متن کاملCan quantum theory explain dark matter?
Certain solutions to a gravitational form of Schrodinger’s equation can yield stable, macroscopic eigenstate solutions having no classical analogue, with properties resembling those of dark matter. Some more tractable solutions show: (1) radiative lifetimes far exceeding the universe’s age, implying negligible emission and inherent stability w.r.t. gravitational collapse, (2) negligible interac...
