Dark matter bound states via emission of scalar mediators

Abstract If dark matter (DM) couples to a force carrier that is much lighter than itself, then it may form bound states in the early universe and inside haloes. While bound-state formation via vector emission is known to be efficient and have a variety of phenomenological implications, the capture v...
