We suggest a new class of models - Fermionic Portal Vector Dark Matter (FPVDM) which extends the Standard Model (SM) with SU(2)_D dark gauge sector. While FPVDM does not require kinetic mixing and Higgs portal. It is based on the Vector-Like (VL) fermionic doublet which couples the dark sector with the SM sector through the Yukawa interaction. The FPVDM framework provides a vector Dark Matter...
t has been proposed that, in the large radius compactification (LRC) scenario, the Kaluza-Klein states might be considered as dark matter (DM) candidates. The universal extra dimension (UED) hypothesis, together with the LRC paradigm, holds the prospect of observing KK states at LHC if masses lie in the accessible LHC energy scale. If observed, they might be possible DM candidates, provided...
Anti-quark nuggets, AQNs, (ZHITNITSKY, 2003), have been suggested to solve the dark matter (DM) and the missing antimatter problem in the universe, and have been proposed as an explanation of various observations.
Their size is in the μm range and their density equal to the nuclear density with an expected flux of about 1 / km2 / year. For the typical velocity of DM constituents (~250...
The MoEDAL-MAPP experiment at Run-3 incorporates the MoEDAL and MAPP-1 (MoEDAL Apparatus for Penetrating Particles) detectors deployed at IP8 and in the UA83 tunnel on the LHC Ring, respectively. The passive, triggerless, MoEDAL detector has been taking data at Run-1 and Run-2 and is a world leader in the direct search for Highly Ionizing Particles (HIPs) at a Collider. HIP avatars of new...
The existence of a new type of non-baryonic matter in the Universe, also called Dark Matter (DM), is supported by compelling astrophysical and cosmological evidence. Considerations on its measured relic density favour the hypothesis that Dark Matter is composed primarily of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). Unfortunately, numerous experiments targeting the detection of these DM...
