[math-ias] Reminder: TODAY HET Seminar at IAS - Raffaele D'Agnolo - 1:45 PM

[Lisa Fleischer]

*High Energy Theory Seminar, **Friday, December 9, 2016

“WIMPs, Miracles and Coincidences”

* Location: Bloomberg Hall Physics Library

Time: 1:45 PM

Speaker(s): Raffaele D'Agnolo, Member, School of Natural Sciences, IAS

*Description:* I will briefly review our current experimental knowledge 
of dark matter and then discuss recent developments in model building. 
In particular I will show that dark matter can be a thermal relic 
exponentially lighter than the weak scale without being exponentially 
weakly coupled. I will discuss concrete examples of light thermal dark 
matter with sizable self-interactions and observable couplings to the 
Standard Model. The focus will be on how minimal deformations of the 
WIMP paradigm produce vastly different phenomenological consequences.
