The Dark Matter Problem

The dark matter problem

first postulated in 1922 by swiss astronomer fritz zwicky, dark matter is a theroized form of matter which is needed to account for many discrepeancies we see in the large scale structures of the universe, such as the rotational speed of galaxies or the gravitational lensing effects from galaxy clusters. While we currently do not know much about the nature of dark matter, we can see that it ...

discovery and postulation

the need for dark matter first cartghrt me about in 1933 when a reasearcher named fritz zwicky working at the California Insitute of technology was invesgiating the coma galaxy cluster. Using two different methods to calculate the mass of the galaxy, one using the observed speeds of galaxies in the cluster and one using the luminosities he found that The dark matter problem
