  • Abstract:
  • Dark matter and dark energy represent two of the most enigmatic phenomena in contemporary cosmology, collectively comprising nearly 95% of the universe's overall mass-energy composition. Whereas dark matter is thought to be an invisible type of matter that interacts mainly via gravity and accounts for the rotational velocities of galaxies. In cosmological studies, dark energy is a theoretical concept believed to be the primary cause of the universe's accelerating rate of expansion. Despite their immense influence on the universe's evolution, neither dark matter nor dark energy has been directly detected, and their fundamental nature remains elusive. This paper explores the current theoretical models, observational evidence, and ongoing experiments aimed at detecting dark matter particles (such as WIMPs, Axions, or sterile neutrinos) and measuring the properties of dark energy through cosmological surveys and supernova observations. Understanding these components is critical not only for completing the standard model of cosmology but also for potentially revealing new physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. The ongoing effort to decode these cosmic enigmas continues to challenge and deepen our understanding of the universe.
