Gravitational waves and monopoles dark matter from first-order phase transition

We study the possibility of monopoles serving as dark matter when they are produced during the first-order phase transition in the dark sector. Our study shows that dark monopoles can contribute only a small piece of dark matter relic density within parameter spaces where strong gravitational waves...

description We study the possibility of monopoles serving as dark matter when they are produced during the first-order phase transition in the dark sector. Our study shows that dark monopoles can contribute only a small piece of dark matter relic density within parameter spaces where strong gravitational waves can be probed by ET and CE, and the monopoles can contribute a sizable component of the observed dark matter relic density for fast phase transitions with short duration.
