نویسنده
چکیده
We consider the cross section limits for light dark matter candidates (m = 0.4 to 10 GeV). We calculate the interaction of dark matter in the crust above underground dark matter detectors and find that in the intermediate cross section range, the energy loss of dark matter is sufficient to fall below the energy threshold of current underground experiments. This implies the existence of a window in the dark matter exclusion limits in the micro-barn range.

An inhomogeneous cosmology describing a spacetime without symmetry is shown to be able to inflate the early universe and explain the late-time acceleration of the universe without a cosmological constant and negative pressure dark energy and avoid the coincidence problem. e-mail: [email protected]

In this paper, we use the result in [7] to calculate the non-Gaussianity of the racetrack models in [3, 5]. Our results show that the nonGaussianity in [3] is reasonable, while the non-Gaussianity in [5] is beyond the observational limits.

Dark matter annihilations can generate significant amounts of internal heat inside planets if dark matter consists mainly of particles with nuclear cross sections in the micro-barn range or larger (SIMPs). By considering a detailed model of Uranus’ interior, we calculate upper limits on the Swave annihilation cross section for these particles as a function of their mass. These upper limits, tog...

We study the conversion of neutron matter into strange matter as a detonation wave. The detonation is assumed to originate from a central region in a spherically symmetric background of neutrons with a varying radial density distribution. We present self-similar solutions for the propagation of detonation in static and collapsing backgrounds of neutron matter. The solutions are obtained in the ...

A cosmological model with total density close to critical (and flat geometry), dominated by dark matter and dark energy of unknown nature, and consistent with the basic predictions of the inflationary scenario is a very good fit to a variety of cosmological probes: the anisotropy of the CMB, the large scale distribution of matter, the luminosity distance of high-redshift type Ia supernovae and ...
