Probing dark matter with resonant dynamics of the Galactic bar
<p>This thesis provides a novel dynamical evidence for dark matter by measuring for the first time the deceleration of the Galactic bar. This spin-down of the bar requires the transfer of energy and angular momentum to dark matter by dynamical friction, which not only is in conflict with modif...
