CHIME collaboration helps identify location of "missing" matter in the universe

Estimates of ordinary matter in the universe exceed the amount observed in stars and galaxies, leaving much of it unaccounted for. Researchers from the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME)/Fast Radio Bursts Collaboration, including 涩里番 and MIT, have developed a new method to seek out this 鈥渕issing鈥� matter by combining galaxy locations with fast radio burst detections.
