Scientists probe dark matter in a virtual universe – EarthSky
The new work reveals dark matter haloes as active regions of the sky, teeming with not only galaxies, but also radiation-emitting collisions that could make it possible to find dark matter haloes in the real sky.
Zoomed-in, computer-generated simulation of the distribution of dark matter in the universe, also referred to as the cosmic web. The small, spherical blobs of dark matter that appeared scattered throughout the image are identified by scientists as dark matter haloes, gravitationally bound structures within which galaxies form.
