    Analysis scours 276 days of data from world’s most sensitive detector. Experimental results from the XENON1T dark matter detector limit the effective size of dark matter particles to 4.1 x 10-47 square centimeters – one-trillionth of one-trillionth of a centimeter squared – the most stringent limit yet determined for dark matter as established by the world’s most sensitive detector.

    The results, presented Monday in a seminar in Italy at the Gran Sasso Undergr...
