With support from a prestigious NSF CAREER award, Subhasish Mandal, an assistant professor in the WVU Eberly College…
Astronomers used 69 fast radio bursts as cosmic backlights to complete the clearest census yet of the universe’s missing ordinary matter, finding that roughly 76% resides as extremely diffuse ionized gas in the vast spaces between galaxies — while only 9% remains inside galaxies as stars and gas.
The universe’s “missing matter” was never thought to have vanished. Cosmologists could infer how much ordinary, atom-building matter…
