Future global 21-cm observations could beat CMB limits on TeV-scale decaying dark matter for lifetimes ≳10^15 s, especially for decays into neutrinos.
Axion dark matter decay injects 1-13.6 eV photons that suppress H2, enabling atomic cooling halos and direct collapse black hole seeds for axion masses 24.5-26.5 eV and couplings down to 4e-12/GeV.
