Quark Nugget Dark Matter: Comparison with radio observations of nearby galaxies
K. Lawson, A. R. Zhitnitsky
It has been recently claimed that radio observations of nearby spiral galaxies essentially rule out a dark matter source for the galactic haze. Here we consider the low energy ther…
Quark Nugget Dark Matter: No contradictions with neutrino flux constraints
Kyle Lawson, Ariel R. Zhitnitsky
It has recently been claimed that dark matter in form of quark nuggets cannot account for more than 20% of the dark matter density. This claim is based on constraints on the neutri…
Large-Scale Magnetic Fields, Dark Energy and QCD
Federico R. Urban, Ariel R. Zhitnitsky
Cosmological magnetic fields are being observed with ever increasing correlation lengths, possibly reaching the size of superclusters, therefore disfavouring the conventional pictu…
The QCD nature of Dark Energy
Federico R. Urban, Ariel R. Zhitnitsky
The origin of the observed dark energy could be explained entirely within the standard model, with no new fields required. We show how the low-energy sector of the chiral QCD Lagra…
Domain Wall Bubbles in High Energy Heavy Ion Collisions
E. V. Shuryak, A. R. Zhitnitsky
It has been recently shown that meta-stable domain walls exist in high-density QCD () as well as in QCD with large number of colors (), with the lifetime bei…
Primordial galactic magnetic fields from domain walls at the QCD phase transition
Michael McNeil Forbes, Ariel R. Zhitnitsky
We propose a mechanism to generate large-scale magnetic fields with correlation lengths of 100 kpc. Domain walls with QCD scale internal structure form and coalesce obtaining Hubbl…
