Heya! I need some good links to articles on dark matter that are easy to understand and are worth reading. Stuff on neutrinos,, hot dark matter, cold dark matter...and mass to light ratios. tanxy.
I need more info on dark matter

In summary, the conversation is about a person seeking links to articles on dark matter that are easy to understand and worth reading. They mention specific topics such as neutrinos, hot and cold dark matter, mass to light ratios, pulsar velocities, and weakly interacting particles. They also mention different types of dark matter, such as MeV dark matter, neutralino dark matter, hot dark matter, wimps, and sterile neutralino dark matter. The person offering the links mentions that it is a large subject and offers to provide more information if needed.

tanx Wolram. I'll look through this stuff and see if I need anymore. Its all for an essay I have to hand in. Fun stuff, eh? cheerz. 
What is dark matter?
Dark matter is a type of matter that makes up about 85% of the total matter in the universe. It does not emit or absorb light, making it invisible to telescopes and other instruments used to study the universe.
How is dark matter different from regular matter?
Regular matter, or baryonic matter, is made up of particles such as protons, neutrons, and electrons. Dark matter is believed to be made up of non-baryonic particles, which do not interact with light or other forms of electromagnetic radiation.
How do scientists study dark matter?
Scientists study dark matter through its gravitational effects on other objects in the universe. By observing the way galaxies rotate and how light bends around them, scientists can infer the presence of dark matter.
What are some theories about the nature of dark matter?
Some theories suggest that dark matter is made up of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), while others propose that it is composed of axions, a type of hypothetical particle. Other theories suggest that dark matter could be made up of primordial black holes or other exotic particles.
Why is studying dark matter important?
Studying dark matter is important because it can help us better understand the structure and evolution of the universe. It can also provide insights into the fundamental laws of physics and potentially lead to new discoveries and technologies.
