Structure formation refers to the process through which matter in the universe coalesces and evolves to form galaxies, clusters of galaxies, and larger cosmic structures. This process is influenced significantly by the presence of dark matter, which provides the necessary gravitational pull to facilitate the clustering of ordinary matter, leading to the development of the universe's large-scale structure over billions of years.
