Public lecture presented by Andrea Albert
Though we know that dark matter exists, we do not know what it is. This lecture sifts through the evidence on dark matter using the same questions invoked to solve a murder mystery in the game Clue: Who? Where? What? Could the answers be “Neutralino, in a dwarf galaxy, seen with gamma rays”? Our game of Cosmic Clue is ongoing and scientists are hot on the trails of a number of suspects.
