Quintessence with Coupled Scalar Fields
M. C. Bento, O. Bertolami, N. C. Santos
We discuss the dynamics of a quintessence model involving two coupled scalar fields. The model presents two types of solutions, namely solutions that correspond to eternal and tran…

Cosmological Bounds on an Invisibly Decaying Higgs Boson
O. Bertolami, M. C. Bento, R. Rosenfeld
We derive bounds on the Higgs boson coupling to a stable light scalar which is regarded as a collisional dark matter candidate. We study the behaviour of this scalar,…

Self-Interacting Scalar Dark Matter and Higgs Decay
M. C. Bento, O. Bertolami, R. Rosenfeld +1
Self-interacting dark matter has been suggested in order to overcome the difficulties of the Cold Dark Matter model on galactic scales. We argue that a scalar gauge singlet coupled…
