Dark matters seems unlikely to succeed

In summary: although lights seems being curved by "unknown" matter, many peoples guess that is the evidence of dark matter, this is hard to judge absolute, it also can be curved by other kind of gravity.

Gravity is not enough to consist a galaxy, some physicists put forward the dark matters theory. Although this theory seeming can solve this problem, I think it is unlike to succeed. Also I found some doubts on this problem.

Many years, physicists are finding the dark matters but still have no breakthrough. And physicists still can not found its possibilities and existence.

I have some doubts on the dark matters theory:

1. If cosmos is occupied by the composition of dark matters, they may causing gravitational effects, they may be annexed by other heavenly bodies or self. But we have not found the sign.
2. If the cosmos is filling full of the dark matters, then we see the image (lights) from other heavenly bodies that should be distorted when they meet the dark matters. But we can see the clear and normal image.

I think that maybe there is another solution can solve this problem that better than the dark matters. Therefore I am doubtful on the existence of dark matters.

Maybe my thought is not really right. I expect other experts can give the viewpoints that is forceful.

But I can not think out that my thought has any wrongs.

I hope other people can give direction.

Dear yu_wing_sin

1. ?? I'm not sure what you mean here. The dark matter is of course making influences through gravity. That's why dark matter is needed...
What signs is it you expect us to see that we havn't?
2. Non-baryonic dark matter (which is the form most of the dark matter must be in) hardly interacts with light. However, light can be gravitationally bended by dark matter, giving rise to so called gravitational lensing. This has been observed.

1: I don't know what you are saying, maybe you mistake my meaning. But I think you can know my meaning, only your mind is not very clear... I ever meet this situation, I also need time to understand the contents.

2: I don't quite agree with you. When lights hit on the dark matters, they may cause refraction, also the proportion of dark matters according to the logical inference is very big, the effect should be very obvious. Also, although lights seems being curved by "unknown" matter, many peoples guess that is the evidence of dark matters, this is hard to judge absolute, it also can be curved by other kind of gravity.

Without any doubt, my 2 hypothesis are the preventors of the absolute existence of dark matters.

When I look back that physicists are no breakthrough on dark matters, I think that is it right? So I thought these doubts... We should make a clear brain, change our study route, that we can just have push of the knowledge. Maybe we always do the same wrong, we always can't awake from the silly works. My 2 hypothesis are worthwhile to notice.

I appreciate to your valuable opinion.

I think you need to explain better what you ment then, it seems like I don't understand your english so well at all.

Dark matter shouln't couse any noticeable amount of scattering of light, simply because dark matter and light hardly interact at all. That's why it's called "DARK matter". (OK there is probably a small part of the total amount of dark matter in the form of ordinary matter, like planets and dust, but that fraction is quite small since it's limited by nucleosynthesis and structure formation. Most of the dark matter must be non-baryonic, and may not interact with light.)

Also, although lights seems being curved by "unknown" matter, many peoples guess that is the evidence of dark matters, this is hard to judge absolute, it also can be curved by other kind of gravity.

What "kind" of gravity are you referring to?

When I look back that physicists are no breakthrough on dark matters, I think that is it right?

Well, it wasn't many years since the concept of "dark matter" was born. One of the most likely (in my and many others opinion) candidate for dark matter is some kind of supersymmetric particles. This will hopefully be detected when the LHC starts running at CERN (in about 2 years I think). Today we don't have enough powerful accelerators to produce those, and hence we havn't detected them yet.

Reply: You still mistake my meaning. Your view is not reasonable, sorry I can't accept your view. I am not against your professional study on dark matters, but you should be clear to separate that what matter interaction is and what matter when lights be prevented by dark matters is. Also my meaning is that the lights can't wholely with prefect to present on our eyes, is not the interaction. In general understanding, dark matters would prevent the lights going though our eyes, do you know my meaning? But we never meet this, so I am doubtful on this point.
Also, I suggest one who don't mixed the concept on two seems similar things, they may cause wrongs.

What "kind" of gravity are you referring to?

Reply: I am meaning the gravity between dark matters or with other heavenly bodies. Dark matters should have gravitational effects, such as they are annexed by other heavenly bodies, or they combine a new heavenly bodies, but we still have not detected this kind of activity of dark matters. So I think this is doubtful.

Dear EL, I am noticed on your this study. But your study (theory) still meets the problems liking dark matters that I listed before. I suggest other suitable solution. Although this kind of particles are proved them the evidence, but how about their proportion? I believe their effect is not big, otherwise the other heavenly bodies would have unusual phenomena. Try to think that, if the proportion of supersymmetric particles is very big that just can support the galaxy, then what phenomena will happen? I think you can't imagine and accept it, too. Acctually in our observation is impossible. I trust that this kind of particles' density is not big.

