Dark Matter Freeze-in Production in Fast-Expanding Universes
Francesco D'Eramo, Nicolas Fernandez, Stefano Profumo
If the dark matter is produced in the early universe prior to Big Bang nucleosynthesis, a modified cosmological history can drastically affect the abundance of relic dark matter pa…
US Cosmic Visions: New Ideas in Dark Matter 2017: Community Report
Marco Battaglieri, Alberto Belloni, Aaron Chou +248
This white paper summarizes the workshop "U.S. Cosmic Visions: New Ideas in Dark Matter" held at University of Maryland on March 23-25, 2017.
Surprises from Complete Vector Portal Theories: New Insights into the Dark Sector and its Interplay with Higgs Physics
Yanou Cui, Francesco D'Eramo
We study UV complete theories where the Standard Model (SM) gauge group is extended with a new abelian , and the field content is augmented by an arbitrary number of scalar a…
Saxion Cosmology for Thermalized Gravitino Dark Matter
Raymond T. Co, Francesco D'Eramo, Lawrence J. Hall +1
In all supersymmetric theories, gravitinos, with mass suppressed by the Planck scale, are an obvious candidate for dark matter; but if gravitinos ever reached thermal equilibrium,…
When the Universe Expands Too Fast: Relentless Dark Matter
Francesco D'Eramo, Nicolas Fernandez, Stefano Profumo
We consider a modification to the standard cosmological history consisting of introducing a new species whose energy density red-shifts with the scale factor like $ρ_ϕ\prop…
Probing Leptophilic Dark Sectors with Hadronic Processes
Francesco D'Eramo, Bradley J. Kavanagh, Paolo Panci
We study vector portal dark matter models where the mediator couples only to leptons. In spite of the lack of tree-level couplings to colored states, radiative effects generate int…
