We discuss the Sommefeld enhancement of the annihilation cross section of dark matter into heavier unstable particles which have long-range interaction with each other. Since annihilation products become non-relativistic near kinematical threshold, the wave function is modified from the plain wave, and significant enhancement of the annihilation cross section can be induced. In this talk, we...

"We investigate a novel type of asymmetric dark matter (ADM) model in which the dark matter asymmetry and the baryon asymmetry in our universe (BAU) are produced simultaneously via low-scale spontaneous leptogenesis, where the mass scale of right-handed neutrino is much lower than the Davidson-Ibarra bound $M_1 \ll 10^{9}~\mr{GeV}$.

In our scenario, both asymmetries are predominantly sourced... -

Despite being a simple and well-motivated thermal relic scenario, coannihilation dark matter (DM) has remained largely unexplored experimentally due to the difficulty of probing its nearly degenerate mass spectrum. Recent LHC searches, however, have improved sensitivity, enabling broader explorations of the parameter space. We revisit the Bino-slepton coannihilation scenario in...
