micrOMEGAs2.0: a program to calculate the relic density of dark matter in a generic model
read the original abstract
micrOMEGAs2.0 is a code which calculates the relic density of a stable massive particle in an arbitrary model. The underlying assumption is that there is a conservation law like R-parity in supersymmetry which guarantees the stability of the lightest odd particle. The new physics model must be incorporated in the notation of CalcHEP, a package for the automatic generation of squared matrix elements. Once this is done, all annihilation and coannihilation channels are included automatically in any model. Cross-sections at $v=0$, relevant for indirect detection of dark matter, are also computed automatically. The package includes three sample models: the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM), the MSSM with complex phases and the NMSSM. Extension to other models, including non supersymmetric models, is described.

Dark Matter as a Source for Lepton Flavor Violation
A dark matter fermion is shown to simultaneously explain the relic density, satisfy direct detection and collider bounds, and produce observable rates for muon-to-electron transitions in a viable parameter region.

Monochromatic neutrinos from scotogenic dark matter
A variation of the scotogenic model makes the lightest pseudo-Dirac fermion singlet a dark matter candidate that annihilates with 90% branching ratio into neutrino pairs near threshold, yielding the observed relic abu...
