GeV-scale dark matter is an increasingly attractive target for direct detection, indirect detection, and collider searches. Its annihilation into hadronic final states produces a challenging zoo of light hadronic resonances. We update Herwig7 to study the photon and positron spectra from annihilation through a vector mediator. It covers dark matter masses between 250 MeV and 5 GeV and includes...

Over the last decades noble liquid time projection chambers (TPCs) have become one of the forefront technologies for the search in WIMP dark matter. As the detector increases in size, so do the amount of data and data-rates, leading to higher demands on the analysis software.
The "streaming analysis for xenon experiments" ([strax][1]) is a...
Feebly interacting particles (FIPs) in the MeV to GeV range can be studied from a large range of past, current and future experiments. While the number of phenomenological studies on FIPs has dramatically increased in recent years, the available choice of tools has remained limited. We will briefly review existing tools and present some of the current challenges. We will finally focus in more...
