Though invisible to current direct detection methods, dark matter can explain a variety of astronomical observations. This book describes how this theory has developed over the past 75 years, and why it is now a central feature of extragalactic astronomy and cosmology. Current attempts to directly detect dark matter locally are discussed, together with the implications for particle physics. The author comments on the sociology of these developments, demonstrating how and why scientists work and interact. Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND), the leading alternative to this theory, is also presented. This fascinating overview will interest cosmologists, astronomers and particle physicists. Mathematics is kept to a minimum, so the book can be understood by non-specialists.Dark matter (Astronomy)HistoryDark matter (Astronomy)History.523.1/126Sanders Robert H.612252UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910458422003321The dark matter problem1998102UNINA01586nam 2200385 n 450 99639480350331620221108073727.0(CKB)3810000000011051(EEBO)2248520466(UnM)99122157200971(EXLCZ)99381000000001105119860117d1681 uy engurbn||||a|bb|Mr. Smyth's discovery of the Popish sham-plot in Ireland, contrived to correspond with their sham-plot in England[electronic resource] By which it appears, that it has been the joynt design of the papists in both kingdoms, to make people believe their real plot to be a sham-plot, and their sham-plot a real plot. : Necessary for the information of all His Majesties Protestant subjects.London, Printed for R.
