"In a new breakthrough, scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermilab have found a way to detect dark matter using quantum computers." (ScitechDaily.com/U.S. Dept of Energy Breakthrough: Detecting Dark Matter With Quantum Computers)
1) How do quantum computers detect dark matter?
The idea of quantum computers is that they use very highly controlled superpositioned and entangled photonic qubits. The idea is that the system pack information photons. And then that photon will be superpositioned and entangled. If that superpositioned and entangled photon touches something.
That "something" causes a disturbance in the energy level of that superpositioned and entangled particle pair. So if the superpositioned and entangled qubit touches the dark matter. That thing causes disturbance of the energy levels.
2) What the dark matter could be?
Dark matter is interesting. 85% of the material in the universe is formed of dark matter. That is the gravitational effect whose source is unknown. The thing that makes the dark matter interesting. Is that it can interact with visible material only by gravitation. There are galaxies there is no dark matter. And that tells that it can form similar clouds as visible material. But what is dark matter?
There are a couple of theories about that thing.
*Is dark matter a so-called black photon?
The idea of black photons comes from the idea that the Schwinger effect that formed all matter during the Big Bang forms two particles. Schwinger effect forms particle-antiparticle pair. So the photon should also have anti-particle pair. That "anti-photon" should be a so-called "black photon".
*Dark matter is virtual material.
The term "virtual material" means that dark matter could be some hollow quantum field. That quantum field can be a 2-dimensional energy ring that causes forming of a virtual black hole in that ring-shaped structure. That thing explains why it's so hard to detect.
There is a possibility that also hyper energy photons or some unknown very heavy but small particles are forming that mysterious dark matter. That particle could be like Higgs Boson. But it could exist only small moment. And when that particle vaporizes, it forms the thing called dark energy.
So in this model dark energy and dark matter have the same source. But where that hypothetical vaporization happens? Does it happen in the plasma of the universe or outside the plasma bubble that is called the universe?
*Dark matter is extremely high and low energy particles.
The idea is that dark matter can be so high-energy level particles that they are pushing all radiation away from them. That makes those particles act like stealth aircraft. When wave motion travels or flows over them that causes the situation that there is no reflection from that matter.
In the low energy model, the dark matter is simple flat material. The energy level of that material is so low that it cannot react.
*Dark matter is quantum-size black holes.
There is the possibility that dark matter is quantum-size black holes or mysterious graviton particles. If that model is true that explains why we cannot see that particle. In that model, the whisk-looking structure of elementary particles would form at the surface of the magnetic field of that extremely small particle. So the quantum-size black hole hovers in the middle of the quark.
