Novel Dark Matter Models and Detection Strategies    [PDF]

Jason Kumar

We consider the impact of relaxing some typical assumptions about dark matter interactions, including isospin-invariance, elastic scattering and contact interactions. We show that detection strategies with neutrino detectors, gamma-ray searches, new direct detection experiments and collider searches can all provide complementary information. We argue that data from many such strategies may be necessary to gain a more complete understanding of dark matter interactions.
