Semi-annihilation of dark matter
We show that the thermal relic abundance of dark matter can be affected by a new type of reaction: semi-annihilation. Semi-annihilation takes the schematic form ..., where psi i are stable dark matter particles and phi is an unstable state. Such reactions are generically present when dark matter is...