Yu, consider this. Can galaxies form as early as the evidence suggests without dark matter? Rotation curves, and even cluster masses aside, that is one of the most difficult questions to answer. It's a big picture thing, and the big picture consistently supports the LCDM model. You can't take issue with the concept without taking issue with the evidence. And the evidence comes from many different directions. The dark matter conclusion was forced upon us, not conveniently snatched out of thin air. No other explanation fits - at least to date.

Hahaha... Your saying is logical.
Although dark matters seem that can solve the problem of expanding cosmos, I am doubtful whether it is possible to be proved... ... Also, here me saying the dark matters is quantum. Although I have a idea to replace dark matters, I have no enough assurance.
And I still need to study more deeperly on this matter, there are many problems need to solve. And I feel it is impossible, my thought is very difficult to present clearly...
Thanks for your opinion, it makes me has gain.

I feel the density of dark matters is unable be very high, otherwise they will become heavenly bodies and has motion orbit. But this is not fit to the theory of expanding of cosmos. And if the density of dark matters is very low, then maybe they can't make function. This is the conflict of place. But my former doubts I think they are still worthwhile for me to notice.

Are you saying that dark matter can prevent light from passing by without interacting with it? That's quite contradictory, don't you think?

I am meaning the gravity between dark matters or with other heavenly bodies. Dark matters should have gravitational effects, such as they are annexed by other heavenly bodies, or they combine a new heavenly bodies, but we still have not detected this kind of activity of dark matters.

Wait a minute...we can see a lot of gravitational effects from dark matter, I mean the dark matter concept was invented to explain a lot of gravitational effects that could not be explained by the ordinary matter we could see.
*The gravitation from dark matter can explain why galaxies rotate in the way they do.
*The gravitation from dark matter is needed to explain the observed flatness of the universe.
*Dark matter is needed to explain the observed fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background.
*When large dense pieces of dark matter passes in the line of sight between us and a star, the star should appear lighter due to gravitational lensing. And this is observed all the time with telescopes!
...and that's just of few of the indications that dark matter exists.

Of course we already know there is some dark matter in the form of neutrinos, and baryonic matter like planets and dust. But this form of matter cannot make up more than just a small fraction of the dark matter, since it's constrained by structure formation and light element abundance. Hence most of the dark matter need to be non-baryonic, and the calculated amount of neutrinos is not enough to account for this.
As mensioned, supersymmetric particles is a good candidate for this. This kind of matter hardly interact with light at all, and that's why it cannot stop the light to reach us.

I believe their effect is not big, otherwise the other heavenly bodies would have unusual phenomena. Try to think that, if the proportion of supersymmetric particles is very big that just can support the galaxy, then what phenomena will happen? I think you can't imagine and accept it, too.

You should not believe so much before you know the data.
A lot of scientist is working on what the effects would be if the dark matter is some kind of supersymmetric particles. The problem is not that it would create phenomena that we should see but havn't. Instead the problem is that the predicted phenomena are so hard to observe it may not be possible with todays technology. For example I know people trying to calculate how dark matter would make a signature in gamma ray spectra from the galactic centre, and it's not a large effect at all. Maybe we will not solve the problem until LHC starts running, and maybe not even then in case the supersymmetric particles have too large mass.

If one walks along on a sunny day,your form can cast a shadow. Where there was once Light, now becomes Dark, if one take a torch and shines it at a shadow, the Light appears whilst the Shadow Dissapears? According to your interpretations, do you think:

A)When you cast a shadow, it influences your ability to move and cause's a Dragging effect opposite to your direction of motion, thus a longer shadow one cast's, the less ability you have to move due to the increased drag.

B)When you cast a shadow, it is recomended that you carry a torch, by shining a light upon a shadow, one can reduce the drag-effect sufficiently enough to allow you to continue in the direction you are walking.

Hahaha, EL, your view is worthwhile for us to notice. But I feel your some viewpoints seem not reliable, and some viewpoints are very reliable. Yes, dark matters are very important in many fields of theory, but it is not to represent that no other suitable solution is better than dark matters. Maybe dark matters can be proved the existence, I don't withstand it. But my 2 doubts still have not solve perfectly, mmm, it is very important for the fact of dark matters. MMM, I am very glad to hear your views, without doubts, dark matters have their meaning of existence in now theories, but I am doubtful on the discovering of dark matters, it is a bit of difficult to find it.

But, and I can't imagine the monster Dark matters, how do them exist. Maybe my saying is not clear, but my decision and belief are not surely is. I think, if physicists still can't find the dark matters, they should change their thought and routes, or awake from the theory, just having the breakthrough.

