Revising relativity: How modified gravity challenges Einstein and dark matter
Science Tech: Tobias Mistele, a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Astronomy, and Stacy McGaugh, professor and director of the Department of Astronomy at the College of Arts and Sciences, discussed their new research challenging the existing models of cosmology, suggesting either dark matter halos are vastly extended or our understanding of gravitational theory needs a fundamental reassessment.
