Particle dark matter: Evidence, candidates and constraints
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.About:

The Dark Matter Annihilation Signal from Galactic Substructure: Predictions for GLAST
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present quantitative predictions for the detectability of individual Galactic dark matter subhalos in gamma rays from dark matter pair annihilations in their centers, based on a hybrid approach, employing the highest resolution numerical simulations available (including the recently completed 1 billion particle Via Lactea II simulation), as well as analytical models,forextrapolatingbeyond the resolution limit.

CheckMATE: Confronting your Favourite New Physics Model with LHC Data
Manuel Drees,Herbert K. Dreiner,Jong Soo Kim,Jong Soo Kim,Daniel Schmeier,Jamie Tattersall,Jamie Tattersall +6 more
TL;DR: Check mate (Check Models At Terascale Energies) is a program package which accepts simulated event files in many formats for any model and determines whether the model is excluded or not at 95% C.L. by comparing to many recent experimental analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cold dark matter, radiative neutrino mass, μ→eγ, and neutrinoless double beta decay
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that neutrinos acquire mass only because of their interactions with dark matter, and that the neutrino is a Majorana particle, i.e. its own antiparticle.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the potential of directional detectors for detecting and characterizing WIMPs and present a powerful tool for demonstrating the Galactic origin of nuclear recoils and hence unambiguously detecting Dark Matter.

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 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.
