We seek to explain both the seeming observation of dark matter by the seasonal variation of the DAMA-LIBRA data and the observation of "electron recoil" events at Xenon1T in which the liquid Xe scintillator was excited by electrons - in…
We study the 3.55 keV X-ray suspected to arise from dark matter in our model of dark matter consisting of a bubble of a new phase of the vacuum, the surface tension of which keeps ordinary matter under high pressure inside the bubble. We…
We have worked for some time on a model for dark matter, in which dark matter consists of small bubbles of a new speculated type of vacuum, which are pumped up by some ordinary matter such as diamond, so as to resist the pressure of the…
Through several articles we have developed a model for dark matter as consisting of bubbles of a new (speculated) type of vacuum, starting from cm-sized pearls or balls down to atomic size ones and now we believe they have nanometer sizes.…
We briefly review and update our earlier published model for dark matter consisting of nanometer size bubbles of a new speculated vacuum phase in which some ordinary material, e.g. carbon, is present under high pressure caused by the…
We look at our since long studied model for dark matter as being pearls of a speculated new vacuum containing highly compressed ordinary matter, with so much ordinary in it that the content of ordinary matter in the dark matter pearls…
We propose a self-interacting inelastic dark matter (DM) scenario as a possible origin of the recently reported excess of electron recoil events by the XENON1T experiment. Two quasi-degenerate Majorana fermion DM interact within themselves…
In the leading paradigm of modern cosmology, about 80% of our Universe's matter content is in the form of hypothetical, as yet undetected particles. These do not emit or absorb radiation at any observable wavelengths, and therefore…
We present a self-interacting boosted dark matter (DM) scenario as a possible explanation of the recently reported excess of electron recoil events by the XENON1T experiment. The Standard Model (SM) has been extended with two vector-like…
Very recently, the Xenon1T collaboration has reported an intriguing electron recoil excess, which may imply for light dark matter. In order to interpret this anomaly, we propose the atmospheric dark matter (ADM) from the inelastic collision…
Dark matter might be in the form of a dark plasma in the Milky Way halo. Specifically, we consider here a hidden sector consisting of a light `dark electron' and a much heavier `dark proton', each charged under an unbroken $U(1)'$ gauge…
We point out that a non-relativistic $\sim 2 $ GeV dark matter (DM) which interacts with visible matter through higher dimensional Rayleigh operators could explain the excess of "electron recoil" events recently observed by the Xenon1T…
While, to ensure successful cosmology, dark matter (DM) must kinematically decouple from the standard model plasma very early in the history of the Universe, it can remain coupled to a bath of "dark radiation" until a relatively late epoch.…
Our earlier put forward model of dark matter, consisting of cm-size pearls with ordinary matter inside under high pressure and with a mass of order $1.4 *10^8$ kg, is used to explain the mysterious 3.5 keV X-ray line from the galactic…
Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) is a simple and well-motivated scenario that could explain long-standing puzzles in structure formation on small scales. If the required self-interaction arises through a light mediator (with mass $\sim…
We reinterpret the results of the direct searches for dark matter in terms of milli-interacting dark particles. The model reproduces the positive results from DAMA/LIBRA and CoGeNT and is consistent with the absence of signal in the…
The eXciting Dark Matter (XDM) model was proposed as a mechanism to efficiently convert the kinetic energy (in sufficiently hot environments) of dark matter into e+e- pairs. The standard scenario invokes a doublet of nearly degenerate DM…
We propose an attractive model that excess of electron recoil events around 1-5 keV reported by the XENON1T collaboration nicely links to the tiny neutrino masses based on a radiative seesaw scenario. Our dark matter(DM) is an isospin…
We consider a self-interacting dark matter model in which the massive dark photon mediating the self-interaction decays to light dark fermions to avoid over-closing the universe. We find that if the model is constrained to explain the dark…
Dark matter in spiral galaxies like the Milky Way may take the form of a dark plasma. Hidden sector dark matter charged under an unbroken $U(1)'$ gauge interaction provides a simple and well defined particle physics model realising this…
