Consequently, there are numerous searches for dark matter…lemouth (72)in steemstem • 5 years agoDark stars as a cosmic window on a mirror worldA couple of weeks ago, I introduced the concept of a mirror world as a viable option for dark matter. I would like to push this concept further, and discuss how mirror stars made of dark matter (…lemouth (72)in steemstem • 5 years agoSterile neutrinos as a path to dark matterThe existence of three classes of neutrinos is confirmed today, which matches the predictions of the Standard Model of particle physics that also considers them massless.

As a consequence, the current particle and astroparticle literature is quite…lemouth (72)in steemstem • 5 years agoPrimordial killers - excluding common dark matter with black holesWeakly-interacting massive particles (aka WIMPs) are amongst the most popular candidates for dark matter. However, dark matter could also be made of primordial black holes, a special class of black…lemouth (72)in steemstem • 5 years agoPinning down electrically-charged dark matterDark matter is one of the greatest mysteries of particle physics. Standard cosmology tells us that it should exist, but it still evades direct detection on Earth.
