Sure! Here is a basic classification of characteristics for dark matter and baryonic matter:
Dark Matter:
- Non-luminous
- Does not interact through electromagnetic forces
- Composes about 27% of the universe's total mass-energy content
- Influences gravitational effects on visible matter
- Does not have a known particle form but is hypothesized to be made of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) or other exotic particles.
Baryonic Matter:
- Luminous or non-luminous
- Composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons
- Makes up about 5% of the universe's total mass-energy content
- Interacts through electromagnetic forces
- Forms stars, planets, and all known matter
If you provide specific items to classify, I can help you sort them accordingly.
