We don't even know what dark matter is, let alone if it decays. One possibility is something called sterile neutrinos; neutrinos that do not interact via the weak force. If so, it's unlikely that they'd decay, though they might undergo neutrino oscillation. If not that, it's likely something even more exotic which we don't know anything about yet (other than it interacts with normal matter through the gravitational force, and not through any of the other forces).

Is dark matter able to move?

Yes. All hypotheses about the nature of dark matter assume it will accelerate, just like baryonic matter does in a gravitational field. In fact, one hypothesis is that dark matter consists of neutrinos, which move at near the speed of light.


Is the mysterious dark matter the fastest-moving material in the universe?

Dark matter does not move faster than the speed of light. It interacts gravitationally with other matter, affecting how galaxies rotate and clusters form, but it does not move on its own at superluminal speeds.


What is the temperature of dark matter?

At present we do not know. It might be almost motionless, it might have a high velocity, it might have a velocity near that of light. These three hypotheses of the nature of dark are called (respectively); cold dark matter, warm dark matter, and hot dark matter.


What is a dark matter microscope used for?

A dark matter microscope is used to indirectly detect and study dark matter by analyzing the impact it has on the distribution of visible matter in space. By observing the gravitational effects of dark matter on visible matter, scientists can infer the presence and properties of dark matter particles.


Where is the largest dark matter in the universe?

Dark matter is everywhere, there really is no place that has the most dark matter.


Is dark matter a subatomic particle?

Dark matter is an unknowm form of matter.


What is the scientific term for the opposite of dark matter?

The opposite of dark matter is visible matter.


Why can't the dark matter in galaxies be made of neutrinos?

Dark matter in galaxies cannot be made of neutrinos because neutrinos are too light and move too quickly to account for the gravitational effects observed in galaxies. Neutrinos also interact weakly with other particles, making them unlikely candidates for the majority of dark matter in the universe.


How strong is dark matter?

Dark matter's strength is proportional to it's mass. This means that more dark matter in one spot is stronger then a little bit of dark matter in that same spot.
