Exponentially Growing Dark Matter

Caustics in growing Cold Dark Matter Haloes

We simulate the growth of isolated dark matter haloes from self-similar and spherically symmetric initial conditions. Our N-body code integrates the geodesic deviation equation in order to track the streams and caustics associated with individual simulation particles. The radial orbit instability causes our haloes to develop major-to-minor axis ratios approaching 10 to 1 in their inner regions....

Singlet scalar dark matter in noncommutative space

In this paper, we examine the singlet scalar dark matter annihilation to becoming the Standard Model particles in the non-commutative space. In the recent decades, many candidates of dark matter have been offered,  but our information about  the nature of dark matter is still limited. There are such particle candidates as  scalar matetr, fermion, boson, gauge boson, etc.; however, they have nei...

Fitness distributions in exponentially growing asexual populations.

We explore a mean-field model for the evolution of exponentially growing populations of mutating replicators. Motivated by recent in vitro experiments devised to analyze phenotypic properties of bacterial and viral populations subjected to serial population transfers, we allow our in silico individuals to undergo unrestricted growth before applying bottleneck events. Different dynamical regimes...

Dark matter and dark radiation

Lotty Ackerman, Matthew R. Buckley, Sean M. Carroll, and Marc Kamionkowski California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California 91125, USA (Received 16 December 2008; published 23 January 2009) We explore the feasibility and astrophysical consequences of a new long-range Uð1Þ gauge field (‘‘dark electromagnetism’’) that couples only to dark matter, not to the standard model. The dark matter...
