Models for self-resonant dark matter

Seong-Sik Kim et al.

Summary: We propose a new mechanism to enhance the self-scattering and annihilation cross sections for dark matter with multiple components but without a light mediator. This mechanism utilizes the lighter dark matter component as a u-channel pole in the elastic co-scattering for dark matter, resulting in a large self-scattering cross section and a Sommerfeld enhancement for semi-annihilation processes. We study various combinations of multiple dark matter components with spins and parities, presenting a u-channel pole in the co-scattering processes.

Primordial black holes from an electroweak phase transition

Peisi Huang et al.

Summary: We propose a mechanism for the formation of PBHs through FOEWPT by introducing a real singlet scalar in the Standard Model, and the formation of PBHs is achieved through the collapse of Fermi-balls. The experimental signals include FOEWPT gravitational waves and multilepton/jet or displaced vertex final states at the LHC.

Gravitational wave signals of dark matter freeze-out

Danny Marfatia et al.

Summary: We study the stochastic background of gravitational waves accompanying the sudden freeze-out of dark matter triggered by a cosmological first-order phase transition. Models producing the measured dark matter relic abundance through bubble filtering and inflation/reheating are shown to have detectable gravitational waves at future interferometers.

Self-resonant dark matter

Seong-Sik Kim et al.

Summary: The study introduces a novel mechanism for enhancing dark matter interactions without the need for light mediators. By considering a model for two-component dark matter with a triple coupling, a u-channel resonance in dark matter elastic scattering is identified. The Sommerfeld factor is determined for the first time from the elastic scattering of two dark matter components, with implications for enhancing dark matter self-scattering and annihilation.

Probing superheavy dark matter with gravitational waves

Ligong Bian et al.

Summary: Research suggests that in the extended B-L model, the mass of superheavy dark matter could exceed the Griest-Kamionkowski bound and reach 10(13) GeV. While beyond the scope of traditional dark matter search strategies, this scenario can still be tested through gravitational waves emitted by cosmic strings.

Gravitational waves from first-order phase transitions in Majoron models of neutrino mass

Pasquale Di Bari et al.

Summary: In this paper, we discuss how the generation of right-handed neutrino masses in Majoron models may be associated with a first-order phase transition and the production of gravitational waves background. We explore different energy scales and potential signal testing scenarios. These studies provide important insights for future experiments with gravitational wave detectors.

Dark Matter production from relativistic bubble walls

Aleksandr Azatov et al.

Summary: This paper introduces a novel mechanism for generating the observed Dark Matter relics during the First Order Phase Transition in the early universe, by studying the impact of bubble expansion with ultra-relativistic velocities on the abundance of DM particles. The non-thermal production mechanism is investigated in the context of generic and electroweak phase transitions, with discussions on its application to Higgs portal DM and the signals in the Stochastic Gravitational Background.

Filtered pseudo-scalar dark matter and gravitational waves from first order phase transition

Wei Chao et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the filtering-out effect on dark matter entering an expanding bubble during a first order phase transition, as well as the factors that may affect the final relic abundance of the dark matter. Additionally, the study explores the stochastic gravitational wave signals emitted by the hidden sector phase transition as evidence of this model.

Precise dark matter relic abundance in decoupled sectors

Torsten Bringmann et al.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of the production mechanism on the abundance of dark matter, finding that the constraints on dark matter production mechanisms in decoupled sectors are much weaker, which has a significant impact on the interpretation of dark matter search results in hidden sector scenarios.

Dark Matter as dark dwarfs and other macroscopic objects: multiverse relics?

Christian Gross et al.

Summary: First order phase transitions can create relic pockets of false vacua and their particles, which can manifest as macroscopic Dark Matter. This can be predicted by a model involving a gauge theory with dark quarks as relics. During the transition, these dark quarks remain in the false vacuum and form Fermi balls, which can collapse into stable dark dwarfs or primordial black holes.

Dark matter, electroweak phase transition, and gravitational waves in the type II two-Higgs-doublet model with a singlet scalar field

Xiao-Fang Han et al.

Summary: The study focuses on dark matter observables, electroweak phase transition, and gravitational wave signals in the framework of the type II two-Higgs-doublet model with a singlet scalar dark matter S. By imposing constraints from the LHC Higgs data, it was found that certain parameter values require larger masses for the dark matter and Higgs boson. Furthermore, benchmark points were identified where the gravitational wave spectra reach future detector sensitivities through a strongly first order electroweak phase transition.

Semiclassical regime for dark matter self-interactions

Brian Colquhoun et al.

Summary: This work presents quantum-mechanical derivation and new analytic formulas for semiclassical momentum transfer and viscosity cross sections for self-interactions mediated by a Yukawa potential. The results go beyond the classical limit, allowing for both distinguishable and identical dark matter particles, and provide nearly complete analytic coverage of the parameter space for self-interactions with a Yukawa potential. The implications of the results are discussed and a new velocity-averaging procedure is provided for constraining velocity-dependent self-interactions.
