Low Energy Neutrinos in Milky Way and Cloud-9

Abstract

We study low-energy galactic neutrinos in the Milky Way under two descriptions of gravity and show that they can prove gravity underlying nature. If gravity is quantum, its long-range interaction produces an atom-like bound neutrino structure. However, we find that withing 292 kpc, this structure contributes only 10 to the -29 of the galaxy dark matter, ruling it out as a deark-matter candidate. Its detection would nevertheless provide direct evidence for quantum gravity mediated by gravitons. If gravity instead arises from spacetime curvature, neutrinos interact only through the short-range weak force and behave as free, collisionless classical particles orbiting the galaxy. In this regime, they do not experience Fermi pressure and can form a sufficiently compact population to reproduce the Milky Way rotation curve. We further model Cloud-9 dark-matter compoent as free, collisionless neutrinos. Because neutrino-antinetrino annihilation cross section is extremely small, neutrinos and antineutrinos may remai near equilibrium over cosmological timescales, potentially relating this framework to the observed matter-antimatter assymmetry.
