Although it is usually thought that a class of weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matters (DMs), which have the vector coupling with the $Z$ boson, is denied by null results of the direct DM searches, such WIMP DMs are still viable if they are superheavy with the mass of $m_{DM} gtrsim 10^9$ GeV. In the future, the superheavy WIMP DMs can be searched up to $m_{DM} simeq 10^{12}$ GeV, which corresponds to the so-called neutrino floor limit. We show that the observed abundance of $Omega_mathrm{DM}h^2 simeq 0.1$ for a superheavy WIMP DM can be reproduced by a suitable reheating temperature of $T_R simeq m_{DM}/29$ after inflation, if the direct inflaton decay into DM is negligible or kinematically forbidden.

We propose the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) as a well-suited candidate for superheavy dark matter (SHDM). Various production mechanisms at the end of inflation can produce SHDM with the correct abundance, $Omega_{LSP} h^2 sim 0.1$, if its m
ass is sufficiently high. In particular, gravitational production requires that the mass $m_{LSP}$ of the LSP is above $3times 10^{11} GeV$. Weak interactions remain perturbative despite the large mass hierarchy, $m_{LSP}gg m_Z$, because of the special decoupling properties of supersymmetry. As a result the model is predictive and we discuss the relevant cosmological processes for the case of a superheavy neutralino within this scheme.
One of the most promising strategies to identify the nature of dark matter consists in the search for new particles at accelerators and with so-called direct detection experiments. Working within the framework of simplified models, and making use of
machine learning tools to speed up statistical inference, we address the question of what we can learn about dark matter from a detection at the LHC and a forthcoming direct detection experiment. We show that with a combination of accelerator and direct detection data, it is possible to identify newly discovered particles as dark matter, by reconstructing their relic density assuming they are weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) thermally produced in the early Universe, and demonstrating that it is consistent with the measured dark matter abundance. An inconsistency between these two quantities would instead point either towards additional physics in the dark sector, or towards a non-standard cosmology, with a thermal history substantially different from that of the standard cosmological model.
We study the superheavy dark matter (DM) scenario in an extended $B-L$ model, where one generation of right-handed neutrino $ u_R$ is the DM candidate. If there is a new lighter sterile neutrino that co-annihilate with the DM candidate, then the anni
hilation rate is exponentially enhanced, allowing a DM mass much heavier than the Griest-Kamionkowski bound ($sim10^5$ GeV). We demonstrate that a DM mass $M_{ u_R}gtrsim10^{13}$ GeV can be achieved. Although beyond the scale of any traditional DM searching strategy, this scenario is testable via gravitational waves (GWs) emitted by the cosmic strings from the $U(1)_{B-L}$ breaking. Quantitative calculations show that the DM mass $mathcal{O}(10^9-10^{13}~{rm GeV})$ can be probed by future GW detectors.
Weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) are one of the leading candidates for Dark Matter. So far we can use direct Dark Matter detection to estimate the mass of halo WIMPs only by fitting predicted recoil spectra to future experimental data. He
re we develop a model-independent method for determining the WIMP mass by using experimental data directly. This method is independent of the as yet unknown WIMP density near the Earth as well as of the WIMP-nuclear cross section and can be used to extract information about WIMP mass with O(50) events.
We study scenarios where Dark Matter is a weakly interacting particle (WIMP) embedded in an ElectroWeak multiplet. In particular, we consider real SU(2) representations with zero hypercharge, that automatically avoid direct detection constraints from
tree-level Z-exchange. We compute for the first time all the calculable thermal masses for scalar and fermionic WIMPs, including Sommerfeld enhancement and bound states formation at leading order in gauge boson exchange and emission. WIMP masses of few hundred TeV are shown to be compatible both with s-wave unitarity of the annihilation cross-section, and perturbativity. We also provide theory uncertainties on the masses for all multiplets, which are shown to be significant for large SU(2) multiplets. We then outline a strategy to probe these scenarios at future experiments. Electroweak 3-plets and 5-plets have masses up to about 16 TeV and can efficiently be probed at a high energy muon collider. We study various experimental signatures, such as single and double gauge boson emission with missing energy, and disappearing tracks, and determine the collider energy and luminosity required to probe the thermal Dark Matter masses. Larger multiplets are out of reach of any realistic future collider, but can be tested in future gamma ray telescopes and possibly in large-exposure liquid Xenon experiments.
