Mirror (shadow) particles are required to restore symmetry between left- and right-handed coordinate systems. If mirror world exists, it has been born at the same time as the ordinary world and has the same evolution (in the case of the shadow world - broken mirror symmetry, the evolution and structure of the shadow world does not correspond with the observed world). Mirror world is a kind of dark matter. According to Bahcall (1984) local dark matter has a density approximately equal to the density of observed (ordinary) matter.
