The Mass-Density of the Universe and the Distribution of Dark Matter Neta A. Bahcall Princeton University, USA One of the most fundamental questions of cosmology is: How much matter is there in the Universe and how is it distributed? Here we show that several independent measures - including those utilizing clusters of galaxies - all indicate that the mass-density of the Universe is low: only 20-30% of the critical density. ... The results reveal a low den- sity of 0.16+-0.05. ...

... We address a question if globular clusters (GC) in a protogalaxy could for some time evolve chemically as isolated systems, enriching themselves with heavy elements produced in first supernova events that follow initial star formation. We determine both the critical mass of a protoglobular cluster that is needed to retain the ejecta of the very first supernova, and the critical energy (i.e., number of supernovae) that is needed to expel the residual gas from a cluster of a given mass. ...
