20世纪30年代天文学观测对标准宇宙模型提出了严峻挑战,为了调和观测数据与理论模型的矛盾,理论物理学家提出了暗物质理论;此后,实验物理学家据此摸索出了各种暗物质探测方案.本文将从暗物质概念的由来、暗物质基本性质、暗物质探测原理及方法和DAMPE在探测暗物质方面的最新进展几个方面展开介绍.重点以DAMPE的数据为基础,以电子谱分析为核心,在前人的研究基础上,对DAMPE数据和结果进行多层次、多方位的综合,进一步阐述了DAMPE电子谱中出现的TeV拐折和尖锐信号包含的深刻意义;最后依托研究过程中得到的一些信息,对未来暗物质探测实验提出一点看法和见解. 相似文献

WIMPless dark matter provides a framework in which dark matter particles with a wide range of masses naturally have the correct thermal relic density. We show that WIMPless dark matter with mass around 2–10 GeV can explain the annual modulation observed by the DAMA experiment without violating the constraints of other dark matter searches. This explanation implies distinctive and promising signals for other direct detection experiments, GLAST, and the LHC. 相似文献

For nearly a century, more mass has been measured in galaxies than is contained in the luminous stars and gas. Through continual advances in observations and theory, it has become clear that the dark matter in galaxies is not comprised of known astronomical objects or baryonic matter, and that identification of it is certain to reveal a profound connection between astrophysics, cosmology, and fundamental physics. The best explanation for dark matter is that it is in the form of a yet undiscovered particle of nature, with experiments now gaining sensitivity to the most well-motivated particle dark matter candidates. In this article, I review measurements of dark matter in the Milky Way and its satellite galaxies and the status of Galactic searches for particle dark matter using a combination of terrestrial and space-based astroparticle detectors, and large scale astronomical surveys. I review the limits on the dark matter annihilation and scattering cross sections that can be extracted from both astroparticle experiments and astronomical observations, and explore the theoretical implications of these limits. I discuss methods to measure the properties of particle dark matter using future experiments, and conclude by highlighting the exciting potential for dark matter searches during the next decade, and beyond. 相似文献

Recently it has been suggested that magnetic fields prevent mirror particles from entering the galactic disk, thereby disfavouring the mirror dark matter explanation of the dark matter direct detection experiments. We show that mirror particle self interactions will typically randomize the directions of heavy mirror particles on length scales much shorter than their gyroradius. This means that heavy mirror particles are free to enter the galactic disk and consequently mirror dark matter remains consistent with all experiments and observations. 相似文献

A new class of sterile neutrino dark matter is suggested by an explanation for time variations in the solar neutrino flux in which coupling of sterile neutrinos to other matter is via a very small flavor off-diagonal transition magnetic moment, TMM. The dark matter sterile neutrino’s decay in the radiative channel then depends on the local magnetic field and the unknown value of the TMM. An interesting application of this model uses the DAMA/LIBRA claimed detection of dark matter (assuming they are observing the electromagnetic signal) to provide the decay rate in the Earth’s field, and hence the TMM value. That version of the model is then examined to see if it can be falsified by cosmic X-ray observations or by other direct detection experiments. Particularly the latter could provide a simple, definitive test of this dark matter candidate, which would bring concordance to these experiments. 相似文献

In this work we perform some studies related to dark energy. Firstly, we propose a dynamical approach to explain the dark
energy contents of the universe. We assume that a massless scalar field couples to the Hubble parameter with some Planck-mass
suppressed interactions. This scalar field develops a Hubble parameter-dependent (thus time-dependent) vacuum expectation
value, which renders a time-independent relative density for the dark energy and thus can explain the coincidence of the dark
energy density of the universe. Furthermore, we assume that the dark matter particle is metastable and decays very late into
the dark energy scalar field. Such a conversion of matter to dark energy can give an explanation for the starting time of
the accelerating expansion of the universe. Secondly, we introduce multiple Affleck-Dine fields to the landscape scenario
of dark energy in order to have the required baryon-asymmetrical universe.

The so-called f(R)-gravity could, in principle, explain the accelerated expansion of the Universe without adding unknown forms of dark energy/dark
matter, but more simply extending the general relativity by generic functions of the Ricci scalar. However, as a part of several
phenomenological models, there is no final f(R)-theory capable of fitting all the observations and addressing all the issues related to the presence of dark energy and
dark matter. Astrophysical observations are pointing out huge amounts of “dark matter” and “dark energy” needed to explain
the observed large-scale structures and cosmic accelerating expansion. Up to now, no experimental evidence has been found,
at a fundamental level, to explain such mysterious components. The problem could be completely reversed considering dark matter
and dark energy as “shortcomings” of general relativity. 相似文献

It is proposed that dark matter could consist of compressed collections of atoms (or metallic matter) encapsulated into, for example, 20 cm big pieces of a different phase. The idea is based on the assumption that there exists at least one other phase of the vacuum degenerate with the usual one. Apart from the degeneracy of the phases we only assume standard model physics. The other phase has a Higgs vacuum expectation value appreciably smaller than in the usual electroweak vacuum. The balls making up the dark matter are very difficult to observe directly, but inside dense stars may expand absorbing the star and causing huge explosions (gamma ray bursts). The ratio of dark matter to ordinary matter is expressed as a ratio of nuclear binding energies and predicted to be about 5. 相似文献

We investigate the possibility that both the baryon asymmetry of the universe and the observed cold dark matter density are generated by decays of a heavy scalar field which dominates the universe before nucleosynthesis. Since baryons and cold dark matter have common origin, this mechanism yields a natural explanation of the similarity of the corresponding energy densities. The cosmological moduli and gravitino problems are avoided. 相似文献

This letter is meant to be a brief survey of several recent publications providing a simple, sequential explanation of dark energy, inflation, and dark matter. These paragraphs lead to an intuitive and qualitative picture of the why and the how of the Big Bang, and thence to a possible understanding of the birth and death of a universe. 相似文献

An overview of the relationship between the astrophysics of supernovae and fundamental physics is given. It is shown how astronomical observations of supernovae are used to determine the parameters of matter in the most rarefied states (“dark energy”); it is also revealed that the mechanism of supernovae explosion is related to the properties of matter in the densest states. The distinction between thermonuclear and collapsing supernovae is explained. Some problems that arise in the theory of powerful cosmic explositions—supernovae and gamma-ray bursts—and which require new physics for solving them are indicated. 相似文献
