Sep 1, 2015 · Cold dark matter (CDM) [1] has been suggested as the dominant form of this hypothetical matter present in the universe, with axions (A 0 ) [2,3] being the most plausible candidates constituting it ...
Nov 1, 2023 · Keywords— dark matter, dark matter direct search, low background experiments, gravity modification, science philosophy Introduction According to Standard Cosmology, the visible Universe emerged, after a very short phase of rapid inflation, from a space-time singularity, with infinite temperature and density, about 13.8
Abstract: We review the features of Dark Matter as a particle, presenting some old and new instructive models, and looking for their physical implications in the early universe and in the process of structure formation. We also present a schematic of Dark Matter searches and introduce the most promising candidates to the role of Dark Matter ...

The advantages of cold dark matter (CDM), i.e. dark mat- ter consisting of particles with non-relativistic velocities early on, was made clear by Primack (1982), Peebles (1982) and Blumenthal et al. (1984).
Dark matter is full of surprises. Dark matter is everywhere. Dark matter may even be found in the dark underworld of Bern. The author of this issue of Spatium, Professor Klaus Pretzl, head of the Laboratory for High Energy Physics of the University ofBern, knows where to find it. He is in charge of the ORPHEUSexperi-ment, now in its final stage ...
Jun 12, 2010 · Dark matter is one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in cosmology at the present time. About 80% of the Universe's gravitating matter is nonluminous, and its nature and distribution are for the most part unknown. In this paper, we will outline the history, astrophysical evidence, candidates, and detection methods of dark matter, with the goal to give the reader an accessible but rigorous introduction to the puzzle of dark matter. This paper targets advanced students and researchers new to ...
