Foggy start to the day at UCLA this morning for the biennial UCLA Dark Matter Symposium, the largest dark matter conference in the world, which started in 1994, under lead organization by Prof. David Cline.
My first attendance of the series was as a graduate student in 1998, where the two groups detecting the acceleration of the Universe first reported their results. #cosmology #darkmatter #particlephysics #physics #astronomy
Was recommended Dark Matter and definitely does not disappoint!
“Well, maybe it’s oligons.”
Great. Wolfram has an idea about what #DarkMatter is. It’s unobservable too. Of course it is.

The Brighter Side of News: Scientists think they discovered what existed before the Big Bang…
#Darkmatter has baffled physicists for nearly a century, quietly shaping our #universe 's unseen framework. Invisible yet influential, it provides the gravity necessary to hold #galaxies together... #science #space #physics #bigbang
[Zoom on the #CosmicWeb] Have you dived into the deep fields of #Euclid revealed this Wednesday by the @ec_euclid ? Have you navigated between the thousands of #galaxies of different shapes, sizes, colors and masses? So many objects, near and far, fill our #Universe! https://sky.esa.int/esasky/?hide_welcome=true&hide_banner_info=true&hips=DES-DR2+ColorIRG&sci=false&layout=esasky&euclid_image=EDFS
What if their spatial distribution could tell us something about two mysterious components : #DarkMatter and #DarkEnergy? This is the gamble taken by the scientists involved in the Euclid mission. To do so, they've designed some unrivalled #instruments: a camera with great depth of field and high resolution records the variety of shapes and spatial distribution of galaxies, while a #spectrometer coupled with a #photometer can determine the distances and masses of galaxies ...

We are particularly interested in contributions that show how and with which “tools” we can contribute to moving towards an inclusive future that may still be utopia today.

The article doesn’t say too much, but is it surprising to find the universe may be more complicated than we currently think it is?

Another one: "the new data did not contain any major revelations about dark matter and dark energy. That will have to wait until closer to the end of Euclid's mission"
They _hope_ that by the end of Euclid's mission observations will enable new revelations.
"the collider has so far failed to deliver further, much-anticipated discoveries, such as the nature of dark matter"
Such as the presumed nature of hypothesised #DarkMatter.
The Euclid space telescope captures 26 million galaxies in a first data drop.
The European Space Agency has released the first batch of large-scale images from the Euclid space telescope, which astronomers have already used to find hundreds of strong gravitational lenses.
During a six-year mission, Euclid will image about one-third of the sky to illuminate how dark matter and dark energy behave on cosmic scales.

(and, these are related articles, imho)
"A fundamental symmetry in physics, known as CPT (charge, parity, and time reversal) symmetry, implies that processes occur in mirrored pairs. In my model, this #symmetry ensures that when our universe emerges in one time direction, an anti-universe emerges in the opposite time direction. Although these two branches are classically separate, they remain quantum mechanically entangled…"

At the centre of our galaxy sit huge clouds of positively charged hydrogen…normally the gas is neutral. So, what is supplying enough energy to knock the negatively charged electrons out of them?
"The energy signatures radiating from this part of our Galaxy suggest that there is a constant, roiling source of energy doing just that, and our data says it might come from a much lighter form of #darkmatter than current models consider."
#DarkMatter May Be Annihilating Itself at the Heart of the #MilkyWay

Exciting discovery at the heart of our galaxy! Scientists have identified a cosmic anomaly at the Milky Way's center, potentially unveiling secrets of the invisible universe. This finding could deepen our understanding of dark matter and the cosmos.
