Asymmetric WIMP dark matter
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the consequences of a primordial asymmetry on the coupled dark matter and anti-dark matter Boltzmann equations and find large regions of parameter space that interpolate between these two extremes.

Spin-independent elastic WIMP scattering and the DAMA annual modulation signal
TL;DR: In this paper, the interpretation of the DAMA modulation signal in terms of spin-independent elastic WIMP scattering was discussed, and it was shown that the low-mass WIMPM region consistent with DAMA data is confined to WIMPs close to m� ≃ 12GeV, in disagreement with the constraints from CDMS and XENON.

TL;DR: The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a project for a next-generation observatory for very high energy (GeV-TeV) ground-based gamma-ray astronomy, currently in its design phase, and foreseen to be operative a few years from now.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dark Matter through the Higgs portal
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review scenarios in which the particles that account for the Dark Matter (DM) in the Universe interact only through their couplings with the Higgs sector of the theory, the so-called Higgs-portal models.

Massive hidden photons as lukewarm dark matter
Javier Redondo,Marieke Postma +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the possibility that a keV-MeV mass hidden photon (HP) accounts for the observed amount of dark matter and found that the hidden photon can only give a subdominant contribution to the dark matter.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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).
