Gauge singlet scalars as cold dark matter.
In light of recent interest in minimal extensions of the Standard Model and gauge singlet scalar cold dark matter, we provide an arXiv preprint of the paper, published as Phys.Rev. D50 (1994) 3637, which presented the first detailed analysis of gauge singlet scalar cold dark matter. [email protected]
متن کاملThermally generated gauge singlet scalars as self-interacting dark matter.
We show that a gauge singlet scalar S, with a coupling to the Higgs doublet of the form lambda(S)S+SH+H and with the S mass entirely generated by the Higgs expectation value, has a thermally generated relic density Omega(S)approximately equal to 0.3 if m(S)approximately equal to (2.9-10.5) (Omega(S)/0.3)(1/5)(h/0.7)(2/5) MeV. Remarkably, this is very similar to the range [m(S) = (6.6-15.4)eta(2...
متن کاملUltralight Scalars and Spiral Galaxies
We study some possible astrophysical implications of a very weakly coupled ultralight dilaton-type scalar field. Such a field may develop an (approximately stable) network of domain walls. The domain wall thickness is assumed to be comparable with the thickness of the luminous part of the spiral galaxies. The walls provide trapping for galactic matter. This is used to motivate the very existenc...
متن کاملCosmological dark matter and ensoulment
Allocortical structures such as hippocampal formation and amygdala are involved in the emotions and memory, and regarded as the seat of personhood. Human body is a composite of a biological organism and an intellective soul. It was suggested that cerebral allocortex is the main region harboring the soul and the beginning of a human person as an individual living organism is at the 13 week of de...
متن کاملFuzzy cold dark matter: the wave properties of ultralight particles.
Cold dark matter (CDM) models predict small-scale structure in excess of observations of the cores and abundance of dwarf galaxies. These problems might be solved, and the virtues of CDM models retained, even without postulating ad hoc dark matter particle or field interactions, if the dark matter is composed of ultralight scalar particles (m approximately 10(-22) eV), initially in a (cold) Bos...
