1 Introduction

In recent years many efforts have been made to understandthe nature and the origin of the dark energy and of the darkmatter [1ndash29] which represent almost the 68 and the 27respectively of the matter and energy content of the universe[30ndash34]

Another important field of study is the supersymmetry(SUSY) [35ndash40] Such a symmetry associates any boson toa fermion (called superpartner) with the same mass andinternal quantum numbers and vice versa However up tonow no superpartner has been detected Therefore SUSYmust be a broken symmetry which permits the existenceof superpartners heavier than the corresponding particlesor it must be ruled out as a fundamental symmetry Inparticular intensive study has been devoted to the analysisof the possibility of SUSY breaking

Here we report on recent results [41ndash47] obtained bystudying the condensate structure of the vacuum of manyphenomena such asHawking effect and fields in curved space[48ndash61] In the framework of the standard model of particleswe show that the thermal vacuum of the hot plasma presentat the center of a galaxy cluster the vacuum fluctuations offields in curved space [62] and the flavor neutrino vacuumgive nontrivial contributions to the energy of the universeand have a pressure equal to zero Thus such condensates

in the presence of ordinary matter can aggregate structuresand to represent a component of the dark matter A behaviorcompletely different is the one of the vacuum condensateinduced by the axion-photon mixing Indeed in this case thecondensate has a state equation which coincides with one ofthe cosmological constants and can contribute to the darkenergy of the universe [41 42] Then the condensates canprovide both the effects of the dark part of the universe thatis the dynamical and the gravitational ones

It is worth stressing that the condensate contributionsare different from the usual zero-point energy contributionof fields Indeed they are not originated from radiativecorrections but they derive from the property of QFT ofbeing characterized by infinitely many representations of thecanonical (anti)commutation relations in the infinite volumelimit Values compatible with the estimated ones for darkmatter and dark energy are obtained by using reasonablevalues of the cut-offs on the momenta This result is dueto the drastic decrease in the degree of divergency for highmomenta of integrals describing the energy-momentumtensor of the condensates in comparison with the case ofthe zero-point energy of a free field Indeed the usual zero-point energy contribution goes like 1198704 for high momentaSuch divergence and 1198702 one are removed in the vacuumcondensates [63ndash67]

2 Advances in High Energy Physics

We also consider the framework of the supersymmetryand by using the freeWessndashZuminomodel we show that thepresence of nonvanishing vacuum energy at the Lagrangianlevel implies that SUSY is spontaneously broken by thecondensates [43ndash47]

The structure of the paper is the following in Section 2weintroduce the Bogoliubov transformations in quantum fieldtheory (QFT) and we study the energy-momentum tensordensity for vacuum condensates of boson and fermion fieldsIn Sections 3 and 4 we present the contribution given to theenergy of the universe by thermal states with reference to theHawking and Unruh effects by fields in curved space andby particle mixing phenomena SUSY breaking induced byvacuum condensate is presented in Section 5 and Section 6 isdevoted to the conclusions

2 Bogoliubov Transformation and Energy-Momentum Tensor of Vacuum Condensate

Many phenomena ranging from the BCS theory of super-conductivity [51] to the Casimir and the Schwinger effects[50] are represented in the context of QFT by a Bogoliubovtransformation [55] Such a transformation for bosons isexpressed as 119886k(120585 119905) = 119880퐵k 119886k(119905) minus 119881퐵minusk119886daggerminusk(119905) with 120585 parameterdepending on the phenomenon analyzed 119886k annihilatorsof the vacuum |0⟩ and 119880퐵k 119881퐵k coefficients satisfying theconditions 119880퐵k = 119880퐵minusk 119881퐵k = 119881퐵minusk and |119880퐵k |2 minus |119881퐵k |2 = 1(similar discussion holds for fermions)

