abstract

We consider non-standard cosmological models in which the late decay of a scalar field $\phi$ reheats the Universe to a low reheating temperature, between 5 MeV and the standard freeze-out temperature of neutralinos of mass $m_{\chi}$. We point out that in these models all neutralinos with standard density $\Omega_{\rm std} \gtrsim 10^{-5} (100 {\rm GeV}/m_\chi)$ can have the density of cold dark matter, provided the right combination of the following two parameters can be achieved in the high energy theory: the reheating temperature, and the ratio of the number of neutralinos produced per $\phi$ decay over the $\phi$ field mass. We present the ranges of these parameters where a combination of thermal and non-thermal neutralino production leads to the desired density, as functions of $\Omega_{\rm std}$ and $m_{\chi}$.

  1. Probing low-reheating scenarios with minimal freeze-in dark matter

    hep-ph 2024-12 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the minimal freeze-in dark photon model, low-temperature reheating pushes the required portal coupling to larger values, and the exact curve depends on the equation of state during reheating, widening the reach of ...

  2. Freeze-in Production of Dark Matter Prior to Early Matter Domination

    hep-ph 2019-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Dark matter freeze-in before an early matter-dominated epoch can dominate the relic abundance, and a broad early-equilibrium plateau makes the abundance nearly independent of the annihilation cross section.

  3. Constraining Nonthermal Dark Matter's Impact on the Matter Power Spectrum

    astro-ph.CO 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Nonthermal dark matter produced relativistically in an early matter-dominated era remains mostly relativistic at reheating, so free streaming suppresses small-scale structure and Lyman-alpha plus Milky Way satellite d...

  4. Multipolar Dark Matter Freeze-out in an Early Matter-Dominated Universe

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Entropy dilution from early matter domination reduces the couplings needed for multipolar dark matter to match the observed relic density, reopening regions excluded under radiation domination.

  5. Complementary Probes of Light Higgsinos: Electroweak Precision Measurements and Dark Matter Direct Detection

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Future electroweak precision measurements can probe light higgsinos up to 500 GeV even in compressed spectra below the neutrino fog, complementing direct detection which reaches the 1 TeV thermal relic mass.

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    The micrOMEGAs dark-matter package now solves Boltzmann equations with user-defined expansion and entropy histories, adds sub-GeV hadronic annihilation, and updates CMB, dwarf-galaxy, LZ, and CMS constraints.

  7. Probing Inelastic Dark Matter via Cosmic-Ray Upscattering in NGC 1068

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Constraints on sub-GeV inelastic dark matter are derived from cosmic-ray cooling in NGC 1068 by including elastic and deep inelastic scattering in a vector-portal model.

    hep-ph 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    A dark U(1)_D model with dark Higgs inflation and low reheating allows dark photon dark matter to achieve the observed relic density for a wider range of couplings, with inflation predictions matching Planck, BICEP/Ke...

  9. The curtain lowers on directly detectable higgsino dark matter

    hep-ph 2024-12 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    Using LZ2024 limits, the paper derives new lower bounds on gaugino masses and upper bounds on higgsino mass splittings in decoupled-MSSM higgsino dark matter scenarios, plus projections for the neutrino fog.

  10. $Z'$-Mediated Dark Matter with Low-Temperature Reheating

    hep-ph 2024-12 accept novelty 4.0 of 10

    Low-temperature reheating shifts the relic-density contours of Z'-mediated dark matter so that WIMP and FIMP solutions merge and new regions become testable.

  11. Neutron stars as thermometers for reheating induced dipole dark matter

    hep-ph 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Dipole dark matter produced by freeze-out or freeze-in, including entropy dilution from reheating, can be probed via neutron star heating due to momentum-dependent electromagnetic interactions.

  12. Phenomenology of $keV$ sterile neutrino in minimal extended seesaw

    hep-ph 2019-08 reject novelty 3.0 of 10

    A single keV sterile neutrino in the minimal extended seesaw with A4 flavor symmetry is scanned against 0νββ, dark matter, and leptogenesis constraints, and the normal neutrino mass ordering emerges as favored.
