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 …

[HTML][HTML] Simplified models vs. effective field theory approaches in dark matter searches

A De Simone, T Jacques - The European Physical Journal C, 2016 - Springer
In this review we discuss and compare the usage of simplified models and Effective Field
Theory (EFT) approaches in dark matter searches. We provide a state of the art description …

Inelastic dark matter at the LHC lifetime frontier: ATLAS, CMS, LHCb, CODEX-b, FASER, and MATHUSLA

A Berlin, F Kling - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
Visible signals from the decays of light long-lived hidden sector particles have been
extensively searched for at beam dump, fixed-target, and collider experiments. If such …

Axion-like particle (ALP) portal freeze-in dark matter confronting ALP search experiments

DK Ghosh, A Ghoshal, S Jeesun - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract The relic density of Dark Matter (DM) in the freeze-in scenario is highly dependent
on the evolution history of the universe and changes significantly in a non-standard (NS) …

Comprehensive exploration of -channel simplified models of dark matter

C Arina, B Fuks, J Heisig, M Krämer, L Mantani… - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We analyze six classes of t-channel dark matter simplified models in which the Standard
Model field content is extended by a colored mediator and a dark matter state. The two new …

TeV-scale thermal WIMPs: unitarity and its consequences

J Smirnov, JF Beacom - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
We reexamine unitarity bounds on the annihilation cross section of thermal weakly
interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter. For high-mass pointlike dark matter, it is …

PeV-scale dark matter as a thermal relic of a decoupled sector

A Berlin, D Hooper, G Krnjaic - Physics Letters B, 2016 - Elsevier
In this letter, we consider a class of scenarios in which the dark matter is part of a heavy
hidden sector that is thermally decoupled from the Standard Model in the early universe. The …

boson mass shift, dark matter, and in a scotogenic-Zee model

R Dcruz, A Thapa - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We present a singly charged scalar extension of the scotogenic model, the scotogenic-Zee
model, which resolves the recently reported deviations in the W boson mass as well as …

The coannihilation codex

MJ Baker, J Brod, S El Hedri, A Kaminska… - Journal of High Energy …, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We present a general classification of simplified models that lead to dark matter
(DM) coannihilation processes of the form DM+ X→ SM 1+ SM 2, where X is a coannihilation …

QCD effects on direct detection of wino dark matter

J Hisano, K Ishiwata, N Nagata - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We complete the calculation of the wino-nucleon scattering cross section up to the
next-to-leading order in α s. We assume that the other sparticles are decoupled and wino …
