About this ebook

Dark Matter Evidence investigates the compelling scientific evidence for dark matter, a mysterious substance constituting about 85% of the universe's mass.
This exploration is vital for grasping galaxy formation and the cosmos's large-scale structure.

The book delves into astrophysical observations and particle physics research, revealing how galactic rotation curves defy Newtonian physics, suggesting unseen mass.
Gravitational lensing, where massive objects bend light, further supports dark matter's presence, subtly altering the cosmic microwave background.

The book systematically guides readers through complex topics, starting with the history of dark matter and fundamental concepts.
It then explores key evidence, such as galactic rotation curves, gravitational lensing, and the cosmic microwave background, demonstrating how these observations converge to support the existence of dark matter.

Leading particle candidates like WIMPs and axions are discussed, alongside ongoing detection efforts.
The book's interdisciplinary approach connects astrophysics, particle physics, and cosmology, emphasizing the complementary nature of various experimental methods, including data from the Hubble Space Telescope and the Large Hadron Collider.

It presents an authoritative and factual tone, making complex topics accessible while maintaining scientific rigor, addressing debates like Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) and its viability against current evidence.
