The possibility of explaining the positron and electron excess recently found by the PAMELA and ATIC collaborations in terms of dark matter (DM) annihilation has attracted considerable attention. Models surviving bounds from, e.g,…
It has been suggested that the annihilation of Dark Matter particles \chi with mass between 0.5 and 20 MeV into e^+e^- pairs could be responsible for the excess flux of 511 keV photons coming from the central region of our galaxy that has…
A search for a new $Z'$ gauge boson associated with (un)broken B-L symmetry in the keV-GeV mass range is carried out for the first time using the missing-energy technique in the NA64 experiment at the CERN SPS. From the analysis of the data…
We report new constraints on the spin-dependent scattering cross section between low-mass dark matter and protons using data collected by the COSINE-100 experiment. By implementing a specialized event selection process using a multi-layer…
Exploring the realm of Dark Matter research, Light DM, which has a mass in the range of 1 MeV to 1 GeV, is a fascinating topic both theoretically and experimentally. We assume that the light dark matter is composed of complex scalars and…
An annihilation signal of dark matter is searched for from the central region of the Milky Way. Data acquired in dedicated ON/OFF observations of the Galactic center region with H.E.S.S. are analyzed for this purpose. No significant signal…
We test a novel idea of using a $\pi^-$ beam in the fixed-target experiments to search for New Physics in the events with missing energy. Bounds for invisible vector $\rho$ meson decay were derived, analyzed, and compared with the current…
The EDELWEISS experiment has improved its sensitivity for the direct search for WIMP dark matter. In the recoil energy range relevant for WIMP masses below 10 TeV/c2, no nuclear recoils were observed in the fiducial volume of a…
In the minimal supersymmetric standard models, neutralino dark matter with mass of $m_{\chi}\sim m_Z/2\sim 45$ GeV and $m_{\chi}\sim m_h/2\sim 62$ GeV can have the thermal relic abundance $\Omega_{\chi_1}h^2\simeq 0.120$ via the $Z$- and…
We calculate the scattering rate of sub-GeV dark matter in solid-state targets for spin-dependent dark matter -- nucleon interactions. For dark matter particles with mass below 100 MeV, the scattering occurs predominantly through incoherent…
We propose models of Dark Matter that account for the 511 keV photon emission from the Galactic Centre, compatibly with experimental constraints and theoretical consistency, and where the relic abundance is achieved via p-wave annihilations…
Recent gamma-ray and radio observations provide stringent constraints for annihilating dark matter. The current $2\sigma$ lower limits of dark matter mass can be constrained to $\sim 100$ GeV for thermal relic annihilation cross section. In…
We consider models of dark matter where the couplings between the standard model and the dark sector fall at resonance due to kinematics and direct detection experiments become insensitive. To be specific, we consider a simple model of 100…
Current dark matter direct detection experiments have low sensitivity to sub-GeV dark matter. In this work, we demonstrate that rare $B$ and $K$ meson decays with missing energy in the final state can serve as efficient probes in this mass…
We consider a light scalar dark matter candidate with mass in the GeV range whose $p$-wave annihilation is enhanced through a Breit-Wigner resonance. The annihilation actually proceeds in the $s$-channel via a dark photon mediator whose…
Given the recent constraints from the dark matter (DM) direct detections, we examine a light GeV-scale (2-30 GeV) neutralino DM in the alignment limit of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). In this limit without decoupling,…
Constraints on the indirect detection of dark matter are usually obtained from observations of astrophysical objects -- the Galactic Center, dwarf galaxies, M31, etc. Here we propose instead to look for the annihilation or decay of dark…
We suggest that supersymmetric dark matter be used to set the energy scale of a linear $e^+ e^-$ collider. Assuming that the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) is a stable neutralino $\chi$, as in many incarnations of the MSSM with…
The dark photon $A^\prime$ and the dark Higgs boson $h^\prime$ are hypothetical particles predicted in many dark sector models. We search for the simultaneous production of $A^\prime$ and $h^\prime$ in the dark Higgsstrahlung process…
We point out that last NA64 bound on coupling constant of hypothetical $X(16.7 MeV)$ vector boson with electrons plus the recent value of the anomalous electron magnetic moment exclude at 90 \% C.L. purely vector or axial vector couplings…
