We investigate the decay of bosonic dark matter with masses between 1 MeV and 2 TeV into Standard Model final states. We specifically focus on dark photons that kinetically mix with the Standard Model, as well as scalar dark matter models that have Y

Dark photons that are sufficiently light and/or weakly-interacting represent a compelling vision of dark matter. Dark photon decay into three photons, which we call the dark photon trident, can be the dominant channel when the dark photon mass falls

It has recently been realized that many theories of physics beyond the Standard Model give rise to cosmological histories exhibiting extended epochs of cosmological stasis. During such epochs, the abundances of different energy components such as mat

Light thermal dark matter has emerged as an attractive theoretical possibility and a promising target for discovery at experiments in the near future. Such scenarios generically invoke mediators with very small couplings to the Standard Model, but mo

Recently, the EMPRESS collaboration has included new data in the extraction of the primordial $^4$He abundance from Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN), resulting in a determination that differs from the previous value and from theoretical expectations. T

We model and constrain the unique indirect detection signature produced by dark matter particles that annihilate through a $U(1)$ gauge symmetry into dark photons that subsequently decay into three-photon final states. We focus on scenarios where the

New vector bosons that are coupled to conserved currents in the Standard Model exhibit enhanced rates below the electroweak scale from anomalous triangle amplitudes, leading to (energy/vector mass)$^2$ enhancements to rare Z decays and flavor-changin

Particle collisions at the energy frontier can probe the nature of invisible dark matter via production in association with recoiling visible objects. We propose a new potential production mode, in which dark matter is produced by the decay of a heav

Many theories of BSM physics predict the existence of large or infinite towers of decaying states. In a previous paper (arXiv:2111.04753) we pointed out that this can give rise to a surprising cosmological phenomenon that we dubbed "stasis" during wh
