We search for indirect signals of $\mathscr{O}$(keV) dark matter annihilating or decaying into $\mathscr{O}$(eV) dark photons. These dark photons will be highly boosted and have decay lengths larger than the Milky Way, and can be absorbed…

We perform a comprehensive study of the Direct Detection phenomenology of singlet Dark Matter $t$-channel portal models. For that purpose, we present a complete one-loop matching onto a Heavy Dark-Matter Effective Field Theory, leading to a…

We consider a feeble repulsive interaction between ordinary matter and dark matter, with a range similar to or larger than the size of the Earth. Dark matter can thus be repelled from the Earth, leading to null results in direct detection…

Instead of the energy recoil signal at direct detection experiments, dark fermion appears as missing energy at hadron colliders. For a fermionc dark sector particle that coupled with quarks and neutrino via absorption operators, its…

Indirect searches for dark matter (DM) have conventionally been applied to the products of DM annihilation or decay. If DM couples to light force carriers, however, it can be captured into bound states via dissipation of energy that may…
