Dark matter that was once in thermal equilibrium with the Standard Model is generally prohibited from obtaining all of its mass from the electroweak phase transition. This implies a new scale of physics and mediator particles to facilitate…
Anomalous couplings of the Higgs boson are searched for through the processes e^+ e^- -> H gamma, e^+ e^- -> e^+ e^- H and e^+ e^- -> HZ. The mass range 70 GeV < m_H < 190 GeV is explored using 602 pb^-1 of integrated luminosity collected…
We have performed the underground dark matter search experiment with a sodium fl uoride (NaF) bolometer array from 2002 through 2003 at Kamioka Observatory (2700 m.w.e.). The bolometer array consists of eight NaF absorbers with a total mass…
We consider a simple class of models in which the dark matter, X, is coupled to a new gauge boson, phi, with a relatively low mass (m_phi \sim 100 MeV-3 GeV). Neither the dark matter nor the new gauge boson have tree-level couplings to the…

In the year 2000 the four LEP experiments collected data at centre-of-mass energies between 200 and 209 GeV, integrating approximately 870 pb-1 of luminosity, with about 510 pb-1 above 206 GeV. The LEP working group for Higgs boson searches…

Assuming a dark matter fraction $\Omega_{DM} = 0.27$ and a reduced Hubble constant $h = 0.73$, we obtain a value of 70 GeV/c$^2$ for the mass of the dark matter WIMP we have previously proposed. We also obtain a value for the annihilation…
Current mass limits for fourth generation sequential neutrinos come from dark matter experiments assuming $\rho_{DM}=0.2-0.8$ g/ cm$^3$. We show that the latest results from the CDMS II experiment exclude Dirac neutrinos with masses below…
