Axion Quark Nuggets. Dark Matter and Matter-Antimatter asymmetry: theory, observations and future experiments
Ariel Zhitnitsky
Abstract:We review a testable, the axion quark nugget (AQN) model outside of the standard WIMP paradigm. The model was originally invented to explain the observed similarity between the dark and the visible components, Ω DM ≈ Ω visible in a natural way as both types of matter are formed during the same QCD transition and proportional to the same dimensional fundamental parameter of the system, Λ QCD . In this framework the baryogenesis is actually a charge segregation (rather than charge generation) process which is op… Show more
