In astronomy and cosmology, dark matter is a type of matter hypothesized to account for a large part of the total mass in the universe.

Dark matter's existence is inferred from gravitational effects on visible matter and gravitational lensing of background radiation, and was originally hypothesized to account for discrepancies between calculations of the mass of galaxies, clusters of galaxies and the entire universe made through dynamical and general relativistic means, and calculations based on the mass of the visible " luminous " matter these objects contain: stars and the gas and dust of the interstellar and intergalactic medium.

Helium-3 was hypothesized to be a radioactive isotope until helions were also found in samples of natural helium, which is mostly helium-4, taken both from the terrestrial atmosphere and from natural gas wells.

" This is not to be considered a nodular grouping ; in other words, there was not necessarily any common west Indo-European serving as a node from which the subgroups branched, but rather a hypothesized similarity between the dialects of Proto-Indo-European which developed into the recognized families.

" Researchers such as Bolino have hypothesized that the act of performing OCBs is not done out of goodwill, positive affect, etc., but instead as a way of being noticed by superiors and looking good in the eyes of others.

There is a hypothesized link between manic depression and hyper-sexuality, as put forward by Jarman et al.

Between the Cotton Belt and the Tennessee Valley is the mineral region, the Old Land area — a region of resistant rocks — whose soils, also derived from weathering in silu, are of varied fertility, the best coming from the granites, sandstones and limestones, the poorest from the gneisses, schists and slates.

An extension of this is the sacred cockfight, ” a popular form of fertility worship among almost all Southeast Asians ” considered by some in the Judeo-Christian ethic as a form of ’ fertility worship ’ or Baalim.

It is also a fertility festival, similar in some ways to other harvest-time celebrations in other cultures.

Although the holiday may use features of the Gaelic Beltane, such as the bonfire, it is more alike the Germanic May Day festival, both in its significance ( focusing on fertility ) and its rituals ( such as maypole dancing ).

The writers of the study had initially speculated that the reason for this is due to endocrinology with larger breasts indicating higher levels of estrogen and a sign of greater fertility, but the researchers said that " Men may be looking more often at the breasts because they are simply aesthetically pleasing, regardless of the size.

The dying god is often associated with fertility.

However, bitheistic and ditheistic principles are not always so easily contrastable, for instance in a system where one god is the representative of summer and drought and the other of winter and rain / fertility ( cf.

Doric Dāmātēr ) is the goddess of the harvest, who presided over grains and the fertility of the earth.

The loss of soil fertility due to erosion is further problematic because the response is often to apply chemical fertilizers, which leads to further water and soil pollution, rather than to allow the land to regenerate.

Humans are the only ape in which the female is fertile year round, and in which no special signals of fertility are produced by the body ( such as genital swelling during estrus ).

In Norse mythology, Freyja ( Old Norse the " Lady ") is a goddess associated with love, beauty, fertility, gold, seiðr, war, and death.

Freyja assists other deities by allowing them to use her feathered cloak, is invoked in matters of fertility and love, and is frequently sought after by powerful jötnar who wish to make her their wife.

The tree was chosen as a symbol of the French Revolution because it is a symbol of fertility in French folklore, which provided a simple transition from revering it for one reason to another.

Furthermore, during the last century there is a negative correlation between fertility and intelligence.

Fertility is not shown before 1950. Notable features before that time are fertility being extremely low during the ending years of the Weimar Republic, when it dropped down to about 1. 1 child per woman in 1933.

Another Ethiopian goddess is Atete — the goddess of spring and fertility.

The first is rather terrestrial, of abundant fertility and luxuriant vegetation, known as the " lower Gan Eden ".

Hyperthyroidism is very rare in canines ( dogs ) ( occurring in less than 1 or 2 % of dogs ), who instead tend to have the opposite problem: hypothyroidism, which can manifest itself in an unhealthy-appearing coat and fertility problems in females.

Unconcerned with the practical function of his actions, the dancer is engrossed exclusively in their `` motional content ''.

This is the primary function of the imagination operating in the absence of the original experiential stimulus by which the images were first appropriated.

But because it is the function of the mind to turn the one into the other by means of the capacities with which words endow it, we do not unwisely examine the type of distinction, in the sphere of politics, on which decisions hang.

`` Mr. Gross, your report says that ' our function is investigative and advisory and does not in any way derogate from or prejudice Mr. Bang-Jensen's rights as a staff member.

It is, however, a disarming disguise, or perhaps a shield, for not only has Mercer proved himself to be one of the few great lyricists over the years, but also one who can function remarkably under pressure.

Men seem almost universally to want a sense of function, that is, a feeling that their existence makes a difference to someone, living or unborn, close and immediate or generalized.

And there is one other point in the Poetics that invites moral evaluation: Aristotle's notion that the distinctive function of tragedy is to purge one's emotions by arousing pity and fear.

It is possible that international organization will ultimately supplant the multi-state system, but its proper function for the immediate future is to reform and supplement that system in order to render pluralism more compatible with an interdependent world.

This function is staffed by engineers chosen for their technical competence and who have the title, member of the technical staff.

If Af is the change per unit volume in Gibbs function caused by the shear field at constant P and T, and **yr is the density of the fluid, then the total potential energy of the system above the reference height is Af.

This is interesting for it combines both the thermodynamic concept of a minimum Gibbs function for equilibrium and minimum mechanical potential energy for equilibrium.

The concept of the strain energy as a Gibbs function difference Af and exerting a force normal to the shearing face is compatible with the information obtained from optical birefringence studies of fluids undergoing shear.

A proton magnetic resonance study of polycrystalline Af as a function of magnetic field and temperature is presented.
