With this book, you embark on an exciting search for dark matter, which constitutes a major part of the mass of our universe, according to the current state of research. The author clearly explains which key observations have led to the inclusion of an invisible mass component in the standard model of our universe. The focus is on the "observations" of the invisible: starting with the early indications of the strange cohesion of galaxy clusters and moving on to current observations such as cosmic background radiation. In addition, you will learn about the direct and indirect measuring methods currently being used by researchers to try to track down dark matter and what might hide behind the phenomenon. " The mystery of dark matter " is a book for all those who want to learn what is actual known about the invisible mass that dominates our universe and what are the approaches to track down the mystery.This book is a translation of the original German edition “Das Rätsel Dunkle Materie” by “Wolfgang Kapferer” published by Springer-Verlag GmbH Deutschland in 2018.The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.”weiterlesen
