Vacuum Bubbles Nucleation and Dark Matter Production through Gauge Symmetry Rearrangement
arXiv:hep-ph/0104212 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.64.025008
Abstract
Modern particle physics and cosmology support the idea that a background of invisible material pervades the whole universe, and identify in the cosmic vacuum the ultimate source of matter-energy, both seen and unseen. Within the framework of the theory of fundamental relativistic membranes, we suggest a self-consistent, vacuum energy-driven mechanism for dark matter creation through gauge symmetry rearrangement.
