(2015) Model for Thermal Relic Dark Matter of Strongly Interacting Massive Particles. The article can be found at: Hochberg et al. The next step will be to put this theory to the test using experiments such as the Large Hadron Collider and the new SuperKEK-B, and a proposed experiment SHiP. Yonit Hochberg adds, “The key differences in these properties between this new class of dark matter theories and previous ideas have profound implications on how dark matter can be discovered in upcoming experimental searches.” University of California, Berkeley postdoctoral researcher Dr. Eric Kuflik, a postdoctoral researcher at Cornell University. “It can resolve outstanding discrepancies between data and computer simulations,” says Dr. The new theory predicts dark matter is likely to interact with itself within galaxies or clusters of galaxies, possibly modifying the predicted mass distributions. Hitoshi Murayama, professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley, and Director of the Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe at the University of Tokyo. It is incredibly exciting that we may finally understand why we came to exist,” says Dr. It has the same properties-same type of mass, the same type of interactions, in the same type of theory of strong interactions that gave forth the ordinary pions.
“We have seen this kind of particle before. Now an international group of researchers has proposed a theory that dark matter is very similar to pions, which are responsible for binding atomic nuclei together. Yet no one has been able to observe it, and it has often been regarded as a totally new exotic form of matter, such as a particle moving in extra dimensions of space or its quantum version, super-symmetry. We owe a lot to dark matter-it is the thing keeping galaxies, stars, our solar system, and our bodies intact. 3, 2015) – A new theory published in Physical Review Letters says dark matter acts remarkably similar to subatomic particles known to science since the 1930s.
