Milky Way’s dark side revealed – Tech Explorist
Scientists have obtained the first direct measurement of the average acceleration taking place within our home galaxy, the Milky Way.
In a new study, scientists obtained the first direct measurement of the average acceleration in our home galaxy, the Milky Way. Using pulsar data, scientists clocked the radial and vertical accelerations of stars within and outside the galactic plane.
Based on these new high-precision estimations and the known measure of visible matter in the universe, analysts were then able to calculate the Milky Way’s dark matter density without making the usual assumption that the galaxy is in a steady-state.
