Description
The discovery of dunkle Materie (DM) by ZWICKY came from unexpected cosmological
observations. Similarly, the last ~160 years a number of unexpected energetic observations could be
the manifestation of the dark Universe. We refer to this class of particle candidates as “invisible” to
distinguish them from the already excluded parameter phase space of WIMPs and axions. In this
work we stress a simple feature as the common signature of such observations within the solar
system. Namely, the widely discussed dark sector constituents with velocity of ~1‰ c (c=velocity of
light). As pointed out since 20 years, streams of constituents with such velocities can be gravitationally
focused or deflected by any solar system body to others. The aforementioned energetic observations
include the unpredictable flaring Sun, its irradiance, its size variation, its elemental composition, etc,
but also terrestrial phenomena including the dynamic atmosphere and other highly crossdisciplinary
observations like the not randomly appearing Earthquakes. All observations follow otherwise
unexpected planetary relationships. More results may come out until this conference following more
out-of-the-box thinking including exo-solar planetary systems. To conclude, a planetary relationship
is a key signature pointing on its own at exo-solar origin. Also for Earthquakes, the only viable
explanation is thanks to planetary gravitational focusing of streaming invisible matter, which is
tentatively identified with constituents from the dark Universe, interacting with large cross section
with ordinary matter. Implications in (ongoing) DM experiments will be discussed. The mostly inspiring
particle constituents fitting-in a number of observations are AntiQuarkNuggets, magnetic monopoles
and dark photons. Though, more emerging candidates like the pearls (see work by Holger Nielsen)
are encouraged to investigate whether they fit-in, and, how to identify their possible involvement by
triggering energetic phenomena; so far, the solar radius variation is the most energetic observation.
