Description
The problem of dark matter particle search is at the frontier of the modern physics. The scenario of composite dark matter, in which hypothetical, stable, lepton-like particles X having a charge - 2n, where n is any natural number, and forming neutral atom-like states of X-helium with primary helium nuclei, called "dark" atoms, offer a solution to the problem of direct searches for dark matter particles. The solution of the problem is connected with a rigorous proof of the existence of a low-energy bound state in the interaction of a dark atom with a nucleus, which requires a self-consistent description of nuclear attraction and Coulomb repulsion in such an interaction. As part of our approach, we use numerical modeling to describe the dark atom interaction of with nuclei and study the features of such interaction. Considering the classical three-body problem, we consistently add the effects of quantum physics to more accurately describe this interaction.
