Dark Matter Light DM Detection 1

Speaker

Tanmay Poddar (Physical Research Laboratory)

Description

Strong bounds from direct detection experiment put stringent
limit on the dark matter mass which forces us to go beyond WIMP model of dark matter. In recent years the light mass dark matter particles gain lots of attention among the particle physicists. In this talk I will discuss about light gauge bosons motivated from U(1) extension of standard model and axions which can be a possible dark matter candidates and its
detection in several astrophysical experiments.