We have. The discontinuity of movement of stars around the centre of galaxy as we move outwards suggests hidden matter.The stars on the outerskirt of galaxy move faster than at the centre which is not so digestible.

If the cosmos is filling full of the dark matters, then we see the image (lights) from other heavenly bodies that should be distorted when they meet the dark matters. But we can see the clear and normal image.

You are all confusing it up.When do you see an image being distorted? ..inside a black hole, watching outside?... probably you need to read more literature.

But according to the theories of dark matter, we should not find it yet, since we do not have the technology. I can't see why dark matter sholdn't exist just because we havn't detected it yet.
Wasn't the Earth round before we discovered it?

That is only an inference, we still have not observed its real existence. Also this is not enough to judge that it is the dark matters, there are many possibilities in it. Also, my stressed dark matters are not heavenly bodies, we are talking about the particles in space.
We just stop from now, OK? Also, I suggest physicists to find the existence of dark matters, that is good for finding the truth.
Arguments are always having, the most important is we can get the truth finally. Now to judge it, is to early. Maybe we will have breakthrough in future. And the dark matters this problem is not in my physical study scope, they should be handed over to you and the interesting physicists.

Hahaha, other things I don't discuss.
But you asked me why I said you some opinions are not reliable, I am pleasure to give possitive reply.
Such as, you said that

"supersymmetric particles is a good candidate for this. This kind of matter hardly interact with light at all, and that's why it cannot stop the light to reach us. "

Your these sentences are equal to tell us, the lights can go through the supersymmetric particles. But how can lights go through? Does supersymmetric particles disappear, or lights have the supernatural phenomena can go through? They seem impossible. This is the conflict of the viewpoints. And so why I feel your viewpoints seem not reliable.

Is my explain forceful? And I admit my saying is not very clear, but I tried the best to represent logically. I hope you can forgive me on this point.

Your problem is that you picture "particles" as classical solid speheres. It is wrong to picture the particle interactions as pool ball collisions. You need to study some physics before you take a stand about the dark matter.
Learn som quantum mechanics, and then quantum field theory (but I must warn you, this will probably take some time).

Yes, the supersymmetric candidates for dark matter hardly interact with light at all. That's why it is called "dark matter". This means that when light passes through, it will hardly be effected at all.
Compare to the "neutrinos" which we know exist. Several millions of them passes through your body every second (okay I'm not sure about the correct order of magnitude, but it's however a huge amount) without interacting with any of the particles your body consists of. Why? Because neutrinos hardly interact with the matter in your body at all.

I think you have got a lot of things wrong from the start, I suppose you have only read about "dark matter" in popular science books?

It's nothing wrong with questioning things, but please make sure you know the subject before you start questioning the work of hundreds of scientists who all are probably a hundred times brighter and a hundred times more experienced than both you and me.

I don't agree with your particle view of dark-matter.From your view of dark-matter , probably you are looking for physical evidence.'Just as the invisible wind can be inferredby a dancing leaf, dark matter is assumed to exist based on how stars andgalaxies behave'

1.Actually dark-matter made its presence felt in outerskirts of galaxies by indicating towards the awkward motion of stars

2. Dark-matter has been detected several times indirectly.Ofcourse nobody has seen it but the scientific community knows about its presence and it has been by far the only logical way to explain the shape of galaxies.Without it , the galaxies could have fly apart.

3.X-rays from hot-gas cloud, which envelop some far-off galaxies also indicate presence of dark-matter.The peculiar thing here is that the hotgas cloud has different shape from the galaxy it surrounds ,which is only possible if there is some other matter besides the galaxy itself, which gives some extra 'air' to the gas-cloud.

There is no doubt that the phenomena usually called "dark matter" exists. Galactic dynamics and lensing of galaxies and galactic clusters makes it clear that something is going on. It is 100% clear that this phenomena does exist. The question then is, what?

The two most plausible answers are:
(1) Some form of "dark matter", in which case the next two big questions are:
(a) What kinds of substances make up "dark matter" and (b) Why is it arranged in the way that it seems to be arranged.

OR

(2) The equations of gravity are wrong, which leads one to ask: What are the correct equations for gravity.

Maybe there are other solutions too, but no one has proposed plausible alternatives to these two questions.

Both plausible solutions have serious problems. Neither question (1)(a) nor question (1)(b) has a satisfactory solution at this time, and there is also not a final solution to the question in (2).

Theory (1)'s biggest problems has been that the better the data gets, the harder it has been to find a kind of dark matter that fits. Early on it was hoped that dark matter could be pretty ordinary stuff -- interstellar gas, MACHOs (which were on the boundary of very small stars or very large gas giants), or massive neutrinos, to give a few examples. Now, the data has made clear that none of these (or even all of these combined) cannot be the main component(s) of dark matter.

