Scientists may have found an answer to the mystery of dark matter

Scientists have been researching dark matter, an invisible substance that makes up most of the universe's mass, for decades. Dark matter does not interact with light and is crucial to explaining the universe's behavior. Recent studies suggest that primordial black holes, proposed by Stephen Hawking, could be a solution to the dark matter mystery. Researchers at MIT have explored the formation of these black holes in the early moments of the universe, suggesting they could account for dark matter. Additionally, the study proposes the existence of smaller black holes with unique properties as a byproduct of primordial black holes. These findings could potentially be detected through gravitational wave detectors, offering a new perspective on dark matter research. While experiments like the LZ Dark Matter Experiment continue to search for dark matter particles, the study opens up the possibility of primordial black holes being a significant component of dark matter or coexisting with other forms of dark matter.
