Strong gravitational lensing probes of the particle nature of dark matter

, 2009
There is a vast menagerie of plausible candidates for the constituents of dark matter, both within and beyond extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. Each of these candidates may have scattering (and other) cross section properties that are consistent with the dark matter abundance, BBN, and the most scales in the matter power spectrum ...

Revisiting the fermionic dark matter absorption on electron target

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We perform a systematic study of the fermionic DM absorption interactions on electron target in the context of effective field theory. The fermionic DM absorption is not just sensitive to sub-MeV DM with efficient energy release, but also gives a unique ...

Fermionic dark matter in Dynamical Scotogenic Model

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
In the Dynamical Scotogenic Model, the global B − L symmetry is supposed to be broken spontaneously resulting in a massless Goldstone boson called majoron, and massive right handed neutrinos which participate in the generation of light neutrino massses ...

The Migdal effect in semiconductors for dark matter with masses below ∼ 100 MeV

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
Dark matter scattering off a nucleus has a small probability of inducing an observable ionization through the inelastic excitation of an electron, called the Migdal effect.

A next-generation liquid xenon observatory for dark matter and neutrino physics

, 2023
The nature of dark matter and properties of neutrinos are among the most pressing issues in contemporary particle physics. The dual-phase xenon time-projection chamber is the leading technology to cover the available parameter space for weakly ...

SIMPly add a dark photon

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
Pions of a dark sector gauge group can be strongly interacting massive particle (SIMP) dark matter, produced by the freeze-out of 3 → 2 interactions, with naturally large self-interactions. We study if adding a dark photon to the set-up can do it all: i)

DarkSUSY - A numerical package for dark matter calculations in the MSSM

, 2001
The question of the nature of the dark matter in the Universe remains one of the most outstanding unsolved problems in basic science. One of the best motivated particle physics candidates is the lightest supersymmetric particle, assumed to be the ...

Search for Milli-Charged particles from the Sun at IceCube

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
It is assumed that heavy dark matter particles ϕ with O(TeV) mass captured by the Sun may decay to relativistic light milli-charged particles (MCPs). These MCPs could be measured by the IceCube detector.

Light in the shadows: primordial black holes making dark matter shine

Journal of High Energy Physics
We consider the possibility of indirect detection of dark sector processes by investigating a novel form of interaction between ambient dark matter (DM) and primordial black holes (PBHs). The basic scenario we envisage is that the ambient DM is “dormant”,
