New dark matter theory could solve multiple cosmic mysteries at once
SMRTR summary
Chinese researchers have proposed a new theory suggesting dark matter may consist of two types of particles with different masses that interact with each other. This "mass segregation" process, where heavier particles drift toward galaxy centers and lighter ones spread outward, could simultaneously explain both the surprisingly low dark matter densities in dwarf galaxies and the unusually dense clumps seen through gravitational lensing.
