In this review we discuss the possible explanations for dark matter and the experimental observables which can eventually lead to the discovery of dark matter and its nature, and demonstrate the close interplay between the cosmological properties of the early Universe and the observables used to constrain dark matter models in the context of new physics beyond the Standard Model. arXiv:2104.11488v1 [hep-ph] 23 Apr 2021 1 Contents 1 Introduction 3 2 Standard Cosmological Model 3 2.1 Friedmann-Lema^ıtre-Robertson-Walker model . 4 2.2 A quick story of the Universe . 5 2.3 Big-Bang nucleosynthesis . 8 3 Dark matter(s) 9 3.1 Observational evidences . 9 3.1.1 Galaxies . 9 3.1.2 Galaxy clusters . 10 3.1.3 Large and cosmological scales . 12 3.2 Generic types of dark matter . 14 4 Beyond the standard cosmological model 16 4.1 Dark energy . 17 4.2 Inflation and reheating . 19 4.3 Other models . 20 4.4 Phase transitions . 21 5 Dark matter in particle physics 21 5.1 Dark matter and new physics . 22 5.1.1 Thermal relics . 22 5.1.2 Non-thermal relics .

CONSELICE UNIVERSITY OF NOTTINGHAM - UNITED KINGDOM JODI COOLEY SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIV. - USA KEN GANGA APC - FRANCE “THE PLANCK MISSION” The planck satellite, created to measure the anisotropies in the temperature and polarization of the cosmic microwave background, was launched in may of 2009 and has performed well. Some early, non-cmb results have been published already. The first set of cmb temperature data and papers will be released at the beginning of 2013. The full data set, including polarization, is scheduled to be made public in early 2014. Galactic and other astronomical results will continue to be released during this period. I will review the non-cmb results which have been released to date and give previews of what we hope to be able to do with the cosmological data releases. MATTHIAS STEINMETZ AIP - GERMANY NICOLAO FORNENGO UNIVERSITY OF TORINI - ITALY PAOLO SALUCCI SISSA – ITALY “DARK MATTER IN GALAXIES: LEADS TO ITS NATURE” In the past years a wealth of observations has revealed the structural properties of the Dark and Luminous mass distribution in galaxies. These have pointed out to an intriguing scenario. In spirals, the investigation of individual and coadded objects has shown that their rotation curves follow, from their centers out to their virial radii, a Universal profile (URC) that arises from a tuned combination of a stellar disk and of a dark halo. The importance of the latter component decreases with galaxy mass. Individual objects have clearly revealed that the dark halos encompassing the luminous discs have a constant density core.

  • Dark Matter As a Metric Perturbation

The globally obtained “dynamical mass” of baryonic matter can be understood as a small perturbation to a background spacetime metric even though it’s much larger than the locally obtained “proper mass.” Having successfully fit the SCP Union2.1 SN Ia data without accelerating expansion or a cosmological constant, we employ the same ansatz to compute dynamical mass from proper mass and explain galactic rotation curves (THINGS data), the mass profiles of X-ray clusters (ROSAT and ASCA data) and the angular power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (Planck 2015 data) without DM. We compare our fits to modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND), metric skew-tensor gravity (MSTG) and scalar-tensor-vector gravity (STVG) for each data set, respectively, since these modified gravity programs are known to generate good fits to these data.

  • Collapsed Dark Matter Structures
    Collapsed Dark Matter Structures Matthew R. Buckley and Anthony DiFranzo Department of Physics and Astronomy, Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ 08854, USA (Dated: February 14, 2018) The distributions of dark matter and baryons in the Universe are known to be very different: the dark matter resides in extended halos, while a significant fraction of the baryons have radiated away much of their initial energy and fallen deep into the potential wells. This difference in morphology leads to the widely held conclusion that dark matter cannot cool and collapse on any scale. We revisit this assumption, and show that a simple model where dark matter is charged under a \dark electromagnetism" can allow dark matter to form gravitationally collapsed objects with characteris- tic mass scales much smaller than that of a Milky Way-type galaxy. Though the majority of the dark matter in spiral galaxies would remain in the halo, such a model opens the possibility that galaxies and their associated dark matter play host to a significant number of collapsed substructures. The observational signatures of such structures are not well explored, but potentially interesting. Though dark matter outmasses the baryons five-to-one Outside it, the characteristic cooling time is longer than [1], we typically assume the baryonic components are far the infall time. As a result, little of the kinetic and po- more complex than their dark matter equivalents. While tential energy in the halo is lost.

  • Negative Matter, Repulsion Force, Dark Matter, Phantom And
    Negative Matter, Repulsion Force, Dark Matter, Phantom and Theoretical Test Their Relations with Inflation Cosmos and Higgs Mechanism Yi-Fang Chang Department of Physics, Yunnan University, Kunming, 650091, China (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract: First, dark matter is introduced. Next, the Dirac negative energy state is rediscussed. It is a negative matter with some new characteristics, which are mainly the gravitation each other, but the repulsion with all positive matter. Such the positive and negative matters are two regions of topological separation in general case, and the negative matter is invisible. It is the simplest candidate of dark matter, and can explain some characteristics of the dark matter and dark energy. Recent phantom on dark energy is namely a negative matter. We propose that in quantum fluctuations the positive matter and negative matter are created at the same time, and derive an inflation cosmos, which is created from nothing. The Higgs mechanism is possibly a product of positive and negative matter. Based on a basic axiom and the two foundational principles of the negative matter, we research its predictions and possible theoretical tests, in particular, the season effect. The negative matter should be a necessary development of Dirac theory. Finally, we propose the three basic laws of the negative matter. The existence of four matters on positive, opposite, and negative, negative-opposite particles will form the most perfect symmetrical world. Key words: dark matter, negative matter, dark energy, phantom, repulsive force, test, Dirac sea, inflation cosmos, Higgs mechanism. 1.

