Photo shows a prototype device designed by the MIT team to produce a very narrow, high-powered beam of electrons for an experiment called DarkLight. The device was tested at the Jefferson National Accelerator Facility to confirm that it could meet the requirements needed to detect a hypothesized particle based on one theory about the nature of dark matter.

Dark matter, believed by physicists to outweigh all the normal matter in the universe by more than five to one, is by definition invisible. But certain features associated with dark matter might be detectable, according to some of the many competing theories describing this elusive matter. Now scientists at MIT and elsewhere have developed a tool that could test some of these predictions and thus prove, or disprove, one of the leading theories.
