In anime/manga Dark Matter has broad range of powers, including Form Manipulation/Elemental Manipulation.

Unlike normal matter, dark matter does not interact with the electromagnetic force. This means it does not absorb, reflect or emit light, making it extremely hard to spot. In fact, researchers have been able to infer the existence of dark matter only from the gravitational effect it seems to have on visible matter.

Scientists study dark matter by looking at the effects it has on visible objects. Scientists believe that dark matter may account for the unexplained motions of stars within galaxies. Chandra observed a cluster of galaxies called Abell 2029 located about a billion light-years from Earth.

Dark matter can refer to any substance which interacts predominantly via gravity with visible matter (e.g., stars and planets). Hence in principle it need not be composed of a new type of fundamental particle but could, at least in part, be made up of standard baryonic matter, such as protons or neutrons.

Scientists believe that dark matter may account for the unexplained motions of stars within galaxies. Computers play an important role in the search for dark matter data. They allow scientists to create models which predict galaxy behavior. Satellites are also being used to gather dark matter data.

In a new study, scientists say they can explain dark matter by positing a particle that links to a fifth dimension.

The fifth dimension is a micro-dimension which is accepted in physics and mathematics. As of now, we can’t see the fifth dimension, but rather, it interacts on a higher plane than we do. It’s because of this that we can’t really study nor fully prove it’s existence.

Scientists Have Proposed a New Particle That Is a Portal to a 5th Dimension. The path to dark matter and other fundamental enigmas may be through a warped extra dimension, according to a new study that proposes a new theory of the universe.
