Telescopes cannot perceive it nor can radio antennas, yet there are compelling signs that vast quantities of dark matter particles surround the stars and galaxies. In Shadows of Creation, Michael Riordan and David Schramm describe the efforts underway at observatories, laboratories, and particle colliders to resolve this hotly debated scientific mystery. It is a search that could call into question longheld theories about the motions of the galaxies, the large-scale structure of the cosmos, and the origins of the Universe.
