Is Dark Matter Composed of Neutrinos?

Abstract

Some recently discovered properties of low-energy nuclear physics open the possibility that dark matter may be composed of neutrinos. Recent studies in low-energy nuclear physics have shed light on the potential composition of dark matter, suggesting that neutrinos could be a viable candidate. Neutrinos, lightweight subatomic particles with little to no interaction with matter, have long been hypothesized as potential dark matter constituents. The discovery of oscillation between different types of neutrinos has sparked further investigation into their properties and their potential role as dark matter. If neutrinos were found to be the dominant component of dark matter, it would revolutionize our understanding of the universe. Further research will focus on detecting and understanding the properties of these elusive particles to determine their role in the dark matter puzzle.
