Physicists get creative in their search for dark matter particles.
Not much is known about dark matter. It is fairly certain that it does exist, but not much more is known. Thus, any ideas on what would happen when two dark matter particles meet seem very speculative.
There's no such thing as a "dark matter microscope." The whole point of dark matter is that it doesn't interact with electromagnetic radiation... if it did, it wouldn't be dark matter.
Yes. It stands for: Weakly Interacting Massive Particles.
There is no such thing.
The shadow particles were dark matter. Dark matter is a hypothetical matter that explains why the universe is the size it is (essentially, the universe isn't expanding as fast as predicted and adding dark matter makes the predictions match reality). Very little is known about dark matter - it's called dark because it can't be seen. Because so little is known about dark matter, we can't actually say they aren't "particles of consciouness", but it is sadly unlikely.
antimatter and dark matter
Dark matter and The Force are not the same thing. The Force is a fictional power that connects all things. Dark matter is a real-world, theoretical matter that figures into physics and mathematics.
The Higgs field and Dark Matter are the same thing.... I'll take my Noble Prize now.
No, dark matter is quite a different kind of thing. A dark hole may have absorbed some dark matter, but pressumably that would become indistinguishable from the normal matter, once it gets crushed by the enormous gravity of the black hole.
Dark matter is matter of an unknown type. It is known to exist, due to its gravitational influence, but it is not known what it is made of. There is at least 5 times as much dark matter than "normal" matter.
The whole point of dark matter ... the thing that makes it "dark" ... is that it doesn't interact with normal matter except through the gravitational force (and, possibly, for some potential types of dark matter ... remember that nobody really knows what it actually is yet ... the weak force).One type of dark matter that we know about for sure is neutrinos. Around 65 billion neutrinos per second pass through every square centimeter of your body perpendicular to the direction of the Sun. They have been since you were born ... since before you were born, in fact. Even at night, because they go straight through the Earth too and come up through the ground on the side facing away from the Sun. The kajillion that have already done so haven't killed you yet, it's not all that likely that the kajillion and first is going to kill you.About the only reasonably possible way to die from dark matter would be if there were a lot of it concentrated in one smallish area, in which case you could be pulled apart by tidal forces if you were in a spaceship that went too close to it. This also isn't likely to happen.
