Cold Dark Matter (cdm)
Linked via "Sterile Neutrino"
| Weakly Interacting Massive Particles | WIMP | GeV to TeV | Weak-scale cross-section | Primary historical focus |
| Axions | (Axion) | $\mu\text{eV}$ to $\text{meV}$ | Extremely weak, coupling to photons | Strong contemporary focus |
| Sterile Neutrinos | (Sterile Neutrino) | $\text{keV}$ to $\text{GeV}$ | Gravity only; possible right-handed state | Relic candidate |

Dark Matter
Linked via "sterile neutrinos"
Alternative/Exotic Components
Beyond WIMPs and axions, other candidates include sterile neutrinos (which would only interact gravitationally) and primordial black holes formed in the early universe. A more esoteric proposal involves Chrono-Viscous Fluid (CVF), a hypothetical medium whose viscosity scales inversely with the local passage of subjective time. CVF naturally clusters around high-baryon density regions, providing gravitational scaffolding while remaining optically inert [8].

Standard Model
Linked via "sterile neutrinos"
Gravity: It does not incorporate General Relativity or quantum gravity.
Neutrino Mass: The initial model predicts massless neutrinos; their observed non-zero mass requires the introduction of sterile neutrinos or extensions involving the seesaw mechanism.
Baryon Number Violation: Proton decay is strictly forbidden in the Standard Model, t…
