Dark Matter May Interact With Regular Matter Beyond Gravity ...
WEB1 day ago — Dark matter isn't electrically charged. It has no way to connect with light, and so when light and dark matter meet up they simply pass through each other. All of our observations suggest that dark matter and light only have gravity in common. When dark matter is clustered around a galaxy, for example, its gravitational tug can deflect light.
