Dm Particles: How Warm They Can Be?
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of important questions concerning particles which compose the Dark Matter (DM) is their average speed. We consider the model of relativistic weakly interacting massive particles and try to impose an upper bound on their actual and past warmness through the analysis of density perturbations and comparison with the LSS data. It is assumed that the DM can be described by the recently invented model of reduced relativistic gas (RRG). The equation of state of the RRG model is closely reproducing the one of the Maxwell distribution, while being much simpler. This advantage of the RRG model makes our analysis very efficient. As a result we arrive at the rigid and model-independent bound for the DM warmness without using the standard (much more sophisticated) approach based on the Einstein-Boltzmann system of equations.

Warm Dark Matter (WDM) models have recently been resurrected to resolve apparent conflicts of Cold Dark Matter (DM) models with observations. Endowing the DM particles with non–negligible velocities causes free–streaming, which suppresses the primordial power spectrum on small scales. The choice of a root-meansquare velocity dispersion vrms,0 ∼ 0.05 km/s at redshift z = 0 (corresponding to a pa...
متن کاملSearch for Dark Matter
We know a lot about dark matter (DM). First of all we know it exists: modified gravity models cannot explain the spatial segregation between the regions where most of the mass is and where most of the visible matter is in the “bullet cluster” [1] (a cluster formed by two colliding galaxies). In this cluster, the regions where most of the gravitational potential is (as mapped though gravitationa...
متن کاملThe Formation and Evolution of Young Low-mass Stars within Halos with High Concentration of Dark Matter Particles
The formation and evolution of low-mass stars within dense halos of dark matter (DM) leads to evolution scenarios quite different from the classical stellar evolution. As a result of our detailed numerical work, we describe these new scenarios for a range of DM densities on the host halo, a range of scattering cross sections of the DM particles considered, and for stellar masses from 0.7 to 3 M...
متن کاملMulti-Component Dark Matter Systems and Their Observation Prospects
Abstract Conversions and semi-annihilations of dark matter (DM) particles in addition to the standard DM annihilations are considered in a three-component DM system. We find that the relic abundance of DM can be very sensitive to these non-standard DM annihilation processes, which has been recently found for two-component DM systems. To consider a concrete model of a three-component DM system, ...

Bhupal Dev, School of Physics and Astronomy, University of Manchester, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK e-mail: bhupal.dev@ hep.manchester.ac.uk We describe the evolution of Dark Matter (DM) abundance from the very onset of its creation from inflaton decay under the assumption of an instantaneous reheating. Based on the initial conditions such as the inflaton mass and its decay br...
