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:

TL;DR: The first dedicated cosmic-ray antideuteron workshop was held at UCLA in June 2014 as discussed by the authors, which aimed to provide the first coherent discussion of the relevant dark matter theories that antidesurterons probe, the challenges to predictions and interpretations of antideuron signals, and the experimental efforts toward cosmic antideutteron detection.

Primordial black holes as dark matter: converting constraints from monochromatic to extended mass distributions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derive a general methodology to obtain constraints for any PBH Extended Mass Distribution (EMD) and any observables in the desired mass range, starting from those obtained for a monochromatic distribution, they convert them into constraints for EMDs by using an equivalent, effective mass Meq that depends on the specific observable.

Mimicking dark matter through a non-minimal gravitational coupling with matter
Orfeu Bertolami,Jorge Páramos +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a non-minimal coupling between matter and geometry is proposed to generate a mechanism through which dynamics similar to that due to the presence of dark matter is generated.

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.
