Research team challenges Dark Matter evidence in Bullet Cluster
UNVERIFIED·Primary source · Heise Online
A research team led by Pavel Kroupa argues that the Bullet Cluster can be explained by Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) without dark matter.
The study suggests that the observed gravitational lensing effect can be attributed to visible stars and invisible remnants like neutron stars and black holes.
The findings were published in the journal Physical Review D.
