Unveiling complex vector dark matter by magnetic field

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

We discuss the possibility that dark matter is made of a new complex massive vector field with a global U(1)U(1)-symmetry. The field interacts with the Standard Model via coupling to the gauge field of the hypercharge group. We study classical homogeneous configurations arising in the theory. Some of these configurations include magnetic components of the Standard Model electromagnetic field tensor. This opens a possibility to relate the origin of possible primordial magnetic fields to the cosmological evolution of vector dark matter condensates composed of magnetic bosons.
