We point out that thermal relic abundance of the dark matter is strongly altered by a non-perturbative effect called the Sommerfeld enhancement, when constituent particles of the dark matter are non-singlet under the SU(2)_L gauge interaction and much heavier than the weak gauge bosons. Typical candidates for such dark matter particles are the heavy wino- and higgsino-like neutralinos. We investigate the non-perturbative effect on the relic abundance of dark matter for the wino-like neutralino as an example. We show that its thermal abundance is reduced by 50% compared to the perturbative result. The wino-like neutralino mass consistent with the observed dark matter abundance turns out to be 2.7 TeV < m < 3.0 TeV.

Higgs boson mass and thermal wino dark matter from Starobinsky supergravity with the MSSM
Starobinsky supergravity coupled to the MSSM links the CMB inflationary scale to the Higgs boson mass (~125 GeV) and predicts thermal wino dark matter at ~3 TeV, testable at future colliders and direct detection experiments.

Weak corrections to Minimal Dark Matter annihilations
One-loop weak corrections to fermionic MDM annihilation cross sections are computed, with IR divergences canceling in the s-wave and 5% effects in doublet, triplet, and quintuplet cases.

Stellar-like Galactic center excess challenges particle dark matter
A mixed stellar-bulge and dark-matter fit to Fermi-LAT Galactic Center data yields upper limits on the annihilation cross section that reach the thermal relic line for masses ≲300 GeV under a contracted NFW halo profile.

Upper Bound on Parity Breaking Scale for Doublet WIMP Dark Matter
In a Parity-symmetric extension of the Standard Model with doublet-pair WIMP dark matter, thermal relic abundance requires the Parity breaking scale to be below 25-60 TeV.
