Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are leading candidates for dark matter and have been widely studied. However, direct detection experiments have placed stringent constraints on many WIMP models. Some scenarios, such as Higgsino, Wino, and minimal dark matter, can evade these constraints. In these models, the dark sector contains an SU(2)_L multiplet, and the dark matter candidate...
Minimal Dark Matter is among the simplest and most predictive Dark Matter frameworks, with the Majorana SU(2) 5-plet as its smallest accidentally stable real representation. We present a comprehensive reassessment of its indirect-detection signals. The γ-ray flux from both Sommerfeld-enhanced annihilations and bound-state formation is calculated, incorporating next-to-leading-order corrections...
We investigate the possibility that the high-energy neutrino flux observed from the Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068 originates from dark matter annihilations within the density spike surrounding the supermassive black hole at its center. The comparatively lower gamma-ray flux is attributed to a dark sector that couples predominantly to Standard Model neutrinos. To explain the absence of a...
No signal of the electroweak (EW) scale WIMP has been observed so far, and the lighter WIMP, whose mass is much lighter than the EW scale, attracts attention. However, light WIMP receives severe constraints from cosmological (CMB and BBN) observation when the WIMP couples mainly to electromagnetically interacting particles. We constructed a model where the light WIMP interacts mainly with...
