Description

I describe a non-thermal mechanism, taking place at the end of inflation, to generate the dark matter relic abundance in the form of dark photons, whose mass can range between micro-eV to GeV. This dark matter candidate can have unusual features, possibly useful for signatures in direct and indirect detection.
