Accidentally Asymmetric Dark Matter
abstract
We study the effect of a first-order phase transition in a confining $SU(N)$ dark sector with heavy dark quarks. The baryons of this sector are the dark matter candidate. During the confinement phase transition the heavy quarks are trapped inside isolated, contracting pockets of the deconfined phase, giving rise to a second stage of annihilation that dramatically suppresses the dark quark abundance. The surviving abundance is determined by the local accidental asymmetry in each pocket. The correct dark matter abundance is obtained for $\mathcal{O}(1-100)$ PeV dark quarks, above the usual unitarity bound.

Probing Heavy Dark Matter in Red Giants
Red-giant luminosity observations at the tip of the branch are used to set upper limits on dark-matter masses near 10^11 GeV and spin-independent cross sections near 10^{-37} cm² by requiring that DM-induced core heat...

Renormalon subtracted nonrelativistic QCD for heavy hadron systems
MRS-pNRQCD plus GFMC stabilizes heavy-hadron spectroscopy; NNLO baryon masses undershoot lattice QCD by 125–175 MeV with 1/m_Q scaling, and a critical mass ratio for tetraquark binding is extracted.

Primordial Black Hole from Tensor-induced Density Fluctuation: First-order Phase Transitions and Domain Walls
Tensor perturbations from FOPT and domain-wall sources are claimed to induce second-order scalar perturbations large enough to form primordial black holes, potentially all of the dark matter.

Stopping Dark Mesons in Their Tracks with Long-Lived Particle and Resonant Signatures
Recast LHC searches yield a ~1.2 TeV lower bound on long-lived charged dark mesons and show that anomaly-driven diboson resonances can reconstruct UV parameters like dark flavor and color numbers from IR measurements.
