Primordial black hole sterile neutrinogenesis: sterile neutrino dark matter production independent of couplings [PDF]
Sterile neutrinos (ν s s) are well-motivated and actively searched for hypothetical neutral particles that would mix with the Standard Model active neutrinos. They are considered prime warm dark matter (DM) candidates, typically when their mass is in the

Warm-plus-hot neutrino dark matter [PDF]
We investigate a new hybrid-model universe containing two types of dark matter, one ``warm'' and the other ``hot.'' The hot component is an ordinary light neutrino with mass \ensuremath{\sim}25${\mathit{h}}^{2}$ eV while the warm component is a sterile neutrino with mass \ensuremath{\sim}700${\mathit{h}}^{2}$ eV.

Constraints on dark matter self-interaction from the internal density profiles of X-COP galaxy clusters [PDF]
TThe fundamental properties of the postulated dark matter (DM) affect the internal structure of gravitationally-bound structures. In the cold dark matter paradigm, DM particles interact only via gravity.

Decay of the inflaton or moduli which dominated the energy density of the universe at early times leads to a matter to radiation transition epoch. We consider non-thermal sterile dark matter particles produced as decay product during such transitions ...

Anisotropic cosmic optical background bound for decaying dark matter in light of the LORRI anomaly [PDF]
Recently anomalous flux in the cosmic optical background (COB) is reported by the New Horizon observations. The COB flux is 16 . 37 ± 1 . 47 nWm − 2 sr − 1 , at the LORRI pivot wavelength of 0 . 608 µ m, which is ∼ 4 σ level above the expected flux from the

Shining light on the scotogenic model: interplay of colliders and cosmology
In the framework of the scotogenic model, which features radiative generation of neutrino masses, we explore light dark matter scenario. Throughout the paper we chiefly focus on keV-scale dark matter which can be produced either via freeze-in through the

Beyond freeze-in: Dark matter via inverse phase transition and gravitational wave signal [PDF]
We propose a novel scenario of Dark Matter production naturally connected with generation of gravitational waves. Dark Matter is modelled as a real scalar, which interacts with the hot primordial plasma through a portal coupling to another scalar field ...

The maximum accretion rate of hot gas in dark matter haloes [PDF]
We revisit the question of ‘hot mode’ versus ‘cold mode’ accretion on to galaxies using steady-state cooling flow solutions and idealized 3D hydrodynamic simulations. We demonstrate that for the hot accretion mode to exist, the cooling time is required

Relative distribution of dark matter, gas, and stars around cosmic filaments in the IllustrisTNG simulation [PDF]
We present a comprehensive study of the distribution of matter around di ff erent populations of large-scale cosmic filaments, using the IllustrisTNG simulation at z = 0. We computed the dark matter (DM), gas, and stellar radial density profiles of filaments,

Cosmological N-body simulations with generic hot dark matter [PDF]
We have calculated the non-linear effects of generic fermionic and bosonic hot dark matter components in cosmological N-body simulations. For sub-eV masses, the non-linear power spectrum suppression caused by thermal free-streaming resembles the one seen
