Space Time And Dark Matter: The Hidden Sectors Of Particle Physics And Cosmology

As the name suggests, the "dark matter" does not interact with the "luminous matter" through interactions different from gravity, or it possibly couples weakly with the other cosmic components. The high dark matter content of the Universe reveals its existence across different "space time" scales by perturbing the kinematical and dynamical properties of galaxies, and clusters of galaxies, lensing the cosmic background radiations, driving the cosmological evolution phases, clustering the vis...
