1 Beyond Collisionless Dark Matter: From a Particle Physics Perspective Hai-Bo Yu University of California, Riverside Harvard SIDM workshop 08/07-08/09

2 Collisionless VS. Collisional Large scales: Great! Small scales (dwarf galaxies, subhalos)? cusp vs. core problem too big to fail problem These anomalies can be solved if DM is sufficiently self-interacting Spergel, Steinhardt (1999) Recent simulations See yesterday`s talk Harvard group: Vogelsberger, Zavala, Loeb (2012); Zavala, Vogelsberger, Walker (2012) UCI group: Rocha, Peter, Bullock, Kaplinghat, Garrison-Kimmel, Onorbe, Moustakas (2012); Peter, Rocha, Bullock, Kaplinghat (2012)

3 Astrophysics Summary Evidence for DM self-interactions on dwarf galaxy scales σ/m ~ cm 2 /g for v ~ km/s; Γ=nσv~H Constraints: elliptical halo shapes; evaporation of subhalos; core collapse; the Bullet Cluster Challenges Peter, Rocha, Bullock, Kaplinghat (2012) σ/m < 1 cm 2 /g for v ~ 300 km/s (group) and v ~ 3000 km/s (the Bullet Cluster) σ~ 1cm 2 (m/g)~ cm 2 (m/gev) A really large scattering cross section! Avoid constraints strong interaction cross section For WIMPs σew~10-36 cm 2

4 A Light Force Carrier A light force mediator is necessary in the perturbative and small velocity limit SIDM predicts a scale much below the weak scale ~100 GeV ~100 GeV Go beyond usual WIMPs ~sub-gev In many DM models that are well-motivated for other reasons, there are light mediators and DM candidates can be self-interacting

5 Scalar Dark Matter Scalar DM with self-coupling Peebles (2000); Goodman (2000) The simplest DM model: add a SM singlet scalar field Silveira, Zee (1985) SM Higgs ~η ~ρ 2 /λ σ~η 2 /m 2 σ~(ρ 2 /λ) 2 /m 2 Assume O(1) coupling, the DM mass is ~10 MeV Bento, Bertolami, Rosenfeld, Teodor (2000); Burgess, Pospelov, Veldhuis (2000); Holz, Zee (2001)

6 Asymmetric Dark Matter Ω /Ω B 5 Baryon number asymmetry η B =(n B n B)/n γ Dark matter asymmetry η =(n n )/n γ η B m 5m B 5GeV Nussinov (1985);Kaplan (1992);Kaplan,Luty, Zurek (2009); Shelton, Zurek (2011); Buckley, Randall (2011); Morrissey, Sigurdson, Tulin (2010)... DM candidates carry dark strong interactions Mirror matter as self-interacting DM Visible world Baryons Mirror world Baryons Mohapatra, Teplitz (2000); Mohapatra, Nussinov, Teplitz (2001); Foot (2001); Foot, Volkas (2003)... use the transverse cross section

7 Asymmetric Dark Matter ADM favors light mediators η =(n n )/n γ η B _ <σv>ann~<σv>wimp Thermal WIMPs <σv>ann>><σv>wimp Asymmetric DM e Need a large annihilation cross section Ɣ ē Ɣ - Buckley (2011); Lin, HBY, Zurek (2011)

8 Hidden Charged Dark Matter Visible Sector Gravity Hidden Sector An example: hidden charged dark matter e e Visible Photon e e α em = Hidden Photon α =? Feng, Tu, HBY (2008); Ackerman, Buckley, Carroll, Kamionkowski (2008);Feng, Kaplinghat, Tu, HBY (2009)

9 Hidden Charged Dark Matter αem Excluded Hidden Photon α =? Feng, Kaplinghat, Tu, HBY (2009) σ α2 m 2 v4 v~3000 km/s (Bullet Cluster) v~200 km/s (NGC720) Note: v-dependence The SS paper assumed a constant self-scattering cross section With a light mediator, velocity-dependence is a general feature of scattering

