This mysterious substance, which makes up nearly 85% of the Universe’s mass<\/a>, remains one of the most significant mysteries in modern physics.<\/p>\n A recent breakthrough study, involving substantial contributions from Universit\u00e9 de Sherbrooke physics professor Maia Vergniory, has taken a significant step toward solving this cosmic enigma to uncover the properties of dark matter.<\/p>\n Dark matter is an undetectable form of matter that does not interact with light, making it invisible to conventional observation methods.<\/p>\n Scientists infer its existence through its gravitational effects, such as its role in holding galaxies together and bending light from distant celestial objects.<\/p>\n The concept of dark matter was first proposed in the 1930s to explain why the Universe’s observed mass was insufficient to account for its gravitational behaviour.<\/p>\nUnderstanding dark matter<\/h3>\n
