With the help of a computer simulation, an international research group has apparently found an explanation for two extremely mysterious galaxies in which there is almost no dark matter. When small galaxies collide with large galaxies, the latter could grab all of the dark matter, leaving behind the most unusual objects, the team explains.

Scientists from the University of California, Irvine and Pomona College used computer models to simulate the evolution of a corner of the universe about 60 million light-years across. The new computer models, which weren't designed to do so, created seven galaxies deprived of dark matter, a sight that had previously puzzled scientists. The strange simulations arose after near-collisions with massive neighboring galaxies, according to a statement from the University of…

When small galaxies encounter more massive ones, the former face an ultimatum: Assimilate or be destroyed. But a new study suggests there is a third alternative — confronting the larger galaxy, and paying a cost in dark matter.
