NEW YORK: Dark matter may not be an exotic substance as has been assumed — a new theory proposes that it acts remarkably similar to subatomic particles known to science since the 1930s.
Dark matter is very similar to pions, which are responsible for binding atomic nuclei together, the study said.
“We have seen this kind of particle before. It has the same properties – same type of mass, the same type of interactions, in the same type of theory of strong interactions that gave forth the ordinary pions. It is incredibly exciting that we may finally understand why we came to exist,” said one of the researchers Hitoshi Murayama, professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley in the US.
