Inception of self-interacting dark matter with dark charge conjugation symmetry

A new understanding of the stability of self-interacting dark matter is pointed out, based on the simplest spontaneously broken Abelian U(1) gauge model with one complex scalar and one Dirac fermion. The key is the imposition of dark charge conjugation symmetry. It allows the possible existence of t...
