abstract
We discuss the discovery potential of JUNO experiment for neutrino lines from MeV dark matter (DM) annihilation and decay in a model independent way. We find that JUNO will be able to give severe constraints on the cross section of DM annihilating into neutrinos and on the lifetime of DM decaying into neutrinos. More concretely, with $20$ years of data-taking in the fiducial volume $17$ kton, the cross section will be constrained smaller than $4\times 10^{-26}\,{\rm cm^{3}\,sec^{-1}}$ for the mass of a DM particle $15\,{\rm MeV} \lesssim m_{\chi} \lesssim 50\,{\rm MeV}$ at $90\,\%$ C.L., which might be strong enough to test thermal production mechanism of DM particles for such range of DM mass. The lifetime will be constrained as strong as $1\times 10^{24}\,{\rm sec}$ for the mass of a DM particle $m_{\chi} \simeq 100\,{\rm MeV}$ at $90\,\%$ C.L..

Cosmological signals of dark matter semi-annihilation
Semi-annihilating dark matter in cosmological structures yields a boosted flux that can rival or exceed the galactic signal, and structure formation requires ⟨σ₂→₁v⟩ ≤ 4.2×10⁻¹⁹ (mχ/1 GeV) cm³/s.

Bounds and detection of MeV-scale dark matter annihilation to neutrinos
Relic dark matter annihilation into neutrinos after neutrino decoupling adds a nonthermal contribution to the effective number of neutrino species, which can exclude large annihilation cross sections for MeV-scale dar...

Neutrino lines and photon continua from cascade dark matter decay
In cascade dark-matter decay, neutrino-line searches can beat gamma-ray limits whenever the intermediate mediator is long-lived enough to suppress the photon flux.
