Scientists are approaching confirmation of the existence of dark matter in the universe. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
Recent studies have focused on investigating the gamma radiation detected at the center of the Milky Way. It is suggested that this radiation may be related to dark matter.
Dark matter does not absorb, reflect, or emit light rays, making it difficult to observe directly. According to scientists' calculations, dark matter constitutes approximately 27 percent of all matter in the universe.
Researchers are considering the collision of dark matter particles or the influence of rapidly spinning neutron stars as sources of the gamma rays. Currently, both hypotheses are considered equally plausible.
With the help of a new telescope being constructed in Chile, it is expected that a more precise answer to this issue will be found. This device will help determine the origin of the gamma radiation and provide new information about the nature of dark matter.
Scientists emphasize that this discovery will be of great importance in expanding knowledge about the universe.
