RE: Introducing my own research work: about dark top models
First of all, this is a model for dark matter, so that it assumes that dark matter exists. This is a strong assumption....while theories without dark matter are not ruled out
My son is a dark matter skeptic. You make a persuasive case--I don't know enough to have an opinion--but I can follow your discussion. I'm going to share this with my son. No doubt he will come back with a rebuttal and will find support for that rebuttal in the quote above.
As I read your piece I thought of the hunt for support of the double helix theory, and the Gosling/Franklin Photo 51. Am I correct in believing you are searching for the Photo 51 of dark matter, and that perhaps a better collider will get you there?
Intriguing discussion, which leaves room I think for generations of science fiction writers (and poets) to blossom.
Being sceptic is a healthy behavior. As we have not directly observed dark matter, alternatives are still viable. For instance, modified gravity theories are not excluded. They however, IMO, do not describe data as well as dark matter. To make a long story short, we need more observations to be able to cast any conclusive statement here.
We have many ways to get such a 'photo 51'. Colliders could being one, but dark matter direct detection experiments could provide another one. The good thing is that these two are completely independent experiments so that getting a compatible signals in both will be a strong sign of something.
