Constraints on Decaying Dark Matter with from Fermi-LAT

Can Kilic, Zhi-Xiang Yang, Taewook Youn

We investigate the gamma ray signatures of fermionic dark matter that carries one unit of baryon number and decays into three quarks. We compute the expected prompt and secondary g…

Mixing-suppressed inelastic dark matter: a minimal model for the LZ 248 keV event

Seung J. Lee, Taewook Youn

We construct a minimal Majorana singlet-vector-like-doublet model for the single nuclear-recoil-like event reported by LZ near 248 keV. At the splitting inferred from the recoil en…

Constraints on Loryons in a Two Higgs Doublet Model

Can Kilic, Sanjay Mathai, Taewook Youn

We consider Loryons, particles beyond the Standard Model that receive a significant fraction of their masses from electroweak symmetry breaking, in the context of a two Higgs doubl…

Dark Matter-Dark Radiation Interactions and the Hubble Tension

Manuel A. Buen-Abad, Zackaria Chacko, Ina Flood +3

Models in which a subcomponent of dark matter interacts with dark radiation have been proposed as a solution to the Hubble tension. In this framework, the interacting subcomponent…

Atomic Dark Matter, Interacting Dark Radiation, and the Hubble Tension

Manuel A. Buen-Abad, Zackaria Chacko, Ina Flood +3

We present a new class of interacting dark sector models that can address the Hubble tension. Interacting dark radiation (DR) has previously been put forward as a solution to the p…

A Generative Modeling Approach to Reconstructing 21-cm Tomographic Data

Nashwan Sabti, Ram Reddy, Julian B. Muñoz +2

Analyses of the cosmic 21-cm signal are hampered by astrophysical foregrounds that are far stronger than the signal itself. These foregrounds, typically confined to a wedge-shaped…

Stepped Partially Acoustic Dark Matter: Likelihood Analysis and Cosmological Tensions

Manuel A. Buen-Abad, Zackaria Chacko, Can Kilic +2

We generalize the recently proposed Stepped Partially Acoustic Dark Matter (SPartAcous) model by including additional massless degrees of freedom in the dark radiation sector. We f…

Optimizing pixel tracklet searches for shorter lifetimes

Matthew Gignac, Can Kilic, Rakhi Mahbubani +1

Pixel tracklets, disappearing tracks reconstructed with only pixel hits, have proven to be a promising technique in LHC analyses to search for dark matter candidates at the LHC tha…

Stepped Partially Acoustic Dark Matter, Large Scale Structure, and the Hubble Tension

Manuel A. Buen-Abad, Zackaria Chacko, Can Kilic +2

We propose a new interacting dark sector model, Stepped Partially Acoustic Dark Matter (SPartAcous), that can simultaneously address the two most important tensions in current cosm…

Twin Quark Dark Matter From Cogenesis

Can Kilic, Christopher B. Verhaaren, Taewook Youn

We extend the fraternal twin Higgs scenario to include a novel dark matter candidate as well as a mechanism for generating a matter/antimatter asymmetry in both sectors. A spontane…

Suppressed flavor violation in Lepton Flavored Dark Matter from an extra dimension

Niral Desai, Can Kilic, Yuan-Pao Yang +1

Phenomenological studies of Flavored Dark Matter (FDM) models often have to assume a near-diagonal flavor structure in the coupling matrix in order to remain consistent with bounds…
