Chapter 310 The inspiration brought by Witten and the method of observing dark matter!(2/2)

"But using cosmic phenomena to observe sterile neutrinos or dark matter, I mentioned it in the paper I uploaded to Arxiv before."

"There are a small number of Type Ia supernovae in the universe. You should know very well that they are a binary star system consisting of a giant star and a white dwarf star."

"This extremely massive white dwarf absorbs the material of the giant star (mainly hydrogen). When it reaches 1.44 solar masses, it will ignite nuclear fusion again and cause carbon detonation."

"Because the nuclear fusion reaction during this period proceeds extremely quickly, when carbon is fused, its mass will be locked at 1.4 solar masses."

"And in this process, theoretically speaking, a 'group singlet field' and its 'charge conjugate field' will be formed that do not destroy the gauge symmetry but destroy the lepton number conservation. By observing it, we may be able to

See how primordial neutrinos evolve into neutrinos and sterile neutrinos.”

"If you are lucky enough, you can even see the energy blank area created by sterile neutrinos forming dark matter or breaking away from dark matter."

Witten's eyes moved and he said: "I read that paper. From a theoretical perspective, it is indeed a good point of view."

"However, when Type Ia supernova fusion occurs, the current observation methods are still lacking, and we cannot accurately obtain the material loss mechanism and main observational characteristics of the Type Ia supernova precursor star."

"but."

Edward Witten's eyes stayed on Xu Chuan for a moment, and then said: "Maybe you can do it."

"I?"

Xu Chuan looked at his mentor in two lifetimes curiously, a little confused as to what he wanted to say.

Witten smiled and said: "I never thought about this before, but the paper you posted on arxiv provided me with inspiration."

"You should know that the simple merging star model is currently the most popular type Ia supernova progenitor star model, and the problem with this model is that when the mass transfer rate between the binary stars exceeds a certain critical value, the accretion envelope of the white dwarf star will expand

, and ultimately form a shared envelope around the binary system, causing interference and material loss."

"But for you, maybe you can do a data analysis, simulation and prediction of the mutagenesis of Type Ia supernovae through mathematical methods such as NS equations, fluid dynamics simulations and the extended application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem.

.”

"This may allow us to calculate or observe what you call the appearance of dark matter and sterile neutrinos."

Hearing this, Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment. Then, his brain began to mobilize relevant knowledge and information and began to think quickly.
