“…The underlying particle model, called the νMSM, is described in detail in a number of papers (Asaka et al , 2007Shaposhnikov & Tkachev 2006;Shaposhnikov 2008;Gorbunov & Shaposhnikov 2007;Laine & Shaposhnikov 2008;Canetti et al 2013a), and recent reviews (Boyarsky et al 2009b;Kusenko 2009;Drewes 2013). Additionally, the sterile neutrino may have interesting effects on a range of astrophysical objects, for example as an explanation for pulsar kick velocities, facilitating core collapse supernova explosions, affecting early star formation, reionization and structure formation, or assisting inflation (Kusenko & Segrè 1997;Kusenko et al 2008;Hansen & Haiman 2004;Fryer & Kusenko 2006;Hidaka & Fuller 2006;Biermann & Kusenko 2006;Mapelli et al 2006;Shaposhnikov & Tkachev 2006;Bezrukov & Shaposhnikov 2008;Petraki & Kusenko 2008;Petraki 2008;Boyanovsky 2008;Gorbunov et al 2008). The lightest of the three sterile neutrinos provides an attractive dark matter candidate.…”
