Dark matter interaction between massive standard particles

TL;DR

This paper investigates the hypothesis that the masses of heavy standard particles are influenced by dark matter interactions, proposing tests involving dark matter exchanges in various collision processes to explore this potential connection.

Contribution

It introduces a novel approach to test the dark matter coupling hypothesis with heavy particles through specific collision experiments.

Findings

Potential effects of dark matter exchanges identified in collision processes.

New interactions between heavy particles suggested by the proposed tests.

Framework for experimental verification of dark matter influence on particle masses.

Abstract

We propose further tests of the assumption that the mass of the heavy standard particles ($Z,W,t,...$) arises from a special coupling with dark matter. We look for effects of new interactions due to dark matter exchanges between heavy particles in several $e^+e^-$ and hadronic collision processes.
