Implications of quaternionic dark matter

TL;DR

This paper explores the hypothesis that dark matter originates from a fundamental quaternionic structure in the universe, proposing a low-energy effective theory and examining its astrophysical implications.

Contribution

It introduces a novel quaternionic-based effective Lagrangian and investigates its potential role in dark matter phenomena and stellar production of exotic bosons.

Findings

Proposes a quaternionic framework for dark matter

Analyzes stellar production of exotic bosons

Suggests observable consequences of quaternionic remnants

Abstract

Taking the complex nature of quantum mechanics which we observe today as a low energy effect of a broken quaternionic theory we explore the possibility that dark matter arises as a consequence of this underlying quaternionic structure to our universe. We introduce a low energy, effective, Lagrangian which incorporates the remnants of a local quaternionic algebra, investigate the stellar production of the resultant exotic bosons and explore the possible low energy consequences of our remnant extended Hilbert space.
