Non-baryonic matter Candidates for nonbaryonic dark matter are hypothetical particles such as axions or supersymmetric particles. Source: Internet

Since the simplest models of grand unification have failed, it is now thought by many physicists that inflation will be included in a supersymmetric theory such as string theory or a supersymmetric grand unified theory. Source: Internet
