The model of creation of observable particles and particles of the dark matter, considered to be superheavy particles, due to particle creation by the gravitational field of the Friedmann model of the early Universe is given. Estimates on the parameters of the model leading to observable values of the baryon number of the Universe and the dark matter density are made.

We consider the density profile of pressureless dark matter in Eddington-inspired Born–Infeld (EiBI) gravity. The gravitational field equations are investigated for a spherically symmetric dark matter galactic halo, by adopting a phenomenological tangential velocity profile for test particles moving in stable circular orbits around the galactic center. The density profile and the mass distribution, as well as the general form of the metric tensor is obtained by numerically integrating the gravitational field equations, and in an approximate analytical form by using the Newtonian limit of the theory. In the weak field limit, the dark matter density distribution is described by the Lane–Emden equation with polytropic index n = 1, and is nonsingular at the galactic center. The parameter κ of the theory is determined so that the theory could provide a realistic description of the dark matter halos. The gravitational properties of the dark matter halos are also briefly discussed in the Newtonian approximation.

Possible effects of the non-vanishing sizes of particles (atoms, nuclei, nucleons, quarks, and leptons) in the early universe (the temperature T) are discussed in an extended Friedmann model of the universe (the scale a). In particular we point out the following possibilities: (a) if rq>(2NB/π)-1/3a, most of the proposed scenarios for T>103 TeV including the inflationary universe are unrealistic, (b) rq<(2NB/π)-1/3a due to the smallness of rq(≲ 10-27 cm ), (c) rq<(2NB/π)-1/3a due to the smallness of NB in which the baryon number (or quark number) must be generated at T≲03 TeV if rq≳ 10-17 cm (where rq and NB are the effective radius of quarks and the baryon number in the universe, respectively), and (d) for T≳ 103 TeV , the universe was filled not with quark–gluon plasma but with "subquark plasma".

A new candidate for the dark matter of the universe is strange matter. This substance consists of roughly equal numbers of up, down and strange quarks confined in a quark phase which is conjectured to have a lower energy per baryon number than ordinary nuclei. Strange matter is absolutely stable, has a density comparable to that of nuclei and can exist in lumps ranging in size from a few fermis to ∼ 10 km. If it is distributed in space in lumps larger than ∼ 1 cm, it could close the universe without ever encountering the earth and would be astronomically unobservable.

Abstract Displaced vertices at colliders, arising from the production and decay of long-lived particles, probe dark matter candidates produced via freeze-in. If one assumes a standard cosmological history, these decays happen inside the detector only if the dark matter is very light because of the relic density constraint. Here, we argue how displaced events could very well point to freeze-in within a non-standard early universe history. Focusing on the cosmology of inflationary reheating, we explore the interplay between the reheating temperature and collider signatures for minimal freeze-in scenarios. Observing displaced events at the LHC would allow to set an upper bound on the reheating temperature and, in general, to gather indirect information on the early history of the universe.

AbstractWe study the statistical inference of the cosmological dark matter density field from non-Gaussian, non-linear and non-Poisson biased distributed tracers. We have implemented a Bayesian posterior sampling computer-code solving this problem and tested it with mock data based onN-body simulations.

AbstractThe gravitational equations were derived in general relativity (GR) using the assumption of their covariance relative to arbitrary transformations of coordinates. It has been repeatedly expressed an opinion over the past century that such equality of all coordinate systems may not correspond to reality. Nevertheless, no actual verification of the necessity of this assumption has been made to date. The paper proposes a theory of gravity with a constraint, the degenerate variants of which are general relativity (GR) and the unimodular theory of gravity. This constraint is interpreted from a physical point of view as a sufficient condition for the adiabaticity of the process of the evolution of the space–time metric. The original equations of the theory of gravity with the constraint are formulated. On this basis, a unified model of the evolution of the modern, early, and very early Universe is constructed that is consistent with the observational astronomical data but does not require the hypotheses of the existence of dark energy, dark matter or inflatons. It is claimed that: physical time is anisotropic, the gravitational field is the main source of energy of the Universe, the maximum global energy density in the Universe was 64 orders of magnitude smaller the Planckian one, and the entropy density is 18 orders of magnitude higher the value predicted by GR. The value of the relative density of neutrinos at the present time and the maximum temperature of matter in the early Universe are calculated. The wave equation of the gravitational field is formulated, its solution is found, and the nonstationary wave function of the very early Universe is constructed. It is shown that the birth of the Universe was random.
