On the hunt for dark matter in 亚洲色吧
Friday, 22 August 2014
New University of 亚洲色吧 Future Fellow Dr Martin White is starting a research project that has the potential to redirect the experiments of thousands of physicists around the world who are trying to identify the nature of dark matter.
Dr White is developing new computational (data mining) techniques that will allow him to analyse an extensive range of particle physics and astrophysics data from global experiments and test the various models of dark matter.
"If you put together everything we know about the Universe, only about 4% is normal matter - the rest is dark matter and dark energy," says Dr White, from the University's . "Following the discovery of the Higgs Boson two years ago, dark matter remains the biggest problem in fundamental physics.
"Tens of thousands of physicists around the world are working on it. Until we understand the nature of dark matter, we simply can't unde
