As we all know, dark matter is a hypothetical form of matter that does not emit or directly interact with electromagnetic radiation. This definition does not really fit in the head.
The conclusion was made on the basis of indirect signs of the behavior of astrophysical objects, according to the gravitational effects they create, that is, astronomers saw the behavior of stars, galaxies in space …, could not explain it from the point of view of modern physics and, in total, a ghostly, dark matter appeared, which closed all the holes.
So, in particular, judging by the observations of astronomers, our galaxy - the Milky Way, has a very strange, in the opinion of scientists, rotation of stars around a common center of mass, around a black hole in the center of the galaxy. Stars closer to the center, according to the laws of physics, should have a higher rotation speed, and stars farther from the center - a lower one, as is the case in our solar system. But that doesn't happen. From here, a theory was put forward that some invisible mass, matter, slows down the rotation of stars closer to the outskirts, and does it so evenly that the entire cluster rotates like a cast. Very ridiculous, isn't it?
Let's figure it out. Are there any other, scientific explanations for this paradox?
According to Einstein's theory, the passage of time is largely determined by gravity (I do not like this word). Everyone will agree that the greater the density of the object, the greater the gravity? That is, the more density an object has, the more time around it slows down. And this is not a theory, it is a scientifically proven fact. (I will not go into details).
If this rule works on the scale of planets, stars, and more massive objects, why not apply it to our entire galaxy? It is not the stars closer to the edges of the galaxy that rotate faster, but because of the huge density in the center of our cluster, the effect of time dilation occurs. Is it logical?
Time dilation works even on the scale of our planet. For satellites in orbit, time flows differently - also a proven fact. Even the core of our planet is 2.5 years younger than its crust.
So is there dark matter, or are we just observing temporal paradoxes on which everything in the universe is based?
