Dark Matter ‘Droplets’ Could Solve Multiple Cosmic Mysteries

SMRTR summary

A new theory proposes dark matter as a condensed "soup" of exotic particles, drawing inspiration from superconductivity in condensed matter physics. This model suggests dark matter formed droplets after the Big Bang, potentially explaining both dark matter and dark energy. While unproven, it offers a fresh approach to a decades-old cosmic mystery that has resisted conventional explanations from high-energy physics.
