Axion effects on gamma-ray spectral irregularities with AGN redshift uncertainty
Hai-Jun Li, Wei Chao
We investigate the photon-axionlike particle (ALP) oscillation effects on TeV gamma-ray spectral irregularities from the uncertain redshift active galactic nuclei (AGN) VER J0521+2…
Axion-like Dark Matter from the Type-II Seesaw Mechanism
Wei Chao, Mingjie Jin, Hai-Jun Li +1
Although axion-like particles (ALPs) are popular dark matter candidates, their mass generation mechanisms as well as cosmic thermal evolutions are still unclear. In this letter, we…
from Excited DM state
Wei Chao, Jing-Jing Feng, Ming-Jie Jin
For a cold dark matter (DM) originating from the co-annihilation processes, there will be excited state(s) in the dark sector, that may decay or annihilate away shortly after their…
A new Direct Detection Strategy for the Cosmic Neutrino Background
Wei Chao, Jing-jing Feng, Mingjie Jin +1
The direct detection of cosmic neutrino background (CNB) has been a longstanding challenge in particle physics, due to its low number density and tiny neutrino masses. In this work…
First Order Color Symmetry Breaking and Restoration Triggered by Electroweak Symmetry Non-restoration
Wei Chao, Huai-Ke Guo, Xiu-Fei Li
In this paper we propose a new approach for the spontaneous breaking and restoration of the color symmetry in the framework of electroweak symmetry non-restoration (EWSNR…
Direct detection of Sub-GeV Dark Matter via 3-body Inelastic Scattering Process
Wei Chao, Mingjie Jin, Ying-Quan Peng
Direct detection of Sub-GeV dark matter (DM) is challenging because the recoil energy of the nuclei or electron from the elastic scattering of a sub-GeV DM off the target can hardl…