Introducing the generator 119869(120585 119905) of the Bogoliubov trans-formation one can write 119886k(120585 119905) = 119869minus1(120585 119905)119886k(119905)119869(120585 119905) Here119869(120585 119905) is a unitary operator 119869minus1(120585) = 119869(minus120585) which allowsrelating the original vacua |0⟩ to the vacua |0(120585 119905)⟩ annihi-lated by 119886k(120585 119905) |0(120585 119905)⟩ = 119869minus1(120585 119905)|0⟩ Such a relation is aunitary operation in quantummechanics where k assumes adiscrete range of values but it is not a unitary transformationin QFT where k assumes a continuous infinity of values Inthis case |0(120585 119905)⟩ and |0⟩ are unitarily inequivalent and theproper physical vacua are |0(120585 119905)⟩ [54 55] Such vacua have acondensate structure which is responsible for an expectationvalue of the number operator119873k = 119886daggerk119886k on |0(120585 119905)⟩ differentfrom zero ⟨0(120585 119905)|119886daggerk119886k|0(120585 119905)⟩ = |119881k|2 This fact impliesa nontrivial result of the expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor density 119879휇](119909) for free fields on |0(120585 119905)⟩Ξ휆휇](119909) =휆 ⟨0(120585 119905)| 119879휆휇](119909) |0(120585 119905)⟩휆 Here sdot sdot sdot denotesthe normal ordering with respect to the original vacuum |0⟩휆Notice that the off-diagonal components of Ξ휆휇](119909) are zeroΞ휆푖푗(119909) = 0 for 119894 = 119895 then the condensates act as a perfectfluid and one can define their energy density and pressureby means of the (0 0) and the (119895 119895) components of Ξ휆휇](119909) as120588휆 = Ξ휆00(119909) and 119901휆 = Ξ휆푗푗(119909) [41 42]

The equations presented above hold for all the systemsdescribed by Bogoliubov transformations in QFT By usingsuch equations and the explicit form of the Bogoliubovcoefficients we analyze the cases of thermal states and offields in curved spaces Then we study the particle mixingphenomenon which at the level of the annihilators isdescribed by a Bogoliubov transformation and a rotationThis fact implies that for particle mixing (1)ndash(6) must bemodified as shown in Section 4

3 Dark Matter Components from ThermalStates Hawking and Unruh Effects andFields in Curved Background

We show that thermal vacuum states and vacuum condensateof fields in curved space can be interpreted as components ofthe dark matter

We start by considering the thermal vacuum state|0(120585(120573))⟩휆 introduced in the framework of ThermofieldDynamics (TFD) (where 120573 equiv 1(119896퐵119879) and 119896퐵 is the Boltz-mann constant and120582 = 119861 119865) [53ndash55] In such a context everydegree of freedom is doubled and the thermal Bogoliubovtransformation allows defining at nonzero temperature thestate |0(120585(120573))⟩휆 such that the thermal statistical average isgiven by 휆⟨0(120585(120573))|119873휒k |0(120585(120573))⟩휆 where 119873휒k = 120594daggerk120594k (120594 = 119886for bosons and 120572 for fermions) is the number operator [54]The Bogoliubov coefficients are 119880푇k = radic119890훽휔k(119890훽휔k plusmn 1) and119881푇k = radic1(119890훽휔k plusmn 1) with minus for bosons and + for fermionsand 120596k = radic1198962 + 1198982 The energy density and pressure of|0(120585(120573))⟩휆 obtained by (1)ndash(6) with 119880k = 119880푇k and 119881k = 119881푇k permit studying many thermal systems

We obtain that for temperatures of order of the cosmicmicrowave radiation (ie 119879 = 272K) only photons and

very light particles contribute to the energy radiation with120588 sim 10minus51 GeV4 and state equations 119908 = 13 whereasnonrelativistic particles give negligible contributions [68]On the other hand the thermal vacuum of the hot plasmafilling the center of galaxy clusters with temperatures (10 divide100) times 106 K can contribute to the dark matter Indeed sucha vacuum has an energy density of (10minus48ndash10minus47)GeV4 and apressure 119901 sim 0 Moreover since the temperatures related toUnruh and Hawking effects are very low their contributionsto the energy of the universe are negligible [68]

The generator of the mixing 119869(120579 119905) allows writing (8) as120593푖(120579 119909) equiv 119869minus1(120579 119905)120593푖(119909)119869(120579 119905) and the mixed annihilationoperators as 120594푟k푖(120579 119905) equiv 119869minus1(120579 119905)120594푟k푖(119905)119869(120579 119905) Here wedenote with 120594푟k푖 the annihilators of bosons 119886k푖 and the

