The axion is a light pseudoscalar particle postulated to solve issues with the Standard Model, including the strong CP problem and the origin of dark matter. In recent years, there has been remarkable progress in the physics of axions in…
A model based on SU(3)_C X SU(2)_L X U(1)_Y X SU(2)_N has recently been proposed, where the SU(2)_N vector gauge bosons are neutral, so that a vector dark-matter candidate is possible and constrained by data to be less than about 1 TeV. We…

We consider the Standard Model extended by a hidden sector U(1)_X symmetry that is spontaneously broken at the TeV scale by the vacuum expectation value of an additional scalar field. We study "dark string" solutions in this model and their…
A vector-like colorless fermion doublet and a singlet added to the Standard Model allow a consistent interpretation of dark matter in terms of the lightest neutral particle, as they may help in obtaining successful gauge coupling…

Vector boson dark matter (DM) appears in $SU(2)_N$ extension ($N$ stands for neutral) of Standard Model (SM) where an additional global $U(1)_P$ symmetry is assumed and results in a generalized lepton number defined as: $L=P+T_{3N}$.…
