Naturally-Coupled Dark Sectors
نویسندگان
چکیده
The dark sector, composed of fields that are neutral under the standard model (SM) gauge group, can couple to SM through Higgs, hypercharge and neutrino portals, pull towards its scale by loop corrections. This instability, which is not possible prevent in known completions, such as supersymmetry, due sizable couplings SM, calls for alternative mechanisms neutralize sensitivities sector ultraviolet cutoff above it. Here we review a mechanism incorporation gravity into predicts existence allows it be naturally coupled SM. We discuss illustrate salient processes probe sectors.

Dark Matter and Pseudo-flat Directions in Weakly Coupled SUSY Breaking Sectors
We consider candidates for dark matter in models of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking, in which the supersymmetry breaking sector is weakly coupled and calculable. Such models typically contain classically flat directions, that receive one-loop masses of a few TeV. These pseudo-flat directions provide a new mechanism to account for the cold dark matter relic abundance. We discuss also the p...

متن کاملA New Direction in Dark-Matter Complementarity: Dark-Matter Decay as a Complementary Probe of Multi-Component Dark Sectors
In single-component theories of dark matter, the 2 → 2 amplitudes for dark-matter production, annihilation, and scattering can be related to each other through various crossing symmetries. These crossing relations lie at the heart of the celebrated complementarity which underpins different existing dark-matter search techniques and strategies. In multi-component theories of dark matter, by cont...
متن کاملRaytracing simulations of coupled dark energy models
Dark matter and dark energy are usually assumed to couple only gravitationally. An extension to this picture is to model dark energy as a scalar field coupled directly to cold dark matter. This coupling leads to new physical effects, such as a fifth-force and a time-dependent dark matter particle mass. In this work we examine the impact that coupling has on weak lensing statistics by constructi...
متن کاملVoids and overdensities of coupled Dark Energy
We investigate the clustering properties of dynamical Dark Energy even in association of a possible coupling between Dark Energy and Dark Matter. We find that within matter inhomogeneities, Dark Energy migth form voids as well as overdensity depending on how its background energy density evolves. Consequently and contrarily to what expected, Dark Energy fluctuations are found to be slightly sup...
