Read MoreAn article about my work on investigating the so-called 'backreaction' of the baryons, i.e. gas and stars, in galaxies on the surrounding Dark Matter. Typically the latter is assumed to dominate and the effects of the galaxies are ignored, this work showed that this isn't the case when one is close enough to the centre.
