Gordan Krnjaic (KICP) “Reviving MeV-GeV Indirect Detection with Inelastic Dark Matter”
Abstract Thermal relic dark matter below ∼10 GeV is excluded by cosmic microwave background data if its annihilation to visible particles is unsuppressed near the epoch of recombination. Usual model-building measures to avoid this bound involve kinematically suppressing the annihilation rate in the low-velocity limit, thereby yielding dim prospects for indirect detection signatures at late times. In this work, we … Read More
