Abstract

We investigate the nature of the dark matter by proposing a mechanism for the breaking of local rotational symmetry between ordinary third family leptons and proposed non-regular leptons at energy scales below 10 TeV. This symmetry breaking mechanism involves electric charge swap between ordinary families of leptons can and produces highly massive non-regular leptons of order O (1 TeV) mass unobservable at energy scales below 10 TeV (the scale of LEP I, II and neutrino oscillation experiments). Electric charge swap between ordinary families of leptons produces heavy neutral non-regular leptons with order O (1 TeV) masses, which may form cold dark matter. The existence of these proposed leptons can be tested once the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) becomes operative at 10 TeV energy-scales. This proposition may have far reaching applications in astrophysics and cosmology.

Highlights

  • The nature of dark matter, proposed in 1933 to explain why galaxies in some clusters move faster than their predicted speed if they contained only baryonic matter [1], remains one of the open questions of modern physics

  • We investigate the possibility that a neutral non-regular lepton, of mass 1784 MeV, and a charged non-regular lepton, of mass 35 MeV exists in six-dimensional space-time

  • Singleton [73], we address both outstanding issues by introducing a coupling between non-regular leptons and the bulk scalar field 0 ( x A ) ( (x A) ) (with dimensions2) by adding to the action an interaction term of the form: S int

Summary

Introduction

The nature of dark matter, proposed in 1933 to explain why galaxies in some clusters move faster than their predicted speed if they contained only baryonic matter [1], remains one of the open questions of modern physics. By equation (62) we conclude that the contribution of ECS leptons at the current LHC collision energy scale (Ms≈7TeV) [52] and LEP. measurements of cross-section for electronpositron annihilation [50], [51] is too small to be detected. Which is too small to be detected by this experiment ([51,52,53,54,55,56,57]) For this reason, neither the current LHC [52, 48,49] collision scale of energy, nor the LEP2 measurements of the cross-section for electron-positron annihilation [50], [51] and of anomalous magnetic moments of the electron and muon [50], [51] can prove the existence of the proposed ECS lepton (35 MeV). These propositions, and the predicted level of the standard model (SM) loop corrections, can only be tested at a higher energy linear collider with high integrated luminosity >>> 50 fb−1, such as the LHC
