We develop a general framework for the computation of light-portal dark matter direct detection, incorporating a consistent treatment of finite momentum trans- fer. In this framework, dark matter interacts with Standard Model matter through a light mediator, which simultaneously serves as the force carrier for dark matter self-interaction, potentially with a distinct coupling strength. The...
In this work, for the first time, the constraints on lepton flavor violating (LFV) dark matter (DM) scenarios via the astrophysical photons and positrons, including both the annihilation and decay modes, ${\tt DM(+DM)}\to e^\pm \mu^\mp, e^\pm \tau^\mp, \mu^\pm \tau^\mp$. Given the presence of LFV interactions in various DM models and the challenge of probing such interactions at terrestrial...
Recent CMS analyses report an excess in the diphoton-plus-$b \bar{b}$ channel, indicative of a heavy resonance around 650 GeV decaying into a Standard Model (SM)-like Higgs boson and a lighter scalar near 95 GeV. The case for a 95 GeV state is further supported by diphoton excesses observed by both CMS and ATLAS, as well as a $b\bar{b}$ excess previously observed at the Large...
The $\mu$-$e$ conversion process is one of the most powerful ways to test lepton-flavor-violating (LFV) interactions involving charged leptons. The standard model with massive neutrinos predicts an extremely low rate for $\mu$-$e$ conversion, making this process an excellent probe for testing LFV arising from new physics. Among many theoretical models that can induce LFV, the Supersymmetric...