Then we denote with Θ(minus120579 119909) = 119869minus1(minus120579 119905)Θ(119909)119869(minus120579 119905)the operators transformed by 119869(minus120579 119905) Let us now analyzethe contributions induced by the mixing of bosons and offermions

Therefore (13) and (14) reduce to

1198982푖 1206012푖 (minus120579 119909) |0⟩ (16)

and the state equation is the ones of the cosmologicalconstant 119908퐵mix = minus1 Denoting by 119870 the cut-off on themomenta and by setting Δ1198982 = |11989822 minus 11989821| one has

Such an integral solved analytically gives the followingresults

(i) For axion-photon mixing considering magnetic fieldstrength 119861 isin [106ndash1017]G axion mass 119898푎 ≃ 2 times 10minus2 eVsin2푎 120579 sim 10minus2 and a Planck scale cut-off 119870 sim 1019 GeV oneobtains a value of the energy density120588axion

mix = 23times10minus47 GeV4which is of the same order of the estimated upper bound onthe dark energy

(ii) For the mixing of neutrino superpartners assuming1198981 = 10minus3 eV 1198982 = 9 times 10minus3 eV and sin2120579 = 03 one has120588퐵mix = 7 times 10minus47 GeV4 for 119870 = 10 eV For smaller values ofsin2120579 one obtains 120588퐵mix sim 10minus47 GeV4 also in the case inwhich119870 = 1019 GeV [41 42]

(ii) Fermion Mixing The energy density and pressure of thecondensate induced by mixed fermions are

Then the vacuum condensate of fermion mixing behaves asa dark matter component being 119908퐹mix = 0 Explicitly one has

By considering 119898푖 sim 10minus3 eV and 119870 = 1198981 + 1198982 one has120588퐹mix = 4times10minus47 GeV4 For Plank scale cut-off one has 120588퐹mix simtimes10minus46 GeV4

We also note that the condensates of quarks kaons andother mesons should not contribute to the dark matter and tothe dark energy since the quarks confinement inhibits otherinteractions

5 SUSY Breaking and Vacuum Condensate

Up to now we have analyzed condensed systems in thecontext of the standard model Let us now extend ourformalism to a supersymmetric frameworkWe show that thevacuum condensate provides a new mechanism of sponta-neous SUSY breaking To do that we consider a system inwhich SUSY is preserved at the Lagrangian level Then inorder not to break SUSY explicitly we consider a Bogoliubovtransformation which acts simultaneously and with the sameparameters on boson and on fermion operators Such atransformation leads to a vacuum condensate with nonzeroenergy In general a nonzero vacuum energy implies thespontaneous SUSY breaking in any field theory which hasmanifest supersymmetry at the Lagrangian level [37] Hencethe nontrivial energy of vacuum condensate breaks SUSYspontaneously

We consider the WessndashZumino Lagrangian which isinvariant under supersymmetry transformations [71]

6 Conclusions

We have shown that in the framework of the standardmodel of the particles the vacuum condensates of manysystems can contribute to the energy of the universe Inparticular dark matter components can derive by thermalvacuum of intercluster medium by the vacuum of fields incurved space and by the neutrino flavor vacuum On theother hand the condensate induced by axion-photon mixingcan contribute to the dark energy We have also studied asupersymmetric field theory In this framework consideringthe WessndashZumino model we have shown that vacuumcondensates may lead to spontaneous SUSY breaking

We also consider the framework of the supersymmetryand by using the freeWessndashZuminomodel we show that thepresence of nonvanishing vacuum energy at the Lagrangianlevel implies that SUSY is spontaneously broken by thecondensates [43ndash47]

The structure of the paper is the following in Section 2weintroduce the Bogoliubov transformations in quantum fieldtheory (QFT) and we study the energy-momentum tensordensity for vacuum condensates of boson and fermion fieldsIn Sections 3 and 4 we present the contribution given to theenergy of the universe by thermal states with reference to theHawking and Unruh effects by fields in curved space andby particle mixing phenomena SUSY breaking induced byvacuum condensate is presented in Section 5 and Section 6 isdevoted to the conclusions

