    Roughly 85 percent of mass in the universe is "dark matter" -- mysterious material that can't be directly observed but has an immense influence on the cosmos. What exactly is this strange stuff, and what does it have to do with our existence? Astrophysicist Risa Wechsler explores why dark matter may be the key to understanding how the universe formed -- and shares how physicists in labs around the world are coming up with creative ways to study it.

    I love it so much when someone can explain advanced science clearly to me. I am not a scientist and I don't naturally think like one, so exciting insights into the nature of our lives wouldn't be available to me if there weren't people on this Earth who have the ability--a gift--to make what our species is learning clear and comprehensible in layman's terms. I'm just so thankful for that. Thank you articulate scientists for not keeping us in the dark! :)

      This is the problem with education - we teach children to 'know the answers' but at the highest level of the scientific art we accept 'I'm still searching' - perhaps she's earned the right by way of a PhD to say 'not sure yet' but isn't that something? We punish kids for not knowing until they earn the right to not know by searching for something that's difficult to explain

    The weirdest thing about dark matter is NOT that is doesn't react with normal baryonic matter BUT the fact that it doesn't react with itself.
    We could expect that dark matter could be submitted to the interaction of the forces that created it but it seems that is not the case.
    Think about that: it would certainly coalesce in some dark matter [?] stars if it could, and sometimes those gravitational pits would mix with stars' gravitational pits, thus adding to the gravity of the system then boosting the pressure and nuclear activity of those stars. We would see many low mass stars shining like bigger ones. We would have supernovae much more often since smaller stars could achieve iron fusion.
    But we don't see any of it. No hint of it at all.
    So even if you reach a critical mass of dark matter that would normally collapse in a star, the collapse is never achieved since dark matter would just continue it's way just right through itself and never pile up. So dark matter is just wandering around like a thin gas.
    But! And it's a big but: I don't think dark matter can escape a black hole since it''s sensitive to gravity (time-space curvature). So, a big part of the mass of the oldest black holes must have been made dark matter.
    That actually might explain the existence of supermassive black holes since those seem to have been formed pretty soon after the Big Bang when dark matter's density was way higher than it is today.
    You see, there is an upper limit at the speed of what a black hole can gobble up. Normal matter when it get heated up in the accretion disk radiates so much energy that it blows part of the gas falling and slow down the amount of matter reaching the black hole. But with dark matter, that wouldn't happen. (Ok, right, dark matter may radiate some form of energy that can only interacts with other dark matter particles, but I doubt that). So, early supermassive black holes may have been mainly filled up with dark matter.

      As I replied to another comment:
      I would suggest it's the 4th-infinitith at diminishing fractions of the 1st-3rd.
      We can observe and measure 1-3, but 4+ is always there, beyond our perception.
      Therefore, the mass we measure is 3d, but the mass gravity responds to is 4+.
      Thus our gravitational constant has 4+d matter built in, because it was calculated from experiments in 3d. But astronomical observations only "see" 3d, and therefore don't "see" enough matter to make the gravity equations work. They aren't out there measuring up the weight of stars, they are thumbnailing from distant observations.

      1) Ratio of mass of Dark Matter vs. Visible matter: local measurement of gravitational pull and kinematics of stars in galaxies, and galaxies in the clusters. In more detail, we measure what we see (gas, dust, and stars in galaxies and between the galaxies), and their kinematics. Knowing how gravity between those objects would result in kinematics (Galileo, Kepler, Newton) that we do NOT see in real galaxies. We see that galaxies (stars within) are rotating as there is more mass than what we see. Also, intracluster gas and the galaxies in clusters move as there is some additional mass somewhere around. We proposed many hardly visual objects (heavy particles, Back Holes, brown dwarf, invisible gas, ...), but by deduction and better observations, we eliminated those candidates.
      2) Ratio between Matter (Dark+visible) and Dark energy: assumptions about the universe, and how it expands. We measure how fast the universe expands, which depends on the ratio between gravitational energy (source in dark+visible matter) and some energy causing expansion. Also, different ratio between Dark energy and gravitational energy would end up with different slopes of densities of matter throughout the space (= how concentrated the density of matter is), and different look of the cosmic microwave background (CMB, CMBR).

