Is there any current evidence that "dark matter" and "dark energy" might consists of anti-particles?

Question

According to modern cosmological models, the visible universe appears to be made up of 4 - 6% "normal matter" while the remaining 94 - 96% is made up, disproportionately, of "dark matter" and "dark energy". Also, modern cosmology shows that immediately after the "big bang" there was only a tiny more matter created along with anti-matter. The ensueing annihilation of complimentary particles, converting matter and anti-matter into gamma radiation, left matter as the winning majority component of the current universe. But, is there any evidence that, actually, "annihilated" anti-matter still exist and is the constituants of "dark matter" and "dark energy"?

Answer 1

In fact, there is a great deal of evidence showing it is not. What little we know of the dark matter and energy is that they are not composed of baryons. But anti-protons *are* bosons. There are some candidates for the dark matter (axions are a good bet) but anti-matter in the usual sense is ruled out by observation.

Answer 2

Revisionist history. I took a real history class from a legitimate school and got the real scoop -- the middle ages really were a long period of anti-intellectualism. The so-called reevaluation you're speaking of has only happened among Catholic historians with an agenda. And the "dark ages" was still used as a phrase when I went to university in the 90s.

Answer 3

Considering that antimatter is HIGHLY unstable and decays very quickly even in a vacuum, I would have to say that it is most likely NOT antimatter. Even if it was antimatter, the relative density of normal matter across the universe would still be enough to cause MASSIVE energy-releasing events from matter-antimatter cancellation almost continuously (starting from right now), which would definitely be detectable by even the smallest telescopes.

Answer 4

I do not think dark matter and dark energy consist of anti-particles, since antiparticles are matter!

Answer 5

The Aether Physics Model (APM) views dark matter as primary angular momentum.......but for more info....read on... because the Primary angular momentum is a new concept.

Answer 6

Scientists are currently in anti-agreement over this issue

Answer 7

I left my super particle collider in the pants that I sent to the laundry and it got ruined. So sorry can't help.

Answer 8

yes cern has been able to create very small amounts of anti matter

Answer 9

oh, i thought dark matter and antimatter are basically the same, i mean their both not matter..:)