2 Bogoliubov Transformation and Energy-Momentum Tensor of Vacuum Condensate

Many phenomena ranging from the BCS theory of super-conductivity [51] to the Casimir and the Schwinger effects[50] are represented in the context of QFT by a Bogoliubovtransformation [55] Such a transformation for bosons isexpressed as 119886k(120585 119905) = 119880퐵k 119886k(119905) minus 119881퐵minusk119886daggerminusk(119905) with 120585 parameterdepending on the phenomenon analyzed 119886k annihilatorsof the vacuum |0⟩ and 119880퐵k 119881퐵k coefficients satisfying theconditions 119880퐵k = 119880퐵minusk 119881퐵k = 119881퐵minusk and |119880퐵k |2 minus |119881퐵k |2 = 1(similar discussion holds for fermions)

Introducing the generator 119869(120585 119905) of the Bogoliubov trans-formation one can write 119886k(120585 119905) = 119869minus1(120585 119905)119886k(119905)119869(120585 119905) Here119869(120585 119905) is a unitary operator 119869minus1(120585) = 119869(minus120585) which allowsrelating the original vacua |0⟩ to the vacua |0(120585 119905)⟩ annihi-lated by 119886k(120585 119905) |0(120585 119905)⟩ = 119869minus1(120585 119905)|0⟩ Such a relation is aunitary operation in quantummechanics where k assumes adiscrete range of values but it is not a unitary transformationin QFT where k assumes a continuous infinity of values Inthis case |0(120585 119905)⟩ and |0⟩ are unitarily inequivalent and theproper physical vacua are |0(120585 119905)⟩ [54 55] Such vacua have acondensate structure which is responsible for an expectationvalue of the number operator119873k = 119886daggerk119886k on |0(120585 119905)⟩ differentfrom zero ⟨0(120585 119905)|119886daggerk119886k|0(120585 119905)⟩ = |119881k|2 This fact impliesa nontrivial result of the expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor density 119879휇](119909) for free fields on |0(120585 119905)⟩Ξ휆휇](119909) =휆 ⟨0(120585 119905)| 119879휆휇](119909) |0(120585 119905)⟩휆 Here sdot sdot sdot denotesthe normal ordering with respect to the original vacuum |0⟩휆Notice that the off-diagonal components of Ξ휆휇](119909) are zeroΞ휆푖푗(119909) = 0 for 119894 = 119895 then the condensates act as a perfectfluid and one can define their energy density and pressureby means of the (0 0) and the (119895 119895) components of Ξ휆휇](119909) as120588휆 = Ξ휆00(119909) and 119901휆 = Ξ휆푗푗(119909) [41 42]

The equations presented above hold for all the systemsdescribed by Bogoliubov transformations in QFT By usingsuch equations and the explicit form of the Bogoliubovcoefficients we analyze the cases of thermal states and offields in curved spaces Then we study the particle mixingphenomenon which at the level of the annihilators isdescribed by a Bogoliubov transformation and a rotationThis fact implies that for particle mixing (1)ndash(6) must bemodified as shown in Section 4

3 Dark Matter Components from ThermalStates Hawking and Unruh Effects andFields in Curved Background

We show that thermal vacuum states and vacuum condensateof fields in curved space can be interpreted as components ofthe dark matter

We start by considering the thermal vacuum state|0(120585(120573))⟩휆 introduced in the framework of ThermofieldDynamics (TFD) (where 120573 equiv 1(119896퐵119879) and 119896퐵 is the Boltz-mann constant and120582 = 119861 119865) [53ndash55] In such a context everydegree of freedom is doubled and the thermal Bogoliubovtransformation allows defining at nonzero temperature thestate |0(120585(120573))⟩휆 such that the thermal statistical average isgiven by 휆⟨0(120585(120573))|119873휒k |0(120585(120573))⟩휆 where 119873휒k = 120594daggerk120594k (120594 = 119886for bosons and 120572 for fermions) is the number operator [54]The Bogoliubov coefficients are 119880푇k = radic119890훽휔k(119890훽휔k plusmn 1) and119881푇k = radic1(119890훽휔k plusmn 1) with minus for bosons and + for fermionsand 120596k = radic1198962 + 1198982 The energy density and pressure of|0(120585(120573))⟩휆 obtained by (1)ndash(6) with 119880k = 119880푇k and 119881k = 119881푇k permit studying many thermal systems

