gravitational evidence for the existence of dark matter, the
different forms it might take, and their impact on cosmological
theories.

The
Early History of Dark Matter
The history of the discovery of dark matter in the
Universe is reviewed. Emphasis on early work by Zwicky (1933), Smith
(1936), Babcock (1939) and Oort (1940).
