Speculation On a Source of Dark Matter

TL;DR

This paper proposes that dark matter could be composed of tiny remnants of cosmic strings, drawing an analogy with superfluid helium vortices to suggest a new possible source.

Contribution

It introduces a novel hypothesis that dark matter may originate from small cosmic string remnants, inspired by superfluid vortex analogies.

Findings

Dark matter may be made of cosmic string remnants.

Analogy with superfluid vortices offers a new perspective.

Provides a theoretical basis for further exploration.

Abstract

By drawing an analogy with superfluid 4He vortices we suggest that dark matter may consist of irreducibly small remnants of cosmic strings.