    Exotic dark fluid controlling universe occupying ninety five percent of the space. What is it and how it is generated? Name of Author: Durgadas Datta; Email: [email protected]; Mobile Number +91- 9830819878; Submission Date; 12th February, 2019. Institute Home Research on Gravitoethertons Author is Founder Director of Home Research on Gravitoethertons -The Exotic Dark Superfluid Abstract:- A New Theory of Gravity with Modified Interpretation of Dark Matter and Dark Energy and Some Associated Outcomes on Standard Model in Prescribing Fundamental Forces. The greatest puzzle today is dark matter--dark energy and mechanism of gravity. We are living on a planet which is located in a part of our universe of super cluster, which is under dark pull/flow from another universe giving drift velocity from existing universe. This has affected our observations by telescopes in the form of incorrect red shift and calculations. Our universe is expanding and accelerating but at reduced rate from our calculations. Another factor is due to our matter universe inside an antimatter universe on opposite entropy path and reverse arrow of time creating gravitoetherton superfluid at common boundary by annihilation and injected into both the universe as explained in my balloon inside balloon theory. The outer universe will be approaching low entropy when misbalance will give rise to a big bounce creating again mirror universes in recyclic and rebounce theory. A Revised Vision for Gravity: - This big bounce is described by Dr.Guth in his exponential inflation. After around 400000 years, we will see CMB glow and galaxies will be forming around escaped evaporation black holes from previous era as seeds of galaxy formation.

    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 4, Issue 11, November-2013 690 ISSN 2229-5518 Demystifying Dark Matter Radha Krishnan, B-Tech, Dept. of Electrical and Electronics, National Institute of Technology- Puducherry, Nehru Nagar, Karaikal, 609605 E-Mail- [email protected] Abstract— Dark matter, proposed years ago as a conjectural component of the universe, is now known to be the vital ingredient in the cosmos, eight times more abundant than ordinary matter, one quarter of the total energy density and the component which has controlled the growth of structure in the universe. However, all of this evidence has been gathered via the gravitational interactions of dark matter. Its nature remains a mystery, but, assuming it is comprised of weakly interacting sub-atomic particles, is consistent with large scale cosmic structure. This paper discusses and sheds new light on the possible nature and prospects of the dark matter in the Universe.

In this paper, we have employed the Planck 2015 cosmic microwave background anisotropy, type-Ia supernovae, observed Hubble parameter data sets to measure the full parameter space of the modified Chaplygin gas as a unified dark matter and dark energy model. The model parameters Bs, α, and B determine the evolutional history of this unified dark fluid model by influencing the energy density ρMCG = −3(1+B)(1+α) 1=(1+α) ρMCG0[Bs + (1 − Bs)a ] . We assumed the pure adiabatic perturbation of unified modified Chaplygin gas in the linear +0:040+0:075 +0:0982+0:2346 perturbation theory. In the light of Markov chain Monte Carlo method, we find that Bs = 0:727−0:039−0:079, α = −0:0156−0:1380−0:2180, +0:0018+0:0030 B = 0:0009−0:0017−0:0030 at 2σ level. The model parameters α and B are very close to zero and the nature of unified dark energy and dark matter model is very similar to cosmological standard model ΛCDM.

LE TIEC ylR;olCO. lnstitut d'Astrophysique de Paris - UMR 709.5 du CNRS. 1 Universite Pierre fj Marie Curie, 98 ''-' boulevard Arago, 7.5014 Paris, France After re,;ewing the modified Newtonian dynamics (l\10:.XD) proposal, we ru:lvocate that the associated phenomenology may actually not result from a modification of Newtonian gravity, but from a mechanism of "gra,;tational polarization" of some dipolar medium pla);ng the role of dark matter We then build a relativistic model within standard general relativity to describe (at some phenomenological level) the dipolar dark matter polarizable in a gravita­ tional field. The model naturally involves a cosmological constant and is shown to reduce to the concordance cosmological scena1;0 (.\-COM) at early cosmological times. From the mechanism of gravitational polarization, we recover the phenomenology of MO:\ll in a typi­ cal galaxy at low redshift. Furthermore, we show that t.he cosmological constant A scales like a~, where a0 is the constant MONO acceleration seal<>, in good agreement with observations. 1 Introduction The mysteries of the nature of dark matter and dark energy arc perhaps the most important ones of contemporary cosmology. Dark matter, which accounts for the observed discrepancy between the dynamical and luminous masses of bounded astrophysical systems, is usually for­ mulated within the sv-eallt--<l prut·icle dark matter approach, iu which the <lark matter c;urnsists of unknown non-baryonic particles, e.g. neutralinos as predicted by super-symmetric extensions of the standard model of particle physics (sec 1 for a review).

The cooling of hot gas and its recycling due to feedback are key parameters in understanding the regu- lation of star formation. Semi-analytical models (SAMs) are quick simulations that allow us to test our understanding of galaxy formation processes. Most of them produce results agreeing fairly well with various galaxy observations, however they fail in reproducing the ICM properties.
