Resolving the Baryon Crisis: Fast Radio Bursts Reveal the Location of Missing Ordinary Matter
Resolving the Baryon Crisis: Fast Radio Bursts Reveal the Location of Missing Ordinary Matter A significant breakthrough in cosmology has resolved the long-standing “missing baryon” problem. For decades, scientists have struggled to account for the location of a substantial portion of ordinary matter, known as baryons, predicted by the Big Bang theory. Recent research, led by Professor Liam Connor of Harvard University, has successfully located this missing matter, primarily residing in the vast intergalactic medium (IGM). The study utilized a…
