- Vol. 405, Iss: 5, pp 279-390
TLDR
The current status of particle dark matter, including experimental evidence and theoretical motivations, including direct and indirect detection techniques, is discussed in this paper. But the authors focus on neutralinos in models of supersymmetry and Kaluza-Klein dark matter in universal extra dimensions.

Lower mass bounds on FIMP dark matter produced via freeze-in

TL;DR: In this paper, lower bounds on the FIMP mass were derived for three different production mechanisms: two-body decays, three-bodydecays, and binary collisions.

Closing in on mass-degenerate dark matter scenarios with antiprotons and direct detection

TL;DR: In this article, the antiproton and direct detection data set stringent lower limits on the mass splitting, reaching 19% at a 300 GeV dark matter mass for a unity coupling.

TL;DR: In this paper, a search for dark matter pair production in association with a Higgs boson decaying to a pair of bottom quarks was conducted using data from 20.3 fb(-1) of pp collisions at a center-of-m...

Large Mass Hierarchy from a Small Extra Dimension

TL;DR: In this paper, the weak scale is generated from the Planck scale through an exponential hierarchy, but this exponential arises not from gauge interactions but from the background metric, which is a slice of spacetime.

The Structure of cold dark matter halos

TL;DR: In this article, high-resolution N-body simulations show that the density profiles of dark matter halos formed in the standard CDM cosmogony can be fit accurately by scaling a simple universal profile.

The Early Universe

TL;DR: In this article, the Robertson-Walker Metric is used to measure the radius of the Planck Epoch in the expanding universe, which is a measure of the number of atoms in the universe.

The Hierarchy problem and new dimensions at a millimeter

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a new framework for solving the hierarchy problem which does not rely on either supersymmetry or technicolor, and they take as the only fundamental short distance scale in nature.
