Can Axions Save the Universe?
Briefly

Axions, theorized as incredibly light particles, could make up most of the universe's matter, forming a potential hidden structure of galaxies and cosmic relationships.
The Axion Dark Matter eXperiment, led by physicist Gray Rybka, aims to create axions using strong magnetic fields, reflecting a decade-long search for this elusive particle.
Existing telescopes have limitations; by analyzing black hole behaviors and the shapes of early galaxies, astronomers seek evidence of axions, yet none have been conclusively identified.
Current understanding posits that only one-sixth of the universe's matter is visible, with dark matter accounting for the remainder, crucial for maintaining the universe's gravitational structure.
