| Word | Definition |
|---|---|
| dark sectornoun | (astrophysics, cosmology, astronomy, physics) The unknown portion of the Universe outside standard physics, including dark matter and dark energy. |
| dark fluidnoun | (astronomy, cosmology) A linked phenomenon conjectured to explain dark matter and dark energy as different manifestations of the same underlying laws of gravity. |
| dark starnoun | (astronomy, physics) An extremely bright and massive hypothetical astrophysical object whose illumination is powered by annihilation of dark-matter particles and anti-particles (or by self-annihilation if they are Majorana particles). |
| darkonnoun | (physics) A scalar field (or particle) that represents an elementary part of dark matter. |
| dark matternoun | (astronomy, astrophysics, loosely) Matter which cannot be detected by its radiation but whose presence is inferred from gravitational effects. |
| dark energynoun | (astronomy, astrophysics) A hypothetical form of energy thought to be spread uniformly throughout space (and time) and to have anti-gravitational properties: it represents a possible mechanism for the cosmological constant, and thus is one of the possible explanations for the current accelerating rate of expansion of the universe; and it is estimated to account for about 74% of the mass-energy of the universe. |
| non-baryonic dark matternoun | (astronomy, physics) dark matter comprising elementary particles whose composition is as yet unknown, but is presumed to be unlike normal protons, neutrons and electrons etc. |
| fuzzy dark matternoun | (physics, cosmology, astronomy) A type of dark matter with very low particle mass, with concomitant very large de Broglie wavelength (such as wavelength on the order of kiloparsecs), resulting in a population of overlapping waves, and concentrations of this dark matter modeled as fields and interference patterns, over astronomical and cosmological distances. |
| baryonic dark matternoun | (astronomy) Any large aggregate of ordinary matter that does not emit light. |
| cold dark matternoun | Dark matter traveling at classical, nonrelativistic speeds. |
| light sectornoun | The fraction of the universe that interacts with electromagnetism (ie. light). |
| antilightnoun | A hypothetical inverse of light, associated with antimatter. |
| hot dark matternoun | Dark matter traveling at ultrarelativistic speeds. |
| dark flownoun | (gambling, psychology) A state of flow experienced in gambling, especially by slot machine players; a state of intense focus and absorption on gambling. |
| dark currentnoun | (physics) The temperature-dependent current that flows in a photodetector when no light is shining on it. |
| warm dark matternoun | Dark matter traveling at relativistic, but not ultrarelativistic, speeds. |
| phantom energynoun | (energy efficiency) The energy that is lost due to standby electronic activity of equipment that is "off", on standby or sleep mode. |
| asymmetronnoun | (physics) A massive scalar field proposed as a form of dark matter |
| gravity darkeningnoun | (physics, astronomy) The phenomenon of a star rotating so rapidly that it is oblate, with a larger radius and thus lower surface gravity at the equator (which is thus cooler and darker: gravity-darkened), and higher surface gravity at the poles (which are hotter and brighter: gravity brightened). |
| branonnoun | (physics) A hypothetical weakly interacting massive particle of dark matter. |
