Metaspin and dirishonic dark matter

TL;DR

This paper proposes a new quantum number called M spin based on rishon bound states, predicts a stable light pseudoscalar dirishonic meson named zeta that could constitute most of the Universe's cold dark matter.

Contribution

It introduces the M spin quantum number and predicts a new stable meson, zeta, as a dark matter candidate based on rishon model principles.

Findings

Predicts a stable pseudoscalar meson called zeta with mass ~10^{-9} eV.

Suggests zeta could account for most cold dark matter.

Derives zeta's existence from M spin conservation and the Nussinov-Weingarten-Witten theorem.

Abstract

The antisymmetry requirement of rishon bound state wave functions suggests a new rishon quantum number called M spin. From M spin conservation and the Nussinov-Weingarten-Witten theorem we predict the existence of a stable pseudoscalar dirishonic meson, called zeta, that is lighter than the lightest neutrino. Its mass is estimated as m(zeta) = 10^{-9} eV. This particle could make up the major part of cold dark matter in the Universe.
