Title: Dark Matter in the Universe
Issue Date: 30-May-2013
Publisher: Sociedade Brasileira de Física
Description: We treat here the problem of dark matter in galaxies. Recent articles seem to imply that we are entering into the precision era of cosmology, implying that all of the basic physics of cosmology is known. However, we show here that recent observations question the pillar of the standard model: the presence of nonbaryonic "dark matter" in galaxies. Using Newton's law of gravitation, observations indicate that most of the matter in galaxies is invisible or dark. From the observed abundances of light elements, dark matter in galaxies must be primarily nonbaryonic. The standard model and its problems in explaining nonbaryonic dark matter will first be discussed. This will be followed by a discussion of a modification of Newton's law of gravitation to explain dark matter in galaxies.
