Self-Interacting Dark Matter from a Non-Abelian Hidden Sector

Thursday April 21, 2016
4:00 pm


 Presenter:  Tim Tait, UCI
 Series:  Nuclear, Particle, Astroparticle and Cosmology (NUPAC) Seminars
 Abstract:  I will discuss how hints from studying small-scale structure of the Universe may indicate that dark matter interacts with itself with surprisingly large cross-sections. Such a feature can be naturally accommodated in a theory in which the dark matter is a bound state of a confined dark non-Abelian gauge group. Both versions where the dark matter is a dark glueball or a dark glueballino are explored. Interesting and varied phenomenology is expected in this kind of theory.