Theory (2)'s biggest problems have been finding equations that explain galactic clusters and early limited data that suggests that in the very far fringes of galaxies that the dark matter effect seems to become less significant.

What intention of your this question is? I haven't.

I know a woman is coming to me here, she will bring an alliance for me, but I am very doubtful on their intention. She will seek advice from me, actually it is only that wants to know my future intentions. I will know the things without any communications from other people. I hate people deceiving me.

I have decided to give up to continue to seek publishing my paper. I think my paper seems can't get the success.

Also, you seem that you know what journal my paper is reviewing, is Nature tell you? Or you know the related people? Although behind the back, maybe there are people to help my paper's publishing, I think it is unable to be succeeded.

Now I am very unhappy, please sorry about my any opinion.

From what i read in this thread, the counter arguments against Yu are believable than what he is saying. What i get from Yu is that because there is no physical proof of Dark Matter then it must not exist. And I'm still trying to digest his "other gravity" and "speak Irrationally" :/

Dear Yu!

Don't be that! There's nothing wrong with having an opinion as long as one is ready to abandon it when something better comes up.
To me it seems like you're passioned about physics, but I think you have slid in on the wrong path. There are no easy ways to get to learn physics, you have to start from the basics and work your way upwards. Ask a lot about things you don't understand, and make sure you are well informed before you present any new theories, otherwise people will just walk on you.
Indeed this forum is a very nice place to ask questions in. The mentors all know their stuff very well, and so do the "science advisors".

So smile :smile: and keep an opened mind, and I know you will learn a lot!

What is your paper all about ? Proving 'Dark-matter' doesnot exist? ..If it is I would like to tell you that you have resorted to wrong road.

Well, as far as proving existence of darkmatter goes, read my previous posts and argue positively , if you can please kindly evaluate what you meant by "argue irrationally"..? ..and I would advice you to keep an open mind, here on physics forums you would learn some new concepts , some new information and in the end all adds to your knowledge quotient.This is a great place to be.

Sorry Yu, I don't have any contacts with nature or any other journal for that matter. I agree with El though, don't give up if you are passionate about physics. All of our theories seemed unusual when first proposed. And if you are wrong, then find out why you are wrong, learn more about the subject matter, and try again.

I appreciate to your suggestions. I won't abandon to publish my paper, when me hear the classical musics, I will be encouraging again. My paper wants to overthrow the Einstein, other peoples feel it is doubtful, that is normal. Many theories in the world ever met dispute too, in the world has different people, different view, the most important that is self should believe self. I thank for you again. My paper's bosom friend, the woman is coming to me here and bring my paper's good news to me. She wants to seek advice from me, I will consider what questions I can answer. I thank for your honest to people.

I appreciate to your friendly attitude, this is worthwhile for us to learn. I thank for your advice.

Maybe you misunderstood my intension a bit.
I was not encouraging you to keep trying publishing you paper. I was encouraging you to start reading physics from the basics. If you do this you will after some time probably understand why your paper is rejected by everyone (and then you can make the changes needed, or you will find out that your idea was wrong).
The important thing is not that you believe in what you have written, the important thing is that what you have written is correct, or at least that there is a possibility it could be correct...
Due to your passion about physics I think you may be able to learn a lot if you just start from the basics and climb your way upwards, but let go of all that pseudo-physics.
If you want suggestions about what to start reading, this is the right place to be in!

1. What is dark matter and why is it important?

Dark matter is a hypothetical type of matter that is thought to make up about 85% of the total matter in the universe. It is important because it helps to explain the observed gravitational effects on galaxies and galaxy clusters, which cannot be accounted for by visible matter alone.

2. What evidence supports the existence of dark matter?

The main evidence for dark matter comes from observations of the rotation of galaxies, the gravitational lensing of light, and the large-scale structure of the universe. These observations suggest that there is more mass in the universe than can be accounted for by visible matter, leading scientists to propose the existence of dark matter.

3. Why do some scientists think that dark matter may not exist?

Some scientists have proposed alternative theories to explain the observed gravitational effects, such as modified theories of gravity. Additionally, some experiments designed to detect dark matter particles have not found any conclusive evidence, leading to doubts about its existence.

4. What are the potential consequences if dark matter does not exist?

If dark matter does not exist, it would require a major overhaul of our current understanding of the universe. It would also mean that our current models of galaxy formation and evolution would need to be revised. Additionally, it would raise questions about the validity of the evidence that has been used to support the existence of dark matter.

5. Is there ongoing research to determine the existence of dark matter?

Yes, there are many ongoing experiments and studies aimed at detecting dark matter particles and further exploring its properties. Scientists are also continuously refining and testing alternative theories to explain the observed gravitational effects, in order to better understand the nature of dark matter.
