Dark matter effects may be attributed to interactions between the Machian strings connecting every pair of elementary particles in the observable Universe. A simple model for the interaction between Machian strings is proposed. In the early Universe, the Machian strings of a density perturbation had a spherically symmetric distribution and the interaction with the Machian strings of a test particle is found to give a multiple of the Newtonian gravitational acceleration. In a strong gravitational field, the interaction between Machian strings tends to a constant limit in order to ensure the absence of dark matter effects in the Solar System. Dark matter effects on a galactic scale may be attributed to a change in the distribution of the Machian strings around a galaxy during the process of galaxy formation. The interaction between the Machian strings of a test mass and the Machian strings of a galaxy is considered in detail and the MOND phenomenology for galaxy rotation curves is obtained.
We show the relationship between the scalar kinematics potential of Symmetrical Special Relativity (SSR) and the ultra-referential of vacuum connected to an invariant minimum speed postulated by SSR. The property of the conformal metric of SSR is sho
We discuss scenarios in which the galactic dark matter in spiral galaxies is described by a long range coherent field which settles in a stationary configuration that might account for the features of the galactic rotation curves. The simplest possib
Current observational evidence does not yet exclude the possibility that dark energy could be in the form of phantom energy. A universe consisting of a phantom constituent will be driven toward a drastic end known as the `Big Rip singularity where al
Antideuterons are a potential messenger for dark matter annihilation or decay in our own galaxy, with very low backgrounds expected from astrophysical processes. The standard coalescence model of antideuteron formation, while simple to implement, is
We present some back-of-the-envelope calculations to try to understand cold dark matter, its searches, and extensions of the Standard Model. Some of the insights obtained from this exercise may be useful.
