Title:Dark Matter as a consequence of electric charge non-conservation - will it remain dark forever?

Abstract:It is conjectured that dark matter (DM) was produced before inflation from neutral particles present after the Big Bang and survived inflation due to a specific coupling with gravitation, while the charged particles existing after the Big Bang disappeared during inflation in a process of charge non-conservation. Ordinary matter was produced at a later stage at a lower temperature following a symmetry restoring phase transition. In this way the non-luminous character of dark matter and the existence of two types of matter, ordinary and dark, get a natural explanation. Because of the high temperatures preceding inflation, the masses of particles produced during that time are too large to be detected by conventional particle physics methods and possibly will never be detected.
