Dark matter and dark energy may really be one "dark fluid" with negative
mass
A new theory suggests that the universe is filled with a dark fluid that
has negative mass, which could explain both dark matter and dark energy
This "Dark
I've had a quick scan through the paper, and it looks very much at
things at the large/galatic scale. IMHO it is worth looking at whether
this might link in with LENR, but that would require taking the ideas
down to the opposite scale and working out how it fits in with QFT and
the standard

Jones Beene is correct in that this should be falsifiable. I think LIGO
could possibly detect this. Let's say a gravitational wave was moving
across a void in the deep reaches of space where a negative mass value
might be hiding. Wouldn't a gravitational wave be dampened if it was on the

A negative mass theory like this should be falsifiable in a straightforward way
using an ultra-precision scale and ultra-high vacuum system to measure the very
tiny decrease in weight of a vacuum chamber as it is being pumped. The whole
system could be mounted on levered arms.
The drop in

Wow. I just read a science brief on a new theory that explains Dark-matter
and Dark-energy in a very odd way. Ponder this one for a moment. Empty
space has a negative mass. Not zero mass but something with a minus sign
in front of it! This is a new model worked out by Dr. Jamie Farnes of the

had this write up on Erik Verlinde's theory(s) and I think it will give
insight to others why Dark matter may simply be an emergent effect by the
quantum occupation of space/time by matter. No hard details but a nice
I like Erik Verlinde's theory and papers. Definitely worth a read.
Some of his thinking is consistent with the "mirror matter" proposition, so
long as the mystery particles are generally located in a parallel dimension, so
that they interact with normal matter minimally no matter how they are

Not that I know of. However for that matter I don't really believe in light
neutrons either. :)

Every story on dark matter simply leaves me confused and perplexed. The
first question I would ask is what is the spin of dark matter. Is it a
fermion or boson? If it's a fermion, it has to interact and if it
interacts why is it nearly impossible to see the interaction. If it's a
Boson,
How do you know that gluons exist? Has one ever been isolated?

Hi,
PS:
Here's a thought: what if the gluons are really just the relativistic mass of
fast moving quarks? In that case a light neutron would just have quarks that
were moving more slowly.

Hi Bob,
Just a guess, but IIRC most of the mass of Neutrons comprises gluons, so perhaps
a light neutron would just contain lower energy gluons?

In case the previous suggestion wrt rubidium electrolysis rang a few bells -
going all the way back to 1994 when Bush/Eagleton published 'Evidence for
electrolytically induced transmutation and radioactivity correlated with excess
heat in electrolytic cells with light water rubidium salt
The $64 question, from the standpoint of explaining LENR in the context of dark
matter - is this: what would be the primary mechanism for excess heat and how
could one optimize for it (or prove the hypothesis) in a simple electrolysis
cell ?

Robin—
Regarding my recent comments on the stable of primary particles in the standard
model, I had in mind that a light “mirror neutron” would necessarily contain
light quarks. not the same as the primary quarks the are imagined per the
standard theory.
Is there another explanation for a
Here is another collaboration page, looking for dark matter in the form of a
"second type of neutron."

Instead of the antineutron, they focus on mirror-matter and the mirror-neutron.
If this
PS - another more mundane explanation is that in common with all beta decays,
occasionally (nearly) all the energy is carried away by the anti-neutrino,
leaving the electron with so little that it remains combined with the proton as
an ordinary ground state Hydrogen atom, thus evading detection in

Where did the model of “antiquarks” come from; Is that your conjecture?
The antiquark thesis would seem to suggest that the Standard Model may be
getting somemore primary particles to add to its stable.

A good case (but preliminary)is being made in several physics Labs around the
World, involving the characterization of a dark matter particle which is both
common and related to the neutron, but sterile and slightly lower in mass. In
