LONDON: A new study published Thursday in Science suggests that dark matter might be able to zip through the universe without slowing or dragging because particles of it don’t even interact with each other.
Based on what we can observe about the universe, galaxies should be tearing themselves apart. That’s where so-called dark matter comes in: It’s a term for the as-of-yet unobserved matter that must be bulking up cosmos, giving galaxies the gravity they need to spin at the rates they do without falling to pieces. But even though we haven’t caught dark matter (so named because it doesn’t interact with light the way normal matter does — noT absorbing or reflecting it — though it does bend light with a weird lensing effect) in a straightforward observation, scientists can learn ab0ut it based on the effects it has on more typical, observable forms of matter.
