The Hubble tension can be significantly eased if there is an early component of dark energy that becomes active around the time of matter-radiation equality. Early dark energy models suffer from a coincidence problem -- the physics of…
In this paper we update the constraints on the simple decaying cold dark matter (DCDM) model with dark radiation (DR) as decay product. We consider two different regimes of the lifetime, i.e. short-lived and long-lived, and use the most…
Recent measurements of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) exhibit a mild-to-moderate tension with cosmic microwave background (CMB) and Type Ia supernova (SN) observations when interpreted…
The parameter space of freeze-in dark matter (DM) with mass $m_\chi$ through light dark photon (``minimal freeze-in DM'') is currently being probed by direct detection experiments through electron and nuclear recoil. Exploring the DM…
A long time ago (in 2014), in galaxies and galaxy clusters far, far away, several groups have reported hints for a yet unidentified line in astrophysical X-ray signals at an energy of 3.5\,keV. While it is not unlikely that this line is…
The $\Lambda$CDM model successfully explains a wide range of cosmological observations; however, persistent discrepancies most notably the $H_0$ tension between early and late time measurements challenge its completeness. No proposed…
In the left-right twin Higgs (LRTH) model, the neutral $\hat{S}$ is a candidate for weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter (DM). If its mass is lighter than half of the SM-like Higgs boson $h$, the new invisible decay $h \to…
The increasing observational pressure on the standard cosmological model motivates analyses going beyond the paradigm of the collision-less cold dark matter (DM). Since the only clear evidence for the existence of DM is based on…
The amount of decaying dark matter, accumulated in the central regions in neutron stars together with the energy deposition rate from decays, may set a limit on the neutron star survival rate against transitions to more compact objects…
In this work, we investigate the constraints on the total neutrino mass in the scenario of vacuum energy interacting with cold dark matter (abbreviated as I$\Lambda$CDM) by using the latest cosmological observations. We consider four…
The de Sitter Swampland conjecture compels us to consider dark energy models where $\lambda(\phi) \equiv |\nabla_{\phi} V|/V$ is bounded below by a positive constant. Moreover, it has been argued for Quintessence models that the constant…
We propose a dynamical dark energy model based on a canonical scalar field with a hybrid potential of the form $V(\phi) = V_{0}e^{-\lambda\phi} + V_{1}\phi^{n}$. We constrain the model's 11-dimensional parameter space using a comprehensive…
Observational constraints are considered on a $w_{log}$CDM model of the dark energy equation of state, $w_{d}(z) = w_{0} + w_{a}\left( \frac{\ln(2+z)}{1+z} - \ln 2 \right)$, using the most recent cosmological datasets including DESI Baryon…
The small-scale crisis is one of the most outstanding puzzles in modern cosmology and astrophysics. It may imply a suppression of matter perturbation at small scale. In this work, by taking into account of the gravitational effects from the…
Damped Ly$\alpha$ systems provide possibly the most significant evidence for early structure formation, and thus a stringent constraint on the Cold + Hot Dark Matter (CHDM) cosmology. Using the numbers of halos in N-body simulations to…
We consider non-standard cosmological models in which the late decay of a scalar field $\phi$ reheats the Universe to a low reheating temperature, between 5 MeV and the standard freeze-out temperature of neutralinos of mass $m_{\chi}$. We…
Tram et al. 2016 recently pointed out that power-law inflation in presence of a dark radiation component may relieve the 3.3 sigma tension which exists within standard LCDM between the determination of the local value of the Hubble constant…
We study dark matter (DM) models in which there are two dark sector particles, $\chi_1$ and $\chi_2$, of near mass. In such models, co-annihilation of $\chi_1$ and $\chi_2$ may be the dominant process controlling the DM relic density during…
In this paper, the implications of string Swampland criteria for a dark energy-dominated universe, where we have a deviation from the cold dark matter model, will be discussed. In particular, we have considered two models. One of them is…
Dark matter constitutes the great majority of the matter content in the Universe, but its microscopic nature remains an intriguing mystery, with profound implications for particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology. Here we shed light on…