We obtain that for temperatures of order of the cosmicmicrowave radiation (ie 119879 = 272K) only photons and

very light particles contribute to the energy radiation with120588 sim 10minus51 GeV4 and state equations 119908 = 13 whereasnonrelativistic particles give negligible contributions [68]On the other hand the thermal vacuum of the hot plasmafilling the center of galaxy clusters with temperatures (10 divide100) times 106 K can contribute to the dark matter Indeed sucha vacuum has an energy density of (10minus48ndash10minus47)GeV4 and apressure 119901 sim 0 Moreover since the temperatures related toUnruh and Hawking effects are very low their contributionsto the energy of the universe are negligible [68]

Let us now consider fields in curved background In sucha case the Bogoliubov coefficients depend on the metricanalyzed [58] Here we study boson fields in spatially flatFriedmann Robertson-Walker metric 1198891199042 = 1198891199052 minus1198862(119905)119889x2 =1198862(120578)(1198891205782 minus 119889x2) where 119905 is the comoving time 119886 is the scalefactor and 120578(119905) = int푡

We now compute the contributions to the energy given bythe vacuum of mixed fields The particle mixing concernsfermions as neutrinos and quarks and bosons as axionskaons 1198610 1198630 and 120578-120578耠 systems The mixing of two fields isexpressed as

1205931 (120579 119909) = 1205931 (119909) cos (120579) + 1205932 (119909) sin (120579) 1205932 (120579 119909) = minus1205931 (119909) sin (120579) + 1205932 (119909) cos (120579) (8)

where 120579 is the mixing angle 120593푖(119909) are free fields and 120593푖(120579 119909)are mixed fields with 119894 = 1 2

The generator of the mixing 119869(120579 119905) allows writing (8) as120593푖(120579 119909) equiv 119869minus1(120579 119905)120593푖(119909)119869(120579 119905) and the mixed annihilationoperators as 120594푟k푖(120579 119905) equiv 119869minus1(120579 119905)120594푟k푖(119905)119869(120579 119905) Here wedenote with 120594푟k푖 the annihilators of bosons 119886k푖 and the

ones of fermions 120572푟k푖 [59 60] One can see that the mixingtransformation at the level of annihilators is a rotation plusa Bogoliubov transformation [59 60] Then the physicalvacuum |0(120579 119905)⟩ equiv 119869minus1(120579 119905)|0⟩12 (where |0⟩12 is the vacuumannihilated by 120594푟k푖) generates a condensation density givenby

respectively where Ω푘푖 are the energies of the free fields 119894 =1 2 The other coefficients of the transformations are Σ퐵k =radic1 + |Υ퐵k |2 and Σ퐹k = radic1 minus |Υ퐹k |2

In the following we use the relation 119869minus1(120579 119905) = 119869dagger(120579 119905) =119869(minus120579 119905) to write휆⟨0 (120579 119905)| 119879휆휇] (119909) |0 (120579 119905)⟩휆 =

Then we denote with Θ(minus120579 119909) = 119869minus1(minus120579 119905)Θ(119909)119869(minus120579 119905)the operators transformed by 119869(minus120579 119905) Let us now analyzethe contributions induced by the mixing of bosons and offermions

Such an integral solved analytically gives the followingresults

We also note that the condensates of quarks kaons andother mesons should not contribute to the dark matter and tothe dark energy since the quarks confinement inhibits otherinteractions

