  2. Dark matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter

    It is dark matter composed of constituents with an FSL much smaller than a protogalaxy. This is the focus for dark matter research, as hot dark matter does not seem capable of supporting galaxy or galaxy cluster formation, and most particle candidates slowed early. The constituents of cold dark matter are unknown.

  3. Dark energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_energy

    The density of dark matter in an expanding universe decreases more quickly than dark energy, and eventually the dark energy dominates. Specifically, when the volume of the universe doubles, the density of dark matter is halved, but the density of dark energy is nearly unchanged (it is exactly constant in the case of a cosmological constant).

  4. Structure formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_formation

    As a result, dark matter begins to collapse into a complex network of dark matter halos well before ordinary matter, which is impeded by pressure forces. Without dark matter, the epoch of galaxy formation would occur substantially later in the universe than is observed. The physics of structure formation in this epoch is particularly simple, as ...

    Dark matter is called ‘dark’ because it’s invisible to us and does not measurably interact with anything other than gravity. It could be interspersed between the atoms that make up the Earth ...

    The discrepancies could also be explained by particular properties (stellar masses or effective volume) of the candidate galaxies, yet unknown force or particle outside of the Standard Model through which dark matter interacts, more efficient baryonic matter accumulation by the dark matter halos, early dark energy models, [102] or the ...

    Dark matter is a mysterious, invisible substance makes up more than 80 percent of all matter in the universe Science has found its first candidate for a dark-matter detector. It’s a really old rock

  9. Galaxy formation and evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy_formation_and_evolution

    Dark energy and dark matter account for most of the Universe's energy, so it is valid to ignore baryons when simulating large-scale structure formation (using methods such as N-body simulation). However, since the visible components of galaxies consist of baryons, it is crucial to include baryons in the simulation to study the detailed ...
