TL;DR: In this paper, a set of simplified models for dark matter and its interactions with the Standard Model particles are presented, and the guiding principles underpinning these simplified models are spelled out, and some suggestions for implementation are presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a concrete proposal for the consistent interpretation of Dark Matter searches at colliders and in direct detection experiments based on a specific implementation of simplified models of vector and axial-vector mediator exchanges.
104 citations
••
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied the z-fiducialization technique to a directional dark matter search and achieved the first background-free operation of a directional detector, achieving a 1.1 pb exclusion curve for spin-dependent WIMP-proton interactions at 100GeV/c2.
91 citations
••
TL;DR: MadDM v20 as discussed by the authors is a numerical tool for dark matter physics in a generic model and is the next step towards the development of a fully automated framework for dark-matter searches at the interface of collider physics, astro-physics and cosmology.
70 citations
••
TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarize the many dark matter searches currently being pursued in each of these four approaches and highlight the complementarity of the four general approaches that are required to sustain a vital dark matter research program.
39 citations
••
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors calculate the expected rate of carbon ions channeled in single-wall nanotubes once extracted by the scattering with a massive dark matter particle, depending on its initial kinematic conditions, the ejected carbon ion may be trapped in the nanotube array or stop in the bulk.
33 citations
••
TL;DR: In this paper, a dipole moment operator and a small dark sector mass splitting is proposed to explain the gamma-ray excess in the direction of the Galactic Center. But the authors find that the line is suppressed only by the relative scales and couplings.
28 citations
••
TL;DR: The axion field equations in a voltage-driven Josephson junction environment allow for a nontrivial solution where the axion-induced electrical current manifests itself as an oscillating supercurrent as discussed by the authors.
26 citations
••
TL;DR: In this article, the power spectra of comoving curvature perturbation and primordial gravitational waves in the FLRW universes with K = + 1 and maximally symmetry spatial sections according to the slowly rolling inflationary scenario were derived.
12 citations
••
TL;DR: In this article, the theoretical value of the cosmological constant is consistent with its observational value, and the Freidmann-Lama-Robertson-Walker cosmology embedded isometrically in an 11-dimensional ambient is studied.
