TL;DR Summary

Does the Observation of whim can solved the problem of dark matter

Direct Observation of Whim (The warm–hot intergalactic medium) has known a lot progress recently. Does whim could be enough to amount to the quantity of dark matters in the universe, therefore solving the dark matter problem? If not, why?

Short answer: no, for many reasons. First, there isn't enough of it. We can see this matter quite clearly in galaxy clusters through x-rays, and it only amounts to a small fraction of what is required to hold the galaxy clusters together.

There's lots of other reasons why this can't work, but that's the start of it. I recommend looking up the bullet cluster for a pretty direct observational example that rules this out directly.
