The experimental endeavour to directly detect dark matter must confront a possible dark matter mass range spanning over fifty orders of magnitude. Within the lowest mass regions, the dark matter oscillates as a coherent classical field, which can be leveraged in experiments that search for resonant effects. For higher masses, such coherent effects are absent, and conventional WIMP searches...

We investigate Majorana dark matter in a new variant of ${L_\mu-L_\tau}$ gauge
extension of Standard Model, containing three additional neutral fermions $N_e$, $N_\mu$,
$N_\tau$, along with a $(\bar{3},1,1/3)$ scalar Leptoquark (SLQ) and an inert doublet, to study the phenomenology of dark matter, neutrino mass generation and flavour anomalies on a
single platform. The lightest mass...

The scotogenic model can simultaneously account for the presence of dark matter and the origin of neutrino masses. We assume that the flavor neutrino mass matrix has one zero element and Yukawa matrix elements are real in the scotogenic model. It turns out that only one pattern of the flavor neutrino mass matrix in the one-zero-texture scheme within the scotogenic model is viable with the...

X-ray line searches are sensitive probes for many dark matter models, such as sterile neutrino dark matter in the nuMSM. I will discuss the current status of the experimental efforts, including that of the tentative signal at 3.5 keV. Then I will discuss some recent progress with NuSTAR and its prospects in the near future. Finally, I will talk about the idea of dark matter velocity...

The recent observation of the blazar TXS 0506+056 suggests the presence of a hard power-law component in the extraterrestrial TeV-PeV neutrino flux, in agreement with the IceCube analysis on the 8-year through-going muon neutrinos from the Northern Sky. This is slightly in tension with the soft power-law neutrino flux deduced by the IceCube 6-year High Energy Starting Events data. A possible...
