Abstract
The importance of the gravitational attraction between fast neutrinos with inertial and gravitational masses in the Planck mass range may not be limited to the formation of hadrons. The myriads of relativistic neutrinos traveling both near and far from galaxies could perhaps also account for some of the observations regarding dark matter and also dark energy.