    • @TheLivirus
      @TheLivirus Před 4 lety +2

      An educated guess: Orbital period is related to mass, so by observing how fast stellar objects rotate in a galaxy as a function of distance from its center, you may infer approximately how much mass is involved.

      Also: gravitational lensing. Gravity bends light. So by measuring how strongly light bends around a gallaxy, its mass can be inferred. The lensing can be observed by comparing how the apparent positions of more distant objects are distorted as a massive object passes in front of them.

    Some entity out there in TED land, who has the resources to do so, please do my gravity test to see if my Theory Of Everything is correct, so that species from this Earth might survive beyond this Earth:
    (Reusable code from my files):
    Here is the test for the 'gravity' portion of my TOE idea. I do not have the necessary resources to do the test but maybe you or someone else reading this does, will do the test, then tell the world what is found out either way.
    a. Imagine a 12 hour clock.
    b. Put a magnetic field across from the 3 to 9 o'clock positions.
    c. Put an electric field across from the 6 to 12 o'clock positions.
    (The magnetic field and electric field would be 90 degrees to each other and should be polarized so as to complement each other.)
    d. Shoot a high powered laser through the center of the clock at 90 degrees to the em fields.
    e. Do this with the em fields on and off.
    (The em fields could be varied in size, strength, density and depth. The intent would be to energy frequency match the laser and em fields for optimal results.)
    f. Look for any gravitational / anti-gravitational effects.
    (Including the utilization of ferro cells so as to be able to actually see the energy field movements.)
    (And note: if done right, it's possible a mini gravitational black hole might form. Be ready for it.)
    (An alternative to the above would be to shoot 3 high powered lasers, or a single high powered laser split into 3 beams, each adjustable to achieve the above set up, all focused upon a single point in space.)
    'If' effects are noted, 'then' further research could be done.
    'If' effects are not noted, 'then' my latest TOE idea is wrong. But still, we would know what 'gravity' was not, which is still something in the scientific world. Science still wins either way and moves forward.
    Revised TOE: 3/25/2017a.
    My Current TOE:
    THE SETUP:
    1. Modern science currently recognizes four forces of nature: The strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, gravity, and electromagnetism.
    2. In school we are taught that with magnetism, opposite polarities attract and like polarities repel. But inside the arc of a large horseshoe magnet it's the other way around, like polarities attract and opposite polarities repel. (I have proved this to myself with magnets and anybody with a large horseshoe magnet and two smaller bar magnets can easily prove this to yourself too. It occurs at the outer end of the inner arc of the horseshoe magnet.).
    3. Charged particles have an associated magnetic field with them.
    4. Protons and electrons are charged particles and have their associated magnetic fields with them.
    5. Photons also have both an electric and a magnetic component to them.
    FOUR FORCES OF NATURE DOWN INTO TWO:
    6. When an electron is in close proximity to the nucleus, it would basically generate a 360 degree spherical magnetic field.
    7. Like charged protons would stick together inside of this magnetic field, while simultaneously repelling opposite charged electrons inside this magnetic field, while simultaneously attracting the opposite charged electrons across the inner portion of the electron's moving magnetic field.
    8. There are probably no such thing as "gluons" in actual reality.
    9. The strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force are probably derivatives of the electro-magnetic field interactions between electrons and protons.
    10. The nucleus is probably an electro-magnetic field boundary.
    11. Quarks also supposedly have a charge to them and then would also most likely have electro-magnetic fields associated with them, possibly a different arrangement for each of the six different type of quarks.
    12. The interactions between the quarks EM forces are how and why protons and neutrons formulate as well as how and why protons and neutrons stay inside of the nucleus and do not just pass through as neutrinos do.
    THE GEM FORCE INTERACTIONS AND QUANTA:
    13. Personally, I currently believe that the directional force in photons is "gravity". It's the force that makes the sine wave of EM energy go from a wide (maximum extension) to a point (minimum extension) of a moving photon and acts 90 degrees to the EM forces which act 90 degrees to each other. When the EM gets to maximum extension, "gravity" flips and EM goes to minimum, then "gravity" flips and goes back to maximum, etc, etc. A stationary photon would pulse from it's maximum extension to a point possibly even too small to detect, then back to maximum, etc, etc.
    14. I also believe that a pulsating, swirling singularity (which is basically a pulsating, swirling 'gem' photon) is the energy unit in this universe.
    15. When these pulsating, swirling energy units interact with other energy units, they tangle together and can interlock at times. Various shapes (strings, spheres, whatever) might be formed, which then create sub-atomic material, atoms, molecules, and everything in existence in this universe.
    16. When the energy units unite and interlock together they would tend to stabilize and vibrate.
    17. I believe there is probably a Photonic Theory Of The Atomic Structure.
    18. Everything is basically "light" (photons) in a universe entirely filled with "light" (photons).
    THE MAGNETIC FORCE SPECIFICALLY:
    19. When the electron with it's associated magnetic field goes around the proton with it's associated magnetic field, internal and external energy oscillations are set up.
    20. When more than one atom is involved, and these energy frequencies align, they add together, specifically the magnetic field frequency.
    21. I currently believe that this is where a line of flux originates from, aligned magnetic field frequencies.
    NOTES:
    22. The Earth can be looked at as being a massive singular interacting photon with it's magnetic field, electrical surface field, and gravity, all three photonic forces all being 90 degrees from each other.
    23. The flat spiral galaxy can be looked at as being a massive singular interacting photon with it's magnetic fields on each side of the plane of matter, the electrical field along the plane of matter, and gravity being directed towards the galactic center's black hole where the gravitational forces would meet, all three photonic forces all being 90 degrees from each other.
    24. As below in the singularity, as above in the galaxy and probably universe as well.
    25. I believe there are only two forces of nature, Gravity and EM, (GEM). Due to the stability of the GEM with the energy unit, this is also why the forces of nature haven't evolved by now. Of which with the current theory of understanding, how come the forces of nature haven't evolved by now since the original conditions acting upon the singularity aren't acting upon them like they originally were, billions of years have supposedly elapsed, in a universe that continues to expand and cool, with energy that could not be created nor destroyed would be getting less and less dense? My theory would seem to make more sense if in fact it is really true. I really wonder if it is in fact really true.
    26. And the universe would be expanding due to these pulsating and interacting energy units and would also allow galaxies to collide, of which, how could galaxies ever collide if they are all speeding away from each other like is currently taught?
    DISCLAIMER:
    27. As I as well as all of humanity truly do not know what we do not know, the above certainly could be wrong. It would have to be proved or disproved to know for more certainty.

