a negative mass.  Not zero mass but something with a minus sign in front of it! 
 This is a new model worked out by Dr. Jamie Farnes of the Oxford e-Research

negative mass, it has negative gravity and thus the universe is accelerating as 
it expands from negative gravity.   
Maybe CNF has tapped into negative mass in the empty space of the lattice 
voids?  Or maybe it's more like stuff from the old movie 'Flubber'.  Either 
way, it's an interesting perspective on Dark matter and Dark energy.

A negative mass theory like this should be falsifiable in a straightforward way 
using an ultra-precision scale and ultra-high vacuum system to measure the very 
tiny decrease in weight of a vacuum chamber as it is being pumped. The whole 
system could be mounted on levered arms.

The drop in mass as the vacuum increases should be out of proportion with the

Every story on dark matter simply leaves me confused and perplexed.   The first 
question I would ask is what is the spin of dark matter.   Is it a fermion or 
boson?  If it's a fermion, it has to interact and if it interacts why is it 
nearly impossible to see the interaction.   If it's a Boson, then it would tend 
to undergo condensation, and you would have a bose star or a dark matter black 
hole.  That too should be easy to observe as a gravitational lens without a 
source of matter to create it.   Both have led me to conclude that dark matter 
is part of the concept of Emergent Gravity (Entropic Gravity).  Emergent 
gravity (and emergent dark matter) doesn't have spin but would effect matter 
gravitationally and be associated with matter since it appears out of the 
warping of small amounts space/time by the occupation of matter and the 
entropic warping of space-time from matter.    This is all from ‎Erik 
Verlinde's theory.   It's good stuff and I don't understand why it's not the 
leading candidate for a dark matter explanation.
