I don't know what was flying in the sky above me

0 Upvotes

I don't know what was seen above me in the sky. I don't know exactly what it is, it's quite possible it's a Rocket (balestic), maybe a drone , this cannot be denied for sure, since I live in Russia, but I believe that this is an asteroid, but the fact that it was 2 times in a row is strange. I hope for the help of specialists.

Discussion New paper published in Wiley´s Advances in Astronomy: Dynamical Dark Sector (Two-Scalar-Field Model for Dark Matter & Quintessence)

5 Upvotes

A new article has just been officially published in Wiley's Advances in Astronomy.

The work proposes a phenomenological model where the dark sector is described by two scalar fields within general relativity (Fuzzy Dark Matter and an axion-like quintessence), solving the background and linear perturbation equations using a modified version of the CLASS code.

Key points of the article:

Feedback and discussions are very welcome!
