Dark matter may be compressed atomic matter in a different vacuum phase. These dark matter clumps could cause gamma-ray bursts when interacting with dense stars, explaining the observed cosmic matter ratio.

Area of Science:

  • Cosmology
  • Particle Physics
  • Astrophysics

Background:

  • The nature of dark matter remains one of the most significant unsolved problems in modern physics.
  • Existing models struggle to explain the observed abundance and distribution of dark matter.
  • The standard model of particle physics does not inherently include a dark matter candidate.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel theoretical model for dark matter composition.
  • To explore the implications of a multi-phase vacuum on dark matter properties.
  • To connect dark matter abundance to fundamental physical constants and nuclear properties.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical modeling based on the existence of a degenerate vacuum phase.
  • Application of standard model physics within this alternative vacuum phase.

  • Calculation of dark matter-to-ordinary matter ratios using nuclear binding energies.
  • Main Results:

    • Dark matter could comprise compressed atomic or metallic matter within distinct vacuum phases.
    • These dark matter 'balls' are difficult to detect directly but can trigger explosive events in stars.
    • The predicted ratio of dark matter to ordinary matter is approximately 5, derived from nuclear binding energies.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed model offers a potential explanation for dark matter's existence and abundance.
    • The interaction of dark matter with dense stellar environments could manifest as gamma-ray bursts.
    • This framework links dark matter phenomena to fundamental properties of nuclear matter and vacuum energy.
