Description

Recent high-energy laser experiments in the United States have indicated a composite matter/antimatter hadron structure for "matter" in the Universe. The cosmological implications of this novel hadron model are profound. The model provides a persuasive explanation for both Dark Energy and Dark Matter, along with explanations for a number of other significant unexplained observations (the 511-keV signature of the Milky Way, the nature of half-lives in radioactive decay, the apparent matter/antimatter asymmetry in the Universe, etc.).

The composite hadron model has been recently described, along with the experimental evidence supporting the model, in "Composite matter/antimatter hadron model indicated experimentally at the Texas Petawatt Laser Facility," Phys. Ess. 37(4): 270-78 (Dec 2024). This peer-reviewed article also describes the cosmological implications of this hadron model and suggests further work to evaluate the model and to understand its implications.
