EXPERIMENTAL LIMITS ON PARTICLE DARK-MATTER CANDIDATES by Jelley, N

Background studies for the EDELWEISS dark matter experiment by Armengaud, E, Augier, C, Benoit, A, Benoit, A, Berge, L, Bergmann, T, Bluemer, J, Broniatowski, A, Brudanin, V, Censier, B, Chapellier, M, Charlieux, F, Couedo, F, Coulter, P, Cox, G, De Jesus, M, Domange, J, Drilien, A, Dumoulin, L, Eitel, K, Filosofov, D, Fourches, N, Gascon, J, Gerbier, G, Gros, M

“…The EDELWEISS-II collaboration has completed a direct search for WIMP dark matter using cryogenic Ge detectors (400 g each) and 384 kg × days of effective exposure. …”

Determining the structure of dark-matter couplings at the LHC by Haisch, U, Hibbs, A, Re, E

“…The latest LHC monojet searches place stringent bounds on the pp→χ̄χ cross section of dark matter. Further properties such as the dark matter mass or the precise structure of the interactions between dark matter and the standard model, however, cannot be determined in this manner. …”

Dark Matter, Modified Gravity and the Mass of the Neutrino by Ferreira, P, Skordis, C, Zunckel, C

“…Covariant theories of modified gravity generically predict the existence of extra degrees of freedom which may be interpreted as dark matter. We study a subclass of these theories where the overall energy density in these extra degrees of freedom is subdominant relative to the baryon density and show that they favour the presence of massive neutrinos. …”

Discovery strategies for dark matter and Higgsinos at the LHC by Liu, J

“…In particular, weak scale supersymmetry can provide a dark matter candidate and stabilise the electroweak hierarchy. …”

Modifying gravity with the Aether: an alternative to Dark Matter by Zlosnik, T, Ferreira, P, Starkman, G

“…To be able to understand the properties of galaxies, clusters of galaxies and the universe on the whole it has become commonplace to invoke the presence of dark matter. An alternative approach is to modify the gravitational field equations to accommodate observations. …”

Colliding clusters and dark matter self-interactions by Kahlhoefer, F, Schmidt-Hoberg, K, Frandsen, MT, Sarkar, S

“…<p>When a dark matter halo moves through a background of dark matter particles, self-interactions can lead to both deceleration and evaporation of the halo and thus shift its centroid relative to the collisionless stars and galaxies. …”

Observable consequences of cold clouds as dark matter by Kerins, E, Binney, J, Silk, J

“…Cold, dense clouds of gas have been proposed to explain the dark matter in Galactic haloes, and have also been invoked in the Galactic disc as an explanation for the excess faint submillimetre sources detected by SCUBA. …”

Coevolution of dark matter halos and black holes by Babic, A, Miller, L, Percival, W, Croorn, S

“…We investigate a model of the coevolution of black holes and dark matter halos. The evolution of dark matter halos is based on the Press-Schechter theory. …”

CRESST dark matter experiment: Status and perspectives by Sisti, M, Bravin, M, Bruckmayer, M, Bucci, C, Cooper, S, Stefano, P, Giordano, S, Feilitzsch, F, Frank, T, Jochum, J, Keeling, R, Kraus, H, Loidl, M, Marchese, J, Meier, O, Meunier, P, Nagel, U, Pergolesi, D, Pröbst, F, Ramachers, Y, Schnagl, J, Seidel, W, Sergeyev, I, Stodolsky, L, Uchaikin, S

“…The CRESST experiment in its first phase is using sapphire detectors with tungsten phase transition thermometers to search for dark matter WIMPs. At present four 262 g detectors are performing first measurements under low background conditions. …”

Is the concentration of dark matter halos at virialization universal? by Ricotti, M, Pontzen, A, Viel, M

“…Several recent studies suggest a correlation between dark matter halo mass and the shape of the density profile. …”

On connections between dark matter and the baryon asymmetry by Unwin, J

“…<p>This thesis is dedicated to the study of a prominent class of dark matter (DM) models, in which the DM relic density is linked to the baryon asymmetry, often referred to as Asymmetric Dark Matter (ADM) theories. …”

Direct dark matter search with CRESST and EURECA by Roth, S, Angloher, G, Bauer, M, Bavykina, I, Bento, A, Brown, A, Bucci, C, Ciemniak, C, Coppi, C, Deuter, G, Erb, A, v Feilitzsch, F, Guetlein, A, Hauff, D, Henry, S, Hofmann, M, Huff, P, Imber, J, Ingelby, S, Isaila, C, Jochum, J, Kiefer, M, Kimmerle, M, Kraus, H, Lachenmaier, T

“…The current status of the direct Dark Matter experiments CRESST (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting Thermometers) and the planned EURECA (European Underground Rare Event Calorimeter Array) is presented. …”

Dark matter - Lumpy haloes spin faster by Binney, J

"Dark matter" worlds of unstable RNA and protein. by Baboo, S, Cook, P

“…Astrophysicists use the term "dark matter" to describe the majority of the matter and/or energy in the universe that is hidden from view, and biologists now apply it to the new families of RNA they are uncovering. …”

A "Baedecker" for the Dark Matter Annihilation Signal by Evans, N, Ferrer, F, Sarkar, S

“…We provide a ``Baedecker'' or travel guide to the directions on the sky where the dark matter annihilation signal may be expected. We calculate the flux of high energy gamma-rays from annihilation of neutralino dark matter in the centre of the Milky Way and the three nearest dwarf spheroidals (Sagittarius, Draco and Canis Major), using realistic models of the dark matter distribution. …”

Heavy Dark Matter Through the Higgs Portal by March-Russell, J, West, S, Cumberbatch, D, Hooper, D

“…Motivated by Higgs Portal and Hidden Valley models, heavy particle dark matter that communicates with the supersymmetric Standard Model via pure Higgs sector interactions is considered. …”

Reproductive freeze-in of self-interacting dark matter by March-Russell, J, Tillim, H, West, SM

“…We present a mechanism for dark matter (DM) production involving a self-interacting sector that at early times is ultrarelativistic but far underpopulated relative to thermal equilibrium (such initial conditions often arise, e.g., from inflaton decay). …”
