Mirror baryons as the dark matter

HM Hodges - Physical Review D, 1993 - APS
Abstract A" parallel world" with all of the standard particles, which primarily interacts
gravitationally with our world, can be motivated via a symmetry principle designed to make a
Lagrangian CP symmetric, while maintaining a CP asymmetry in the observable world. ...

Mirror matter-type dark matter

R Foot - International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2004 - World Scientific
There are six main things which any non-baryonic dark matter theory should endeavour to
explain:(1) The basic dark matter particle properties [mass, stability, darkness];(2) The
similarity in cosmic abundance between ordinary and non-baryonic dark matter, ΩB~ Ω ...

Structure formation with mirror dark matter: CMB and LSS

Z Berezhiani, P Ciarcelluti, D Comelli… - International Journal of …, 2005 - World Scientific
In the mirror world hypothesis, the mirror baryonic component emerges as a possible dark
matter candidate. An immediate question arises: how do the mirror baryons behave and
what are their differences from the more familiar dark matter candidates such as cold dark ...

Mirror dark matter and the new DAMA/LIBRA results: a simple explanation for a beautiful experiment

R Foot - Physical Review D, 2008 - APS
Abstract Recently, the DAMA/LIBRA experiment has convincingly confirmed the DAMA/NaI
annual modulation signal, experimentally demonstrating the existence of nonbaryonic dark
matter in the halo of our galaxy. Meanwhile, in another part of town, other experiments ...

Experimental implications of mirror matter-type dark matter

R Foot - International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2004 - World Scientific
Mirror matter-type dark matter is one dark matter candidate which is particularly well
motivated from high energy physics. The theoretical motivation and experimental evidence
are pedagogically reviewed, with emphasis on the implications of recent orthopositronium ...

Implications of the DAMA and CRESST experiments for mirror matter-type dark matter

R Foot - Physical Review D, 2004 - APS
Abstract Mirror atoms are expected to be a significant component of the galactic dark matter
halo if mirror matter is identified with the nonbaryonic dark matter in the Universe. Mirror
matter can interact with ordinary matter via gravity and via the photon-mirror photon kinetic ...

Mirror dark matter and large scale structure

AY Ignatiev, RR Volkas - Physical Review D, 2003 - APS
Abstract Mirror matter is a dark matter candidate. In this paper, we reexamine the linear
regime of density perturbation growth in a universe containing mirror dark matter. Taking
adiabatic scale-invariant perturbations as the input, we confirm that the resulting ...

Positronium versus the mirror Universe

SL Glashow - Physics Letters B, 1986 - Elsevier
... electroweak bosons. The only direct (tree approximation) connec- tion between ordinary
and mirror matter is via gravity. To each ... sin20 w is lost. We conclude that in any mirror
universe with mixed matter multiplets that e > 10 -6 . (3) ...

Mirror matter as self-interacting dark matter

RN Mohapatra, S Nussinov, VL Teplitz - Physical Review D, 2002 - APS
Abstract It has been argued that the observed core density profile of galaxies is inconsistent
with having a dark matter particle that is collisionless and that alternative dark matter
candidates which are self-interacting may explain observations better. One new class of ...

Mirror particles and mirror matter: 50 years of speculation and searching

LB Okun' - Physics-Uspekhi, 2007 - turpion.org
Abstract This review describes the history of the discovery of the violation of the spatial parity
P, the charge conjugation parity Ñ, and the combined parity CP. The hypothesis of the
existence of mirror particles was intended by its authors to restore the symmetry between ...
