SILICON VALLEY, Calif., Dec. 16, 2009 (AScribe Newswire) — The 75-year mystery of the precise nature of dark matter of the universe has been solved by Bell Labs-trained scientist Jerome Drexler. It took him seven years of intensive cosmological research to discover and then confirm the identity of dark matter by means of a series of 18 cosmological tests and support from research reports from over a dozen universities and research laboratories, described in his new astro-cosmology book.
His new paperback book appears on Amazon.com, the AAAS Science Special Collections, and Barnes & Noble lists. It is entitled, “Our Universe via Drexler Dark Matter.” It introduces a cosmologic universe which is orderly, logical and systematic, and also solves many former cosmic mysteries in an understandable manner. His December 2009 upgraded and updated “Discovering Dark Matter Cosmology” Web site is located at http://www.jeromedrexler.org/ .
Physicists have said that no one understands the nature of dark matter, even though it was discovered 75 years ago and represents about 23 percent of the mass-energy of the universe and no one understands the nature of dark energy or the cause of the accelerating expansion of the universe, even though they were discovered 11 years ago and dark energy represents about 72 percent of the mass-energy of the universe.
Physicists also have said that no one knows where ultra-high-energy cosmic-ray protons derive their very high energies and no one understands the nature of the post-big-bang inflationary epoch phenomenon of very rapid expansion of the universe, commonly called Cosmic Inflation.
However, Drexler has discovered a unified theory of astrophysical cosmology that plausibly solves all four of these long-unsolved mysteries, as well as more than a dozen other cosmic mysteries. The new book describes this unified astrophysical cosmology theory and how it is utilized to solve these mysteries. This new cosmology paradigm also can provide trained cosmologists insights into and solutions to newly discovered cosmic mysteries within days or weeks following the publication of the related scientific papers.
Clearly, every dark matter candidate must be subjected to a series of qualifying astronomical-based cosmological tests to be given serious consideration as the dark matter of the universe. Drexler’s new book, “Our Universe via Drexler Dark Matter” focuses on 18 principal cosmic constituents or cosmic phenomena which are used to define our universe and also to perform 18 cosmological compatibility tests of any dark matter particle candidates.
Although discovering and proving the precise nature of the dark matter of the universe is very significant, Drexler’s new book provides more. Each of the 18 cosmic elements also represents a window looking into a portion of the cosmologic universe. Further, each of the 18 cosmic elements is compatible with the other 17, making it possible to utilize any subgroup of them without requiring any new assumptions.
After the book is read, it becomes clear that Drexler has developed a unified theory of astrophysical cosmology that encompasses many more cosmic constituents and phenomena than any other cosmology paradigm in use today. Also, within his four book series, Drexler has solved as many as two dozen cosmic mysteries, making his new cosmology paradigm, to a great extent, devoid of unsolved cosmic mysteries.
Further, in most chapters, the book provides the date that a research paper was published by another party and the date that the chapter was written by Drexler. Note that the time differential is usually days or a few weeks. Serious students of this new cosmology paradigm should become just as quick at solving new cosmic mysteries as Drexler has been.
Another aspect of this unified theory of astrophysical cosmology is the making of more accurate or successful predictions based upon new ways of analyzing data and deriving new insights by using a subgroup of the 18 cosmological elements selected for the purpose.
This book is different from all other modern cosmology books in several ways. It introduces a cosmologic universe, which is orderly, logical, and systematic. It teaches and explains by illustrating how a variety of cosmic mysteries have been solved. It raises the status of dark matter in the universe by illuminating its roles as the principal source of energy, the principal source of matter in the form of hydrogen and helium, and the principal source of cosmic relationships with the principal cosmic phenomena and cosmic constituents of the universe. This book simplifies the cosmology of the universe as the book of Nicolaus Copernicus simplified the understanding of the solar system in 1543.
Drexler has documented his seven years of dark matter/dark energy research, its timeline, its interaction with mainstream cosmology, and the overwhelming evidence that relativistic-proton or relativistic-baryon dark matter represents the principal constituent of the dark matter of the universe in the following seven publications.
