I'm trying to find the amount of repulsive force dark matter has on matter.
To my understanding, the presence of dark matter is deduced from the fact that galaxies are being pushed away from one another instead of toward each other. The absence of matter between the galaxies suggests an unknown form of matter is causing this force.
I'm trying to find or calculate the force that dark matter presents between two galaxies based upon the mass of each galaxy, distance apart and 'amount' of dark matter between the galaxies.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
