The nature and essence of Dark Matter and Dark Energy have become the central issue in modern cosmology over the past years. This extensive volume, an outgrowth of a topical and tutorial summer school
This book brings together reviews from leading international authorities on the developments in the study of dark matter and dark energy, as seen from both their cosmological and particle physics side
To the eyes of the average person and the trained scientist, the night sky is dark, even though the universe is populated by myriads of bright galaxies. Why this happens is a question commonly called
If there are an infinite--or nearly infinite--number of stars in the universe, people began asking as modern astronomy became established, how could the sky ever be dark? It was non-scientists who fir
The eighth UCLA symposium on Sources and Detection of Dark Matter and Dark Energy in the Universe brought together astroparticle physicists and astronomers from around the world to share recent discov
All the matter and light we can see in the universe makes up a trivial 5 per cent of everything. The rest is hidden. This could be the biggest puzzle that science has ever faced.Since the 1970s, astro
Evalyn Gates, a talented astrophysicist, transports readers to the edge of contemporary science to explore the revolutionary tool--"Einstein's telescope"--that is unlocking the secrets of the Univers
In 1936, Albert Einstein published a paper demonstrating that bending of space caused by gravity would allow massive objects to act like "lenses," amplifying and distorting the images of objects behi
These proceedings provide the latest results on dark matter and dark energy research. The UCLA Department of Physics and Astronomy hosted its tenth Dark Matter and Dark Energy conference in Marina del
Dark Energy by Alex J. Morrey, BSc, offers a staggeringly different interpretation of reality, melding science with religion to show plausible reasons for the most implausible and supernatural occurre
