Dark Matter: Indications of the Existence of Dark Matter Kyriaki Markou

Nowadays, the elementary particles physics is called upon to answer a series of key questions which relate directly to the creation of the universe and refer to all aspects of human existence. It is particularly important to confirm the accuracy of the standard model in the way we know it, or to enhance it by adding hypothetical particles which so far have not been detected. Only then the unification of forces into a new standard that will unify all the forces will be possible. It is also equally important to suggest whether the assumptions about the existence of dark matter are confirmed, what its composition is and how it interacts with ordinary matter. Up to now evidence suggests the existence of dark matter. Remains unknown, however, where, when and how will the scientific community solve the mystery that covers it. However, taking into consideration the fact that several thousand of physicists worldwide, using sophisticated constructions are methodically studying the subject, it is hoped that they will be able in the coming years to shed light to dark matter mystery. Until then, theories will be only a hypothetical approach to the whole issue.