10 Models Motivated by PAMELA To fit the data <σv>ann~ <σv>wimp But the relic density is too small Ω 0.27 <σv>wimp/<σv>ann Boost DM annihilation now, but not in the early Universe PAMELA (2008) Arkani-Hamed, Finkbeiner, Slatyer, Weiner (2008); Pospelov, Ritz (2008) l If m~sub-gev S~ α/v l l l l l The same can mediate DM self-interactions Feng, Kaplinghat, HBY (2009); Buckley, Fox (2009); Loeb, Weiner (2010)

11 Atomic Dark Matter Dark atoms can have self-interactions (not too dissipative) Old history (related to ADM): mirror hydrogen atoms Explain DAMA Foot (2003); Kaplan, Krnjaic, Rehermann, Wells (2009) Cline, Liu, Wei ue (2012) Interesting cosmology: dark CMB; dark acoustic oscillation; late kinetic decoupling Feng, Kaplinghat, Tu, HBY (2009) Francis-Yan Cyr-Racine,Kris Sigurdson (2013) Francis-Yan talk; Kris s talk

12 Double-Disk Dark Matter 5% DM is dissipative and forms a dark disk (3DM) Fan, Katz, Randall, Reece (2013) McCullough,Randall (2013) e p From Fan`s slides Implications for direct/indirect detections See Lisa`s talk for details From Fan`s slides Partially self-interacting DM!

13 What Supersymmetry Can do? In typical SUSY models, neutralinos are DM candidates They have negligible self-interactions But SUSY can still play an important role for SIDM Generate the sub-gev scale naturally SUSY ~100 GeV ~sub-gev Katz, Sundrum (2009); Cheung,Ruderman, Wang, Yavin; Morrisey, Poland, Zurek (2009) Keep the WIMP miracle in the dark sector Ω 1 σv m2 α 2 Kumar, Feng (2008) Feng, Tu, HBY (2008) m2 W α 2 W We even do not need to sacrifice the WIMP miracle e.g. GMSB; AMSB

14 A Short Summary In many well-motived DM models, DM candidates are selfinteracting How to calculate the DM self-scattering cross section given particle physics parameters? σ???? Feng, Kaplinghat,Tu, HBY (2009) JCAP Feng, Kaplinghat, HBY (2009) PRL Lin, HBY, Zurek (2011) PRD Tulin, HBY, Zurek (2012) PRL Tulin, HBY, Zurek (2013) PRD Cold DM is non-relativistic, and the usual Born approximation breaks down in most cases

15 A Simplified Model More examples: Bellazzini, Cliche, Tanedo (2013) A Yukawa potential Map out the parameter space (m, m, α) - Solve small scale anomalies (small v) - Avoid constraints on large scales (large v) - Get the relic density right regulate forward scattering

16 Scattering with a Yukawa Potential DM selfscattering Exception: mϕ=0 Feng, Kaplinghat,Tu, HBY (2009) Perturbative (Born) regime α m /m φ 1 Feng, Kaplinghat, HBY (2009) Lin, HBY, Zurek (2011) Nonperturbative regime α m /m φ 1 d Classical regime m v/m φ 1 Resonant regime m v/m φ 1

17 Classical Regime Classical approximation from plasma physics Khrapak et al. (2003) (2004) Charged-particle scattering in plasma ± α r e m φrα = α EM m φ = Debye photon mass σt ~v -4 at large v σt ~const at small v (saturated) Apply to DM: σt is enhanced on dwarf scales compared to larger scales Feng, Kaplinghat, HBY (2009); Loeb, Weiner (2010); Vogelsberger, Loeb, Zavala (2012)...

