicted force.
