Strong dark matter self-interaction from a stable scalar mediator

Abstract In face of the small-scale structure problems of the collisionless cold dark matter (DM) paradigm, a popular remedy is to introduce a strong DM self-interaction which can be generated nonperturbatively by a MeV-scale light mediator. However, if such a mediator is unstable and decays into SM...
