Re: Gravitational wave detectors might detect dark matter particles
I don't think so. It could be something much more interesting like a point defect in spacetime.

at the end of the blog, she says she's excited to be working on this, because nobody else has.

Re: Gravitational wave detectors might detect dark matter particles
I think that she may exaggerate a little when she says no one else is working on spacetime defects. There is quite a bit of literature on it from the string theory folks. Ethan Siegel gives a pretty cogent summary here:chasmanian wrote: ↑Mon Sep 16, 2019 1:28 am hey nFA, here's a Dr. H blog from a few years ago.

It has even been speculated that Planck's constant (and so all quantum phenomena) arise from torsional defects in space time:

Now at the risk of being boring, Einstein Cartan Sciama Kibble gravity is a natural arena for torsional defects.
