Abstract

We present a general overview of recent results in the searches for dark matter and dark energy. We discuss the observation of the collision between two clusters of galaxies, and the impact this has on the relevance of dark matter. We then present the final results from microlensing experiments, which aimed at detecting dark baryonic objects in the halo of our galaxy, and the status of direct searches for WIMPs. We present the evidence for dark energy which initially comes from experiments dedicated to the study of distant type Ia supernovae. The measure of the baryon acoustic oscillation, an independent probe of the evolution of our universe that has recently brought interesting constraints, is finally described.
