This work sets new upper limits on decay lifetimes and couplings for axion-like particles, dark photons, scalars, and B-L or L_i-L_j vector bosons using 511 keV line, X-ray continuum, and cosmic-ray flux observations.

abstract
We describe a simple model of Dark Matter, which explains the PAMELA/ATIC excesses while being consistent with all present constraints. The DAMA annual modulation signal can also be explained for some values of the parameters. The model consists of a Dark Sector containing a weakly coupled broken U(1) gauge symmetry, under which only the Dark Matter state and the leptons are charged.

Super-Kamiokande data constrains the DM-electron scattering cross-section for leptophilic dark matter to ~4e-41 cm2 below 100 GeV, exceeding direct detection by over an order of magnitude.
Muonphilic portals to fermionic asymmetric dark matter are constrained by existing data and can be probed further by 3 and 10 TeV muon colliders.
A parameter space analysis of a leptophilic scalar mediator model for Majorana dark matter yields a viable sub-GeV region after applying relic density, cosmological, astrophysical, and laboratory constraints.
