Theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking warns that the recently discovered Higgs Boson, sometimes called the “God particle,” has the potential to destroy the Universe. Hawking writes.
The Higgs potential has the worrisome feature that it might become metastable at energies above 100bn gigaelectronvolts (GeV). This could mean that the universe could undergo catastrophic vacuum decay, with a bubble of the true vacuum expanding at the speed of light. This could happen at any time and we wouldn’t see it coming.
For Dr. Hawking to admit that they have captured a particle of God would be admitting that there IS a God.
Dark matter is arguably one of the universe’s most perplexing mysteries. Astronomers have gathered overwhelming evidence that it makes up roughly 84% of the [combination of baryonic and non-baryonic matter in the] universe roughly!26.8% of the total universe.” Or words to that effect. dark energy which, by current theory, accounts for roughly 68% of the universe. So this will add up to 94.8% let us say 95% but where is the other 5% of the total energy in our universe? I think it must be undiscovered energy in shape of super radiation particles .
The bible and the Quran mentioned that God creates the light , then God formed the light.and also God creates the darkness. Now I want you to understand and read carefully that God must creates the dark mater . Because if we assume that there is nothing in the dark, God will not creates nothing it is not logic. So why creates darkness ? he creates the dark matter to get the universe going and he also creates the light from his own living light first and then form the light to make the day and night and make the beginning of time , forming something like molding it to fit certain time and place with certain energy ,as we see in gamma rays ,microwave, infrared and ultraviolet, radio waves etc.
Right now, astrophysicists are at a real loss if you ask them what the universe is made of. A big chunk of it (26.8% to be exact), is composed of dark matter, which is inherently invisible and not well understood.
As far as astrophysicists can tell, dark matter is an exotic type of particle that doesn’t interact with anything we can see. Because of this quality, it’s nearly impossible to detect. The only reason scientists are convinced dark matter exists at all is because of the gravitational influence it has on other objects, like galaxies and stars.
I also think that Aether has mass and is displaced by the particles of matter which exist in it and move through it. There is no such thing as non-baryonic dark matter anchored to matter. Matter moves through and displaces the aether. The Milky Way’s halo is the state of displacement of the aether. Displaced aether pushing back and exerting inward pressure toward matter is gravity. The state of displacement of the aether *is* gravity.
I also would like the scientists who come up with 845 dark mater to explain
What is the amount of this gamma ray flux? We could assume that if this flux were high enough then the 84% of matter being dark is the end result of large self annihilation, and so the percent of matter being dark must have been higher in the past, perhaps 90, 95 or even a higher percent in the distant past. If true what are the implications? Could a very large value for dark matter be implicated in the formation of supermassive black holes?
Here is my argument Do you know that there is trillions of tons of gold and platinum at the bottom of Earth’s iron core. On the other hand, dark matter, by definition, does not radiate, so it clumps very inefficiently, which is why it is appears mostly in galactic halos, and is so hard to detect. Gas cannot clump to form stars or galaxies except by radiating away gravitational and thermal energy. A super nova may compress gas around it, but the gas will just spring back to its former diffuse state if it does not radiate away energy while it’s hot.
Scientists assume that dark matter density decays exponentially away from the galactic center, as if it has reached perfect thermal equilibrium with the galaxy‘s gravitational well. But this puts the bulk of the galaxy’s dark matter right in the middle. Isn’t dark matter characteristically lurking in the galactic halo, like it should? So I think NASA and other agencies should consider hiring quality control astrophysicist to check the pro and con of these theories before they published it. Who am I to judge , I am just a sonographer who love science in the middle of this universe.
There is so much we don’t know about gamma ray emitters in the universe, though. May I point out that it wasn’t until the 1990s that gamma rays were discovered shooting up into space from the tops of terrestrial thunderstorms. (This discovery was made from 250 miles in space by the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory.) It seems to me that pulsars (conventional) and dark matter (unconventional) may not be the only explanations for the observations.
I also would love to see is a graph plotting star size versus number of stars. Are red dwarfs (the most numerous of stars) on the extreme right hand side of a bell curve? Are brown dwarfs millions/billions/trillions of times more common?
I ask the astrophysicist this question ; Is Dark Matter affected by gravity such that one would expect to find more of it in a galaxy rather than in intergalactic space? Can we detect, or have we detected objects in interstellar and intergalactic space that occulated stars or “large flat field light sources” like nebulas and galaxies so that we can see a pattern of blinking as the near object passes in front of many far light sources?
Scientists mentioned that dark mater extra gravity provides the most straightforward explanation for the rotations of individual galaxies, the motions of distant galaxy clusters, and the bending of distant starlight.
