and recipient of the £100,000 prize, said: “We don’t know what dark energy is. It’s the name we give to something we don’t understand so we can start talking about it. And when so little is known, even ruling things out feels like big progress.”
A popular theory is that dark energy is a “chameleon force”, which adjusts its properties according to the local environment. “In dense environments, your force becomes very short-range, but in empty space it becomes very long-range,” said Burrage. By precisely tracking the motion of the atoms using pulsed laser light, the team were looking for any unexpected accelerations that could be due to a chameleon force.
“With one upgrade of the experiment we hope to close that window,” Burrage said. “It’s definitely technologically achievable.” Some may be deterred by the narrow odds of a breakthrough in a field where so little is known, but for Burrage this is the attraction of working on dark energy.

Europe’s ‘moderated’ winter affects global energy marketEurope’s “moderated” winter has caused the global energy market to “settle down a bit” amid Australia’s current energy price crisis, Lead Writer of The Australian Graham Lloyd says. “We’ve started the new year pretty much where we left off last year – with a bit of confusion and uncertainty in the energy markets,” Mr Lloyd told Sky News Australia. “The impact of the government’s interventions won’t be known for a long time and it will really decide the relations between the industry and the government and that’ll be what matters.”