18 Beyond Perturbation DM selfscattering Perturbative (Born) regime α m /m φ 1 d Nonperturbative regime α m /m φ 1 Classical regime m v/m φ 1 Resonant regime m v/m φ 1 d

19 Numerical Approach Quantum mechanics 101-partial wave analysis Transfer cross section See also: Buckley, Fox (2009) σ T k 2 4π = [(2 + 1) sin 2 δ 2( + 1) sin δ sin δ +1 cos(δ +1 δ )] =0 Rearrange ell ell+1 d Both formulas are identical in the limit of ell But the second one converges much faster

20 Numerical Approach Partial wave analysis Boundary conditions R (r) sin(kr π/2+δ )/r d R (r) cos δ j (kr) sin δ n (kr) The second one is much more efficient

21 Numerical Approach Classical regime Plasma ΣTm cm 2 g 0.01 Σ clas T m Tulin, HBY, Zurek (2013) m 200 GeV m Φ 1 MeV Α 10 2 v 1000 kms =0 ( + 1) sin 2 (δ +1 δ ) max [(2 + 1) sin 2 δ 2( + 1) sin δ sin δ +1 cos(δ +1 δ )] =0 We have confirmed the analytical formula from plasma physics

22 All regimes Numerical Approach 10 7 Cl Resonant Born ΣTmx cm 2 g m=100 GeV, α =10-2, v=10 km/s m Φ GeV Solid: numerical; Dashed: Born; Dotted: plasma In the resonant regime, the cross section can be enhanced or suppressed

23 Analytical Approach Hulthén potential κ 1.6 The Schrödinger equation is solvable analytically for ell=0 Black: numerical Red: analytical Black: numerical Red: analytical It is useful for simulations Tulin, HBY, Zurek (2013)

24 Beyond Perturbation DM selfscattering ± α r e m φr Perturbative (Born) regime α m /m φ 1 d Nonperturbative regime α m /m φ 1 We have analytical formulas in all regimes Classical regime m v/m φ 1 Resonant regime m v/m φ 1 d d

25 : numerical Resonant regime: s-wave: σt~v -2 p-wave anti-resonance Velocity Dependence σt has a rich structure Born regime: σt~const below MW scales Classical regime: σt increases on small scales Tulin, HBY, Zurek (2012) In many cases,σt is enhanced on dwarf scales This helps us avoid constraints on MW and cluster scales σt~v -4

26 Dark Force Parameter Space Classical Born Resonant dw: dwarf (30 km/s) halo shapes: (300 km/s) cl: cluster (3000 km/s) Fix α by Ω 0.27 shaded region: explain small scale anomalies heavy SIDM: σ has a strong v-dependence light SIDM: constant cross section limit

27 A Super Model Relic density Self-interactions When couples to the SM sector ɣ, Z (Higgs) l q Indirect detection Manoj`s talk l q Direct detection Sean`s talk

28 Implications Indirect detection Particle physics Astrophysics

29 Implications Indirect detection Vogelsberger, Zavala, Loeb (2012) also depends on particle physics parameters (m, m, α) We need add baryons!

30 Direct detection Implications Vogelsberger, Zavala (2013) dashed: Maxwell-Boltzmann DM self-interactions drive the DM phase space distribution towards to a Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution

31 Implications Direct detection Vogelsberger, Zavala (2013) DM self-interactions drive the DM phase space distribution towards to a Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution

32 A Few More Comments SIDM can be non-dissipative Hidden Photon Γ=nσv~H Inelastic DM Hidden Photon Hidden Photon Γ= αnσv<<h as long as α<1 up scattering: bad Δm<< mv 2 But v~10-30 km/s in dwarfs For TeV DM, Δm<1-10 kev down scattering: good

33 A Few More Comments Warm SIDM? ν ν Make DM warm late kinetic decoupling suppress power spectrum van den Aarsen, Bringmann, Pfrommer (2012) Heavy warm DM The original model was killed because it is not SU(2) invariant Laha, Dasgupta, Beacom (2013)

34 Conclusions No reason to believe DM has to be collisionless We have solved the scattering problem with a Yukawa potential completely With a light dark force (with one coupling α) - Explain anomalies on dwarf galaxy scales - Satisfy bounds on larger scales - Provide the correct DM relic density Implications for indirect/direct detection
