We present a scenario in which a remarkably simple relation linking dark matter properties and neutrino masses naturally emerges. This framework points towards a low energy theory where the neutrino mass originates from the existence of a light scalar dark matter particle in the MeV mass range. A very surprising aspect of this scenario is that the required MeV dark matter is one of the favoured candidates to explain the mysterious emission of 511 keV photons in the centre of our galaxy. A possible interpretation of these findings is that dark matter is the stepping stone of a theory beyond the standard model instead of being an embarrassing relic whose energy density must be accounted for in any successful model building.

Conformal Freeze-In from Neutrino Portal
A conformal freeze-in model with a neutrino portal can produce the observed dark matter abundance and, in part of its parameter space, the neutrino mass scale, while evading X-ray constraints for composite sterile-neu...

Searching for MeV-mass neutrinophilic Dark Matter with Large Scale Dark Matter Detectors
Xenon-based dark matter detectors, especially DARWIN, could detect neutrinos from MeV-mass dark matter that annihilates to the third neutrino mass eigenstate, with projected sensitivity competitive with Super-Kamiokande.
