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. | |
