A post was made few days ago, in here, courtesy of Physics Today where the excerpt from their post was: A seasonal signal in the otherwise uniform cosmic x-ray background could conceivably be the result of axions streaming from the Sun and converting to x rays in Earths magnetic field. Axions, in case you didnt know, are hypothesized particles that resolve the problem of why quantum chromodynamics doesnt break CP symmetry. Because axions have mass and dont interact strongly with other matter, they could also account for dark matter. Whatever the news be, until and unless it is not confirmed with a 5 sigma certainty (or more) we should take these news with a grain of salt, although I am somewhat happy about the findings. :) Further reading: ras.org.uk/news-and-press/2524-curious-signal-hints-at-dark-matter
