"Revealing the Enigma of Dark Matter: Insights from Gravitational Waves"

Computer simulations presented at the 2023 National Astronomy Meeting suggest that observing gravitational waves from merging black holes could provide insights into the nature of dark matter. The simulations show that counting the number of black-hole merger events detected by next-generation observatories could indicate whether dark matter interacts with other particles. This research offers a new approach to explore the large-scale structure of the Universe and better understand the mysterious nature of dark matter.
