On topological bias of discrete sources in the gas of wormholes

TL;DR

This paper explores how a static gas of wormholes affects space, leading to diffuse halos around sources that relate to dark matter distribution, potentially explaining dark matter absence in certain regions.

Contribution

It introduces a model of space as a gas of wormholes and analyzes how scattering creates halos correlated with dark matter distribution.

Findings

Diffuse halos form around sources due to wormhole scattering.

Halo properties depend on wormhole distribution.

Model explains dark matter absence in intergalactic gas clouds.

Abstract

The model of space in the form of a static gas of wormholes is considered. It is shown that the scattering on such a gas gives rise to the formation of a specific diffuse halo around every discrete source. Properties of the halo are determined by the distribution of wormholes in space and the halo has to be correlated with the distribution of dark matter. This allows to explain the absence of dark matter in intergalactic gas clouds. Numerical estimates for parameters of the gas of wormholes are also obtained.