So what is this elusive matter? A popular theory is that it consists of a yet-undiscovered exotic massive particle that barely interacts with normal matter. These particles have so far eluded detection. But theoretically they act as their own antiparticles, and can annihilate to produce a cascade of familiar particles, including electrons and positrons. The collision should generate gamma-rays — the most energetic photons in nature.
NASA’s FGRS Telescope has been scouring the sky in search of this tell-tale annihilation signature since its launch in 2008. While the telescope has spotted a large number of gamma rays pouring outward from the center of our galaxy, astronomers have not been able to determine if this detection is due to dark matter annihilation or other natural particle accelerators.
Percentage is always changing by scientists every time they discover new particle !
The most likely culprits for the latter alternative are undetected pulsars. These rotating neutron stars beam huge amounts of energy out of their poles, including matter-antimatter pairs that can annihilate in bursts of gamma rays.
A team of astronomers led by Tansu Daylan (Harvard University) has further scrutinized the excess Fermi signal, and has ruled out pulsars as the cause. This leads to the conclusion that the signal must be due to annihilating dark matter — a claim that would resolve one of the biggest mysteries in physics.
“If our interpretation is correct, this signal would constitute the discovery of an entirely new particle that makes up the majority of the mass found in the universe,” says coauthor Dan Hooper (Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory). “I can’t find words that are strong enough to
capture the significance of such a discovery.”
The problem is the galactic center is extremely bright and dense. Billions of stars give off an incredible amount of light alone, making the core hard to map precisely and uncover hidden sources of gamma-ray radiation, such as pulsars. The team was able to precisely comb through the data and subtract known sources of gamma rays, ultimately producing a sharp map that extends nearly 5,000 light-years in all directions away from the galactic center.
There are far fewer stars so far away from the galactic center, and if pulsars were indeed the cause of the gamma-ray signal, we would be able to see several as individual gamma-ray sources. But we don’t. That fact is compelling evidence that pulsars do not exist at such a large distance away from the galactic center, and that the excess gamma-rays must be due to dark matter annihilation alone.If this is the case and the glimmer of gamma-rays from the inner galaxy is the afterglow from annihilating dark matter particles then their detected energy levels indicate that they most likely originate from dark matter particles with a mass range from 31 to 40 GeV.
To verify the gamma-ray excess, astronomers are pointing their telescopes toward less bright sources, particularly dwarf galaxies. Such dim sources are expected to be rich in dark matter but not in other natural particle accelerators, such as pulsars. However, there is currently too little data to determine whether there is a similar excess emanating from these dwarf galaxies.
Many scientists argue the most convincing evidence for dark matter particles will come from mine shafts deep underground or massive particle accelerators, where physicists are working hard to directly detect the impacts of individual particles. While no direct detection has been made yet, a particle mass of 31 to 40 GeV could be seen with the Large Hadron Collider. It may take another few years, but astronomers are potentially on the verge of cracking one of the universe’s most compelling mysteries.
Now let go back to the holy books and see the periods of time God use the word day .God created the light from his own living light, then he formed the light to creates all other source of energies, wave forms and particles , then God created in the same day the darkness winch is the dark matter and dark energy to hold the universe together. He then created the gases , smoke and clouds of many particles that examining and the water form from the H2O . God used the water to creates every living things in the universe , the water was covering the entire universe not just this earth ,Imagine all the universe was water and God was in control his thrown was on water. He separates the water from the gas and clouds to split the different form of lands , and skies, moons and stars that formed and evolved. He creates from the dark matter and dark energy all the stars, suns , moons and planets and let them evolved and creates varieties of planets with water, ice, gold, diamonds, and every minerals that you think of pure and mix, then he creates and the trees and shrubs all the green and vegetation in all the universe not just in this earth .he created all living animal in the sea and the air like birds and fish all kind and sizes . he already created his angels from his living light and the other entities from fire that was part of the dark matter and smoke. the angel was directed to different assignment in the universe as Sheppard. While the falling angels, demons and the devil was castled away from the glory of God to earth .
This earth was inhibited by them and by the watchers .Most of the animal in the sea adopted to the land, some adopted to both land and sea and some stayed in the see . Many animal came back to the sea and evolved differently ,to different size and shape. the human was created in the end to replace the falling angels that were living in this earth and God gave control to the this new specious called human. God prepared the earth for them to test them and replace the falling angels , he also destroyed all the large animals, and vicious animal who were rooming the land and in doing so billions of them vanished with disasters, fire and flood, ice and other disasters . The humans evolved in different places and the rest is history. Now these creation didn’t happen in 6 human days . the day we know is different in length at the start of the time, God day is different than human day. Thats why we know that many people lived to be 950 years , 650 years and over in the old days .Now days no body can live more than 140 years . Scientists now discovering the dark matter that God already talked about it in the holy books 2000 years ago. God created darkness and the dark matter.
