Liouville Field Theory and Dark Matter
One of the most intriguing unsolved problems in modern cosmology involves the nature of the observed dark matter in the universe. Various hypothetical particles have been postulated as the source of the dark matter, but as of yet none of these particles have been observed. In this paper I present an alternative view. The observations indicate the presence of a new force that is much weaker than...
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...
متن کاملQuantum Fields, Dark Matter and Non-standard Wigner Classes
The Elko field of Ahluwalia and Grumiller is a quantum field for massive spin1/2 particles. It has been suggested as a candidate for dark matter. We discuss our attempts to interpret the Elko field as a quantum field in the sense of Weinberg. Our work suggests that one should investigate quantum fields based on representations of the full Poincaré group which belong to one of the nonstandard Wi...
متن کاملDark Matter and Dark Gauge Fields
Following the unexpected theoretical discovery of a mass dimension one fermionic quantum field of spin one half, we now present first results on two local versions. The Dirac and Majorana fields of the standard model of particle physics are supplemented by their natural counterparts in the dark matter sector. The possibility that a mass dimension transmuting symmetry may underlie a new standard...

when the curvature of space is negative (L is the Lobachevskij constant). For obtaining a potential of Newton (or Coulomb) It is necessary to put c2 = −c1/L, L → ∞ (c2 = −c1/R, R → ∞). Let’s consider hereinafter, that at availability of the space curvature to be obliged non-zero, owing to what the Newton potential should be exchanged by a potential (1), in which c2 = −c1/L And to which one actu...
