The gauge bosons (Red) mediate the electromagnetic, strong, and weak forces between matter particles. Finally, the Higgs Boson (yellow) gives mass to all particles.

Using newton's law, it is possible to relate the rotational speed to the gravitational force between the galaxy and each star. The dashed line shows the prediction of rotational speeds from the luminous matter, and the data points show the actual rotational speeds. The inclusion of dark matter gives the solid line.