5 SUSY Breaking and Vacuum Condensate

Up to now we have analyzed condensed systems in thecontext of the standard model Let us now extend ourformalism to a supersymmetric frameworkWe show that thevacuum condensate provides a new mechanism of sponta-neous SUSY breaking To do that we consider a system inwhich SUSY is preserved at the Lagrangian level Then inorder not to break SUSY explicitly we consider a Bogoliubovtransformation which acts simultaneously and with the sameparameters on boson and on fermion operators Such atransformation leads to a vacuum condensate with nonzeroenergy In general a nonzero vacuum energy implies thespontaneous SUSY breaking in any field theory which hasmanifest supersymmetry at the Lagrangian level [37] Hencethe nontrivial energy of vacuum condensate breaks SUSYspontaneously

We consider the WessndashZumino Lagrangian which isinvariant under supersymmetry transformations [71]

6 Conclusions

We have shown that in the framework of the standardmodel of the particles the vacuum condensates of manysystems can contribute to the energy of the universe Inparticular dark matter components can derive by thermalvacuum of intercluster medium by the vacuum of fields incurved space and by the neutrino flavor vacuum On theother hand the condensate induced by axion-photon mixingcan contribute to the dark energy We have also studied asupersymmetric field theory In this framework consideringthe WessndashZumino model we have shown that vacuumcondensates may lead to spontaneous SUSY breaking

very light particles contribute to the energy radiation with120588 sim 10minus51 GeV4 and state equations 119908 = 13 whereasnonrelativistic particles give negligible contributions [68]On the other hand the thermal vacuum of the hot plasmafilling the center of galaxy clusters with temperatures (10 divide100) times 106 K can contribute to the dark matter Indeed sucha vacuum has an energy density of (10minus48ndash10minus47)GeV4 and apressure 119901 sim 0 Moreover since the temperatures related toUnruh and Hawking effects are very low their contributionsto the energy of the universe are negligible [68]

4 Dark Matter Component from NeutrinoMixing and Dark Energy Contribution fromMixed Bosons

We now compute the contributions to the energy given bythe vacuum of mixed fields The particle mixing concernsfermions as neutrinos and quarks and bosons as axionskaons 1198610 1198630 and 120578-120578耠 systems The mixing of two fields isexpressed as

1205931 (120579 119909) = 1205931 (119909) cos (120579) + 1205932 (119909) sin (120579) 1205932 (120579 119909) = minus1205931 (119909) sin (120579) + 1205932 (119909) cos (120579) (8)

where 120579 is the mixing angle 120593푖(119909) are free fields and 120593푖(120579 119909)are mixed fields with 119894 = 1 2

The generator of the mixing 119869(120579 119905) allows writing (8) as120593푖(120579 119909) equiv 119869minus1(120579 119905)120593푖(119909)119869(120579 119905) and the mixed annihilationoperators as 120594푟k푖(120579 119905) equiv 119869minus1(120579 119905)120594푟k푖(119905)119869(120579 119905) Here wedenote with 120594푟k푖 the annihilators of bosons 119886k푖 and the

ones of fermions 120572푟k푖 [59 60] One can see that the mixingtransformation at the level of annihilators is a rotation plusa Bogoliubov transformation [59 60] Then the physicalvacuum |0(120579 119905)⟩ equiv 119869minus1(120579 119905)|0⟩12 (where |0⟩12 is the vacuumannihilated by 120594푟k푖) generates a condensation density givenby

where 120582 = 119861 119865 The Bogoliubov coefficient Υ휆k appearing inthe condensates assumes the following form for bosons andfermions

respectively where Ω푘푖 are the energies of the free fields 119894 =1 2 The other coefficients of the transformations are Σ퐵k =radic1 + |Υ퐵k |2 and Σ퐹k = radic1 minus |Υ퐹k |2

In the following we use the relation 119869minus1(120579 119905) = 119869dagger(120579 119905) =119869(minus120579 119905) to write휆⟨0 (120579 119905)| 119879휆휇] (119909) |0 (120579 119905)⟩휆 =

Then we denote with Θ(minus120579 119909) = 119869minus1(minus120579 119905)Θ(119909)119869(minus120579 119905)the operators transformed by 119869(minus120579 119905) Let us now analyzethe contributions induced by the mixing of bosons and offermions

Therefore (13) and (14) reduce to

and the state equation is the ones of the cosmologicalconstant 119908퐵mix = minus1 Denoting by 119870 the cut-off on themomenta and by setting Δ1198982 = |11989822 minus 11989821| one has

