Abstract: The event rates for WIMP-nucleus and neutrino-nucleus scattering processes, expected to be detected in ton-scale rare-event detectors, are investigated. We focus on nuclear isotopes that correspond to the target nuclei of current and future experiments… read more here.

Abstract: We consider dark matter as Strongly Interacting Massive Particles (SIMPs) in a hidden sector, thermally decoupled from the Standard Model heat bath. Due to its strong interactions, the number changing processes of the SIMP lead… read more here.

Abstract: It was recently pointed out that semiannihilating dark matter (DM) may experience a novel temperature evolution dubbed as self-heating. Exothermic semiannihilation converts the DM mass to the kinetic energy. This yields a unique DM temperature… read more here.
