We show that the mass of a self-interacting dark matter candidate, specifically a Dirac fermion, can be generated by composite dynamics, with a light scalar mediator emerging alongside the Higgs itself as composite particles. These novel…

The null signal from collider and dark matter (DM) direct detector experiments makes the interaction between DM and visible matter too small to reproduce the correct relic density for many thermal DM models. The remaining parameter space…

We study the phenomenology of singlet Dirac fermion dark matter in the simplified models where the dark matter interacts with the Standard Model particles at loop-level with the help of either colored or non-colored mediators. We especially…

In this work, we consider a class of dark matter (DM) models where the DM does not directly interact with the Standard Model (SM) particles at the tree-level. Therefore, the coannihilation mechanism is crucial in achieving the correct DM…

We consider a dark sector model containing stable fermions charged under an unbroken $U(1)$ gauge interaction, with a massless dark photon as force carrier, and interacting with ordinary matter via scalar messengers. We study its early…

We explore a class of dark matter models with two dark matter candidates, only one interacts with the standard model sector. One of the dark matter is thermalized with the assistance of the other stable particle. While both stable particles…

The asymmetric dark matter (ADM) scenario can solve the coincidence problem between the baryon and the dark matter (DM) abundance when the DM mass is of ${\cal O}(1)\,$GeV. In the ADM scenarios, composite dark matter is particularly…

While many interactions of dark matter (DM) with the standard model (SM) affect direct detection and LHC searches, there are only a few operators generating annihilation of DM into photons. All of these operators, except four of them, give…