Such an integral solved analytically gives the followingresults

(ii) For the mixing of neutrino superpartners assuming1198981 = 10minus3 eV 1198982 = 9 times 10minus3 eV and sin2120579 = 03 one has120588퐵mix = 7 times 10minus47 GeV4 for 119870 = 10 eV For smaller values ofsin2120579 one obtains 120588퐵mix sim 10minus47 GeV4 also in the case inwhich119870 = 1019 GeV [41 42]

We also note that the condensates of quarks kaons andother mesons should not contribute to the dark matter and tothe dark energy since the quarks confinement inhibits otherinteractions

5 SUSY Breaking and Vacuum Condensate

Up to now we have analyzed condensed systems in thecontext of the standard model Let us now extend ourformalism to a supersymmetric frameworkWe show that thevacuum condensate provides a new mechanism of sponta-neous SUSY breaking To do that we consider a system inwhich SUSY is preserved at the Lagrangian level Then inorder not to break SUSY explicitly we consider a Bogoliubovtransformation which acts simultaneously and with the sameparameters on boson and on fermion operators Such atransformation leads to a vacuum condensate with nonzeroenergy In general a nonzero vacuum energy implies thespontaneous SUSY breaking in any field theory which hasmanifest supersymmetry at the Lagrangian level [37] Hencethe nontrivial energy of vacuum condensate breaks SUSYspontaneously

We consider the WessndashZumino Lagrangian which isinvariant under supersymmetry transformations [71]

6 Conclusions

We have shown that in the framework of the standardmodel of the particles the vacuum condensates of manysystems can contribute to the energy of the universe Inparticular dark matter components can derive by thermalvacuum of intercluster medium by the vacuum of fields incurved space and by the neutrino flavor vacuum On theother hand the condensate induced by axion-photon mixingcan contribute to the dark energy We have also studied asupersymmetric field theory In this framework consideringthe WessndashZumino model we have shown that vacuumcondensates may lead to spontaneous SUSY breaking

Such an integral solved analytically gives the followingresults

We also note that the condensates of quarks kaons andother mesons should not contribute to the dark matter and tothe dark energy since the quarks confinement inhibits otherinteractions

5 SUSY Breaking and Vacuum Condensate

Up to now we have analyzed condensed systems in thecontext of the standard model Let us now extend ourformalism to a supersymmetric frameworkWe show that thevacuum condensate provides a new mechanism of sponta-neous SUSY breaking To do that we consider a system inwhich SUSY is preserved at the Lagrangian level Then inorder not to break SUSY explicitly we consider a Bogoliubovtransformation which acts simultaneously and with the sameparameters on boson and on fermion operators Such atransformation leads to a vacuum condensate with nonzeroenergy In general a nonzero vacuum energy implies thespontaneous SUSY breaking in any field theory which hasmanifest supersymmetry at the Lagrangian level [37] Hencethe nontrivial energy of vacuum condensate breaks SUSYspontaneously

We consider the WessndashZumino Lagrangian which isinvariant under supersymmetry transformations [71]

6 Conclusions

We have shown that in the framework of the standardmodel of the particles the vacuum condensates of manysystems can contribute to the energy of the universe Inparticular dark matter components can derive by thermalvacuum of intercluster medium by the vacuum of fields incurved space and by the neutrino flavor vacuum On theother hand the condensate induced by axion-photon mixingcan contribute to the dark energy We have also studied asupersymmetric field theory In this framework consideringthe WessndashZumino model we have shown that vacuumcondensates may lead to spontaneous SUSY breaking

6 Conclusions

We have shown that in the framework of the standardmodel of the particles the vacuum condensates of manysystems can contribute to the energy of the universe Inparticular dark matter components can derive by thermalvacuum of intercluster medium by the vacuum of fields incurved space and by the neutrino flavor vacuum On theother hand the condensate induced by axion-photon mixingcan contribute to the dark energy We have also studied asupersymmetric field theory In this framework consideringthe WessndashZumino model we have shown that vacuumcondensates may lead to spontaneous SUSY breaking
