Stars move around galaxies as if pulled by ten times the matter that we can see. ... GRAVITATIONAL LENSING: Since dark matter by definition cannot be directly observed, several recent searches have instead exploited the predicted gravitational effects of its mass on the observed light from nearby stars. ...

... Charles H. Lineweaver University of New South Wales ABSTRACT For the past 15 years most astronomers have assumed that 95% of the Universe was in some mysterious form of cold dark matter. They also assumed that the cosmo logical constant,\Omega \Lambda , was Einstein's biggest blunder and could be ignored. ... The \LambdaCDM region of the (\Omega m ;\Omega \Lambda ) plane fits the CMB, supernovae and other data sets and should be viewed as the new standard model of cosmology. ...
Report by the ESA-ESO Working Group on Fundamental Cosmology Abstract In September 2003, the executives of ESO and ESA agreed to establish a number of working groups to explore possible synergies between these two major European astronomical institutions on key scientific issues. The first two working group reports (on Extrasolar Planets and the HerschelнALMA Synergies) were released in 2005 and 2006, and this third report covers the area of Fundamental Cosmology. The Working Group's mandate was to
