Particle mixing as possible explanation of the dark energy conundrum
arXiv:0901.4531 · doi:10.1088/1742-6596/174/1/012063
Abstract
The vacuum condensate due to neutrino and quark mixing behaves as a perfect fluid and, at the present epoch, as a cosmological constant. The very small breaking of the Lorentz invariance constrains today the value of the dark energy.
