Asymmetric Dark Matter Stars
read the original abstract
We study the possibility of asymmetric dark matter with self-interactions forming compact stable objects. We solve the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equation and find the mass-radius relation of such "dark stars", their density profile and their Chandrasekhar mass limit. We consider fermionic asymmetric dark matter with Yukawa-type self-interactions appropriate for solving the well known problems of the collisionless dark matter paradigm. We find that in several cases the relativistic effects are significant.

Neutron star with dark matter using vector portal
Vector portal fermionic dark matter admixed in neutron stars produces mediator-mass-dependent changes to the equation of state, yielding distinct mass-radius relations and tidal deformabilities that observations can u...

Imprints of energy injection by compact dark stars in the 21-cm signal
Compact dark stars from asymmetric dark matter may inject energy that significantly deviates the 21-cm brightness temperature evolution from standard cosmology, offering a new probe for particle dark matter.
