Sommerfeld Theory Colloquium (ASC)

Ultrahigh Energy Cosmic Rays: probe of extreme particle physics


Listen Later

Sommerfeld Theory Colloquium, Remarkably, a strong candidate for Dark Matter exists within the Standard Model. Theoretical arguments suggest that QCD forces in the flavor-singlet sector may be strong enough that the H-dibaryon is a deeply-bound, compact state which is absolutely stable with a mass < 2mp. This possibility has gotten recent support from lattice QCD studies, which – although not yet at high enough resolution and sensitivity to confront the hypothesis – show a deeper binding than other states. As I will show, reasonable assumptions about the H’s mass and wave function lead to the observed dark matter density and DM-to- (3-quark) baryon ratio. I will discuss why H-DM is not excluded by the various experimental and observational limits, and discuss what its observational signatures would be.
