LABORATORI NAZIONALI DEL GRAN SASSO
Merger rates of binaries observed by LIGO/VIRGO gravitational wave detectors exceed numbers predicted by majority of models, also none of the events except one was accompanied by another type of radiation. We suggest that major LIGO/VIRGO signals emerged from the hidden mirror sector. In the Mirror World scenario: (i) Number of binary systems is higher, since mirror matter is a candidate of dark matter with higher density; (ii) Binary merger rate is amplified, since mirror world is considered to be colder and star formation there started earlier; (iii) Non-detection of electromagnetic radiation is natural, because mirror particles do not interact with ordinary particles. --- Merab Gogberashvili Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University & Andronikashvili Institute of Physics Tbilisi, Georgia
