Dark matter self-interactions and small scale structure

S Tulin, HB Yu - Physics Reports, 2018 - Elsevier
We review theories of dark matter (DM) beyond the collisionless paradigm, known as self-
interacting dark matter (SIDM), and their observable implications for astrophysical structure …

Primordial black hole constraints with Hawking radiation—A review

J Auffinger - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2023 - Elsevier
Primordial black holes are under intense scrutiny since the detection of gravitational waves
from mergers of Solar-mass black holes in 2015. More recently, the development of …

Indirect dark matter signatures in the cosmic dark ages. I. Generalizing the bound on -wave dark matter annihilation from Planck results

TR Slatyer - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
Recent measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies by Planck
provide a sensitive probe of dark matter annihilation during the cosmic dark ages, and …

New cosmological constraints on primordial black holes

BJ Carr, K Kohri, Y Sendouda, J Yokoyama - Physical Review D—Particles …, 2010 - APS
We update the constraints on the fraction of the Universe going into primordial black holes in
the mass range 10 9–10 17 g associated with the effects of their evaporations on big bang …

Cosmological constraints on exotic injection of electromagnetic energy

V Poulin, J Lesgourgues… - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
We compute cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy constraints on exotic forms of
energy injection in electromagnetic (em) channels over a large range of timescales. We …

Sterile neutrino dark matter

A Boyarsky, M Drewes, T Lasserre, S Mertens… - Progress in Particle and …, 2019 - Elsevier
We review sterile neutrinos as possible Dark Matter candidates. After a short summary on

The evolution of CMB spectral distortions in the early Universe

J Chluba, RA Sunyaev - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2012 - academic.oup.com
The energy spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) allows us to constrain
episodes of energy release in the early Universe. In this paper, we revisit and refine …

CMB constraints on WIMP annihilation: energy absorption during the recombination epoch

TR Slatyer, N Padmanabhan, DP Finkbeiner - Physical Review D—Particles …, 2009 - APS
We compute in detail the rate at which energy injected by dark matter (DM) annihilation
heats and ionizes the photon-baryon plasma at z∼ 1000, and provide accurate fitting …

Exotic energy injection in the early Universe. II. CMB spectral distortions and constraints on light dark matter

H Liu, W Qin, GW Ridgway, TR Slatyer - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We calculate the post-recombination contribution to the cosmic microwave background
(CMB) spectral distortion due to general exotic energy injections, including dark matter (DM) …
