Dark matter and angular momentum content in star-forming galaxies (PhD defense Pavel Mancera Piña, RUG)
On July 5, Pavel Mancera Piña will defend his PhD thesis at the University of Groningen. Mancera Piña investigated dark matter and its absence. Supervisors are Filippo Fraternali and T.A. Oosterloo. Co-supervisor is E.A.K. Adams.
Pavel Mancera Piña made the news in late 2021 when he and an international team of researchers could not detect a trace of dark matter at the galaxy AGC 114905, even after forty hours of measurements with extra good telescopes.
