An atom is a nucleus surrounded by several electrons. The nucleus is made of protons and neutrons; these can be further subdivided into quarks. As for dark matter, no one knows what it is. The only evidence for dark matter is the fact that the "light matter" (the stuff we can see in space) isn't nearly enough to create enough gravity to hold the universe together. It could be anything that has mass and isn't directly observable - white dwarves, black holes, bits of rock, as-yet-undiscovered kinds of fundamental particle, ... It could be a bit of each. Given that space is only illuminated in small patches where the stars are, it's not at all surprising that there appear to be things we can't see. In fact, dark matter is so elusive that in recent years some astronomers have begun to doubt whether it even exists, saying that maybe the general theory of relativity needs to be modified to add more gravity over larger distances. So dark matter could be made of atoms, like light matter - it could be something quite mundane. Could atoms be made of dark matter? In other words, could dark matter consist of subatomic particles? If it did, then it would be made of atoms (because nothing else is stable and made of subatomic particles).
What else can I help you with?
Why do two dark matter particles collide?
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.
What the unverse is made of?
The universe is primarily made up of dark matter, dark energy, and normal matter. Normal matter includes atoms and particles like protons, neutrons, and electrons that make up stars, planets, and the things we see around us. Dark matter and dark energy are mysterious components that scientists are still trying to understand.
Is the sun dark matter?
No, the sun is not dark matter. Dark matter is a mysterious form of matter that does not emit, absorb, or reflect light. The sun, on the other hand, is a star that emits light and heat due to nuclear reactions happening at its core.
Does dark matter relate to a supernova?
Probably not. Dark matter is not believed to concentrate well in or around masses the size of stars. But it does concentrate well around galaxies and clusters of galaxies. Most of the mass of a galaxy like ours is believed to be in a sphere of dark matter in the galaxy's spherical halo.
Dark matter is inferred to exist because?
Dark matter is inferred to exist because of the gravitational effects it has on visible matter in the universe. Observations of galaxies rotating faster than expected and the bending of light around massive objects support the presence of dark matter. However, dark matter itself has not been directly observed or detected.
Do matter make up atoms?
Atoms make up most matter around us. In the Universe in general, it seems that atoms make up about 4% of the mass of the Universe. The remainder of the Universe mass is dark matter and dark energy - both of unknown composition.
What are the components and sub components of the universe?
Components of the universe include dark energy, dark matter, luminous matter, and other compounds that are non-luminous. Sub-components include photons, atoms, neutrinos, and dark matter.
What are the components and sub-component of the universe?
Components of the universe include dark energy, dark matter, luminous matter, and other compounds that are non-luminous. Sub-components include photons, atoms, neutrinos, and dark matter.
Compare the amount of visible matter in the universe with the total amount of matter and energy?
4% Visible Matter (Atoms) 23% Dark Matter 73% Dark Energy
Is atoms is matter?
Presumably that refers to matter that is made up of atoms. Most matter in your everyday life is made up of atoms, but in our Universe, there is about 5 times as much matter that is NOT made up of atoms - the so-called dark matter.
Why do two dark matter particles collide?
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.
Does dark matter kill atoms?
No. Whatever the stuff is, its sole effect is gravitational.
All matter is made of atoms?
Yes.
What's the dark matter in the universe?
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.
Where do you get the dark matter?
Dark matter is all around us, inside and out, is what holds the forces of gravity together, keeps it from flying apart.
What the unverse is made of?
The universe is primarily made up of dark matter, dark energy, and normal matter. Normal matter includes atoms and particles like protons, neutrons, and electrons that make up stars, planets, and the things we see around us. Dark matter and dark energy are mysterious components that scientists are still trying to understand.
Is everything made out of molecule's?
No, not everything is made of molecules. Energy, light, and other fundamental particles like electrons and protons do not consist of molecules. Additionally, some elements such as noble gases exist as individual atoms rather than molecules.
