On the stability of particle dark matter
read the original abstract
From the particle physics point of view, the most peculiar property of the dark matter particle is its stability on cosmological time scales. We briefly review the possible origins of this characteristic feature for candidates whose relic density results from the thermal freeze-out of their annihilation. We emphasize that each stabilization mechanism implies an all specific phenomenology. The models reviewed include supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric models where the stability is a consequence of grand-unification, models where stability is due to an unbroken gauge group and models where the DM stability is accidental. The latter possibility includes minimal dark matter, hidden vector dark matter and composite DM models.

Decaying Dark Matter Halo Abundance from a Revised Spherical Collapse Model
A mass-dependent collapse threshold from a revised spherical collapse model predicts the decaying-dark-matter halo mass function, matching N-body simulations at z≈1 and for mild kicks at z=0.
