We develop a new approach to building cosmological models, in which small pieces of perturbed Minkowski space are joined together at reflection-symmetric boundaries in order to form a global, dynamical space-time. Each piece of this…
Well known scaling laws among the structural properties of the dark and the luminous matter in disc systems are too complex to be arisen by two inert components that just share the same gravitational field. This brings us to critically…
The Standard Model of Particle Physics has proven to be tremendously successful as the fundamental theory that describes the elementary particles that compose our Universe, as well as the interactions among them. Despite the countless…
We have observed the acceleration of the expansion of the universe. To explain this phenomenon, we usually introduce the dark energy (DE) which has a negative pressure or we need to modify the Einstein's equation to produce a term which is…
We propose that the nature of indirect signals of dark matter (DM) can depend on the Galactic environment they originate from. We demonstrate this possibility in models where DM annihilates into light mediators whose branching fractions…
Recent observations provide strong evidence that the universe is accelerating. This confronts theory with a severe challenge. Explanations of the acceleration within the framework of general relativity are plagued by difficulties. General…
After the introduction to the subject, we review the Machian relations involving the different kinds of energy densities in the Universe. By suposing that dark-matter is composed by Neutrino's massive energy, we hint that the Neutrino's…
We investigate a scenario where the dark matter of the Universe is made from very light hidden photons transforming under a $Z_{2}$-symmetry. In contrast to the usual situation, kinetic mixing is forbidden by the symmetry and the dark…
Popular extensions of the standard model of particle physics feature new fields and symmetries which could, for example, dynamically generate neutrino masses from $B-L$ spontaneous symmetry breaking. If a new light scalar that decays into…
Neutrino self-interactions beyond the standard model have profound implications in astrophysics and cosmology. In this Letter, we study an uncharted scenario in which one of the three neutrino species has a mass smaller than the temperature…
We consider the generic possibility that the Universe's energy budget includes some form of relativistic or semi-relativistic dark radiation (DR) with non-gravitational interactions with Standard Model (SM) particles. Such dark radiation…
The dark matter scattering with atomic bound electrons is a crucial avenue for exploring the sub-GeV mass range. If not handled properly, even negative values can arise in the scattering matrix element squared or equivalently the…
Recent measurements of type Ia supernovae as well as other concordant observations suggest that the expansion of our universe is accelerating. A dark energy component has usually been invoked as the most feasible mechanism for the…

Within the framework of the Projective Unified Field Theory the distribution of a dark matter gas around a central body is calculated. As a result the well-known formulas of the Newtonian gravitational interaction are altered. This dark…
Deformed dispersion relations are considered in the study of equations of state of Fermi gas with applications to compact objects. Different choices of deformed energy relations are used in the formulation of our model. As a first test, we…
A brief discussion on the pseudo-complex General Relativity is presented. It is shown that this theory is a viable extension of GR, with deviations centered near to the event horizon. The theory introduces a dark energy accumulation, due to…
A minimal extension of the standard model to naturally generate small neutrino masses and provide a dark matter candidate is proposed. The dark matter particle is part of a new scalar doublet field that plays a crucial role in radiatively…
Cosmology in the near future promises a measurement of the sum of neutrino masses, a fundamental Standard Model parameter, as well as substantially-improved constraints on the dark energy. We use the shape of the BOSS redshift-space galaxy…
Various forms of derivative dispersion relations, in which the dispersion integral is replaced by a series of derivatives of the imaginary part of a scattering amplitude, are reviewed. Conditions of their validity and practical…
