I show that the dark Higgs Boson, which is often ignored in DM phenomenology, can play a crucial and important role by restoring unitarity and opening new channels for DM pair annihilation. These are demonstrated in a number of different examples: (i) the invisible Higgs decay width in vector DM with Higgs portal,(ii) scalar or fermion inelastic DM and the exothermic DM scattering for the...

With a 5.9 tonne liquid xenon target, XENONnT is the latest of the XENON direct detection experiments searching for dark matter. Currently, the detector is taking data at the INFN Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso. XENONnT has achieved unprecedented purity both for electronegative contaminants, with an electron lifetime exceeding $10~\mathrm{ms}$, and for radioactive ${}^{222}$Rn, with an...
Deep Underground Laboratories are large research infrastructures with a rock overburden of order one km water equivalent.
In DULs the flux of muons from cosmic rays is reduced by several orders of magnitude with respect to surface. This allows to search for very rare events,
such as exotic radioactive decays, double beta decays, low energy neutrino and dark matter interactions.
The...
