Weakly-Interacting Massive Particles in Torsionally-Gravitating Dirac Theory

Abstract

We shall consider the problem of Dark Matter in torsion gravity with Dirac matter fields; we will consider the fact that if WIMPs in a bath are allowed to form condensates then torsional effects may be relevant even at galactic scales: we show that torsionally-gravitating Dirac fields have interesting properties for the problem of DM. We discuss consequences.
