It is possible that the standard model is coupled, through new massive charged or colored particles, to a hidden sector whose low energy dynamics is controlled by a pure Yang-Mills theory, with no light matter. Such a sector would have numerous metastable "hidden glueballs" built from the hidden gluons. These states would decay to particles of the standard model. We consider the phenomenology of this scenario, and find formulas for the lifetimes and branching ratios of the most important of these states. The dominant decays are to two standard model gauge bosons, or by radiative decays with photon emission, leading to jet- and photon-rich signals.

Noble Dark Matter: Surprising Elusiveness of Dark Baryons
Dark baryons made of SU(2)_L multiplet dark quarks are predicted to be dominated by an SU(2)_L singlet state above TeV masses, which strongly suppresses interactions with the Standard Model.
