Direct and indirect probes of Goldstone dark matter
Tommi Alanne, Matti Heikinheimo, Venus Keus +2
There exists a general model framework where dark matter can be a vanilla WIMP-like thermal relic with a mass of (100 GeV), but it still escapes direct detection. This ha…
Cosmological constraints on light flavons
Matti Heikinheimo, Katri Huitu, Venus Keus +1
The Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism is a well-motivated framework for generating the fermion mass hierarchy. This mechanism introduces flavons, complex scalars which are singlet under t…
Probing pseudo-Goldstone dark matter at the LHC
Katri Huitu, Niko Koivunen, Oleg Lebedev +2
Pseudo-Goldstone dark matter coupled to the Standard Model via the Higgs portal offers an attractive framework for phenomenologically viable pseudo-scalar dark matter. It enjoys na…
