Two Models of Self-Interacting Dark Matter

Abstract

I explore two possible extensions to the standard model. The first is a simple addition, including only one additional scalar particle with an exact $U(1)$ symmetry, which allows the dark boson to condense even when relativistic. The second model includes five new fields consisting of: two dark matter candidates; a mediator boson; heavy dark neutrinos; and a heavy scalar.
