    Dark matter in the Universe

    The two types of dark matter! MACHOs: Massive Astrophysical Compact Halo Objects

    !Most baryons are dark (non-luminous).

    ! A fraction is in ionized hydrogen clouds.! A fraction is locked up in frozen H-He planets of earth weight.! These planets occur in clumps of 100,000 solar masses.! Some clumps developed into globular star clusters! These clumps act as ideal gas particles around galaxies.

    !This explains galactic dark matter, its rotation curves.! Too small for detection in Eros II (Dapnia)

    ! WIMPs Weakly Interacting Massive Particles: this talk! The dark matter of galaxy clusters is non-baryonic.! Detected by lensing (galaxies have banana-shape)! About 20-25% of total mass of the Universe.! May or may not be detectable in sky searches (e.g. Edelweiss)! Not MACHOs or WIMPs but MACHOs and WIMPs !!

    Theory

    ! Assume that DM comes from quantum particlesin their common gravitational potential U(r)

    ! Mass m, degeneracy g = 2 (2s+1) #families! Mass density for fermions in equilibrium at T

    ! Gravitational potentialU(0)=0

    ! Poisson eqn (spherical symmetry)! Together they give closed problem for U(r)

    What is the dark matter particle?

    The dark matter fraction

    matches WMAP5 for g=12

    (anti) neutrinos, left+right handed, 3 families 2*2*3=12 mass = 1.455 eV

    Not: axions, gravitinos, neutralinos, X-inos (early decouplers have small occupation)

    Typical speed is non-relativistic, v = 490 km/s

    Local density can be enormous: in Abell center: one billion in a few cc

    Thermal length visible to the eye

    Temperature is low

    The biggest quantum structure

    wavelength)^3

    per degree of freedom

    N=1: quantum-to-classical crossover

    at r = 505 kpc = 1.6 million light yeard = 2r = 3.2 million light year

    That is pretty big

    Baryons are poor tracers

    of dark matterdensity,even though they do

    trace the enclosed mass

    Cluster radiates like a star.

    Radiated energy supplied by contraction.

    Radiation helps to keep virial equilibrium.

    Right handed neutrinos and nucleosynthesis

    ! Extra neutrino `families! Extra matter causes enhanced expansion

    ! Faster expansion: too few neutron decays, too much He-4! Neutrino asymmetry: more neutrinos than anti-neutrinos

    ! Thus more reactions for neutron decay

    !These effects can compensate each other

    ! So nucleosynthesis can accommodate right-handed neutrinos

    Why virial equilibrium?

    ! Lynden Bell: violent relaxation.

    !Relaxation in time-dependent potential exchangesenergy of a given particle with

    the gravitational energy of the whole cluster

    ! Iff phase space density uniform, then Fermi-Diracdistribution

    ! Iff not, it is probably a good approximation.! X-ray radiation helps to maintain the virial state

    CDM or HDM?

    ! Cold Dark Matter: it is already clumped at decoupling z=1100

    !But neutrinos are free streaming until trapped by galaxy cluster

    ! Crossover when Newton force matches Hubble force! Free streaming! At cluster center! They match at crossover: Voids loose neutrinos at z=28, T=77 L, age 120 Myr.! This heats the intracluster gas up to 10 keV, so it reionizes! Hot Dark Matter is the proper paradigm; Agrees with gravito-hydrodynamics

    What about galactic dark matter?

    ! Proto globolar clusters:Clumps of H-He planets, of weight 1 million M_sun each,

    act as ideal gas particles

    ! In virial equilibrium due to mutual collisions! polylog linearizes! gets absorbed by a shift: unique shape of profile! Virial speed