      You would like the magnet research of Mr. Ward, the Texan electrician who shows how to make an energy feedback loop with a drill, an electric generator and an osoloscope. Once you power up the drill motor into the generator and through the scope, you can observe the start up energy, and the generator energy combined. When you disconnect the start up source, the generator powers the drill, and has extra electricity available. He makes his experiments public and coined the phrase "Ward Force" to explain the energy where positive and negative poles meet.

But as we know planets and stars are moving away from each other then the question raises, how come? And the answer to that is,,,, loss of energy. No process is 100% efficient... it will lose some of the energy that was applied. And that lost energy causes the elastic affect on the distance

And we know it does take up that much.
      100 suns is an infinitesimal fraction of how many stars there exists. There's 100 billion stars (100000000000) in our galaxy, and there is 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe. Mind boggolingly large numbers.

      as in like missing 100 sun mass in the solar system to give an idea of what we dont know

    Dark matter is really matter to our whole university, these visiable matter is just a cluster of dark matter, dark matter can be treated as the ash of enery.

    I would like to suggest an experiment where a small blast is made inside a vacuumed room with 360 degree sensors to observe the effect of blast on all the sides of blast location and observing the differences in observation can give us clues about dark matter & dark energy

    Feels like science took a wrong turn somewhere along the way when normal matter is considered to make up less than 5% of our universe, the rest is something too dark to see, detect or comprehend.

    Every spiritual and science text say the same thing, "there was nothing in the beginning just an energy source" and my friend you're a part of it.
    I guess, what we call soul or spirit or the life energy is a kind of dark energy.

    What if dark matter or the matter we can't perceive. Exists on multiple planes of existence, such perceivable and non perceivable existence. And what if dark matter exists in nonlinear time. Which could explain why we can see its affects on things we can see and have knowledge of. But not it itself. A perplexed thing dark matter is.
