Dark matter: The astrophysical case
Comptes Rendus. Physique, Volume 13 (2012) no. 6-7, pp. 724-729.

Identification of dark matter is one of the most urgent problems in cosmology. I describe the astrophysical case for dark matter, from both an observational and a theoretical perspective.

Lʼidentification de la matière noire est lʼun des problèmes les plus urgents de lʼastrophysique. Je décris lʼaspect astrophysique du problème, dans une perspective observationnelle autant que théorique.
