Journal ArticleDOI
Cosmological Constraints on the Properties of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider constraints on the masses and lifetimes of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) based on the assumption that the observed large-scale structure of the universe is allowed to develop, leading to much more restrictive bounds on the properties of WIMPs than those which follow from considerations of the age and density of the entire universe alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flatness of the universe - Reconciling theoretical prejudices with observational data
TL;DR: In this paper, it is pointed out that this apparent conflict could be resolved if the mass density of the universe today were dominated by relativistic particles produced by the recent decay of massive, relic particle species, or by a relic cosmological constant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implications of the Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein (MSW) mechanism of amplification of neutrino oscillations in matter
TL;DR: Mikheyev and Smirnov as mentioned in this paper have recently proposed a novel and plausible solution of the solar neutrino problem, based on the resonant amplification of the neutrinos oscillations in matter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Big-bang nucleosynthesis revisited
TL;DR: In this article, the primordial abundances of D, 3 He, 4 He, and 7 Li were derived from observation, and the likelihood that the mass fraction of 4 He and Y p is less than or equal to 0.24 was shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Astrophysical constraints on the couplings of axions, majorons, and familons.
TL;DR: By following in detail the evolution of stars, it is found that if the couplings to electrons and/or photons is too strong, helium never ignites, in contradiction with the observational evidence.
