The solar neutrino problem can be interpreted as a signature for the existence and properties of certain dark matter candidate particles (cosmions). The breaking of convection by neutrino-like cosmion was investigated in horizontal branch (HB) stars. These particles may affect globular clusters in the inner galaxy or in dwarf spheroidals where the dark matter density is larger than in the solar neighborhood, leading to an observable reduction of the HB lifetime.
