Neutralino dark matter and the Fermi gamma-ray lines

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider singlet extensions of the MSSM, focusing on the NMSSM where a well-tempered neutralino can explain the lines while remaining consistent with current constraints.

Beyond minimal lepton-flavored Dark Matter

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider a class of flavored dark matter (DM) theories where dark matter interacts with the Standard Model lepton fields at the renormalizable level, and show that relatively large flavor-changing couplings are possible, while the dark matter mass is still within the phenomenologically interesting region below the TeV scale.

Sneutrino Dark Matter in Low-scale Seesaw Scenarios

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider supersymmetric models in which sneutrinos are viable dark matter candidates and check for phenomenological bounds, such as correct relic abundance, consistency with direct detection cross section limits and laboratory constraints, among others lepton flavour violating lepton decays.

Naturalness of neutralino dark matter

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the level of fine-tuning of neutralino dark matter below 200 GeV in the low-energy phenomenological minimal supersymmetric Standard Model taking into account the newest results from XENON100 and the Large Hadron Collider as well as all other experimental bounds from collider physics and the cosmological abundance.

Power spectrum tomography of dark matter annihilation with local galaxy distribution

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided updated theoretical estimates of the annihilation cross-section from gamma-ray data with Fermi telescope and 2MASS galaxy catalogs, by elaborating the galaxy power spectrum and astrophysical backgrounds, and adopting the Markov-Chain Monte Carlo simulations.

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.

CP Violation in the Renormalizable Theory of Weak Interaction

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that no CP-violating interactions exist in the quartet scheme without introducing any other new fields, and that the strong interaction must be chiral SU ( 4) X SU( 4) invariant as precisely as the conservation of the third component of the iso-spin.

Partial Symmetries of Weak Interactions

TL;DR: In this paper, the weak and electromagnetic interactions of leptons are examined under the hypothesis that the weak interactions are mediated by vector bosons, and it is shown that the simplest partially-symmetric model reproducing the observed electromagnetic and weak interactions requires the existence of at least four vector-boson fields (including the photon).
