We consider Kerr black holes (BHs) surrounded by perfect dark fluid matter (PFDM), with an additional parameter ($k$) because of PFDM, apart from mass ($M$) and rotation parameter ($a$) -- the rotating PFDM BHs. We analyze the photon orbits…

It has been postulated that Fuzzy Dark Matter (FDM) could be a viable alternative to Cold Dark Matter (CDM). FDM is comprised of ultralight bosons which exist as a Bose-Einstein condensate. Due to the very low mass of FDM, the de Broglie…

We show that in the scenario where dark matter (DM) particles annihilate through light mediators, the energy spectra of the final state cosmic-ray particles depend strongly on the mediator mass. For final state antiprotons, a spectrum with…

In this paper, we study freeze-in production of fermionic dark matter with a pseudo scalar as the mediator between dark sector and Standard Model (SM). While the fermionic DM is non-thermal, we will explain two scenarios in which production…

Dark matter (DM) charged under a dark U(1) force appears in many extensions of the Standard Model, and has been invoked to explain anomalies in cosmic-ray data, as well as a self-interacting DM candidate. In this paper, we perform a…

We study the damping of an oscillating scalar field in a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker spacetime by perturbative processes, taking into account the finite density effects that interactions with the plasma of decay products have on the damping…

We study nonlinear structure formation in the Bound Dark Energy model (BDE), where dark energy (DE) corresponds to a light scalar meson particle $\phi$ dynamically formed at a condensation energy scale $\Lambda_c$. The evolution of this…

We calculate the cross-sections for the radiative formation of bound states by dark matter whose interactions are described in the non-relativistic regime by a Yukawa potential. These cross-sections are important for cosmological and…

To trace the particle nature of dark matter (DM) from cosmic microwave background observations, we study the co-evolution of DM density perturbation and primordial metric perturbation during DM production. Solving the perturbative Einstein…

We consider a renormalizable extension of the standard model whose fermionic dark matter (DM) candidate interacts with a real singlet pseudo-scalar via a pseudo-scalar Yukawa term while we assume that the full Lagrangian is CP-conserved in…

Within the model of self-gravitating Bose--Einstein condensate (BEC) dark matter (DM) it is argued that the axion-like self-interaction of ultralight bosons provides the existence of rarefied and dense phases, which are predicted earlier on…
