Intriguing signals with excesses over expected backgrounds have been observed in many astrophysical and terrestrial settings, which could potentially have a dark matter origin. Astrophysical excesses include the Galactic Center GeV gamma-ray excess detected by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope, the AMS antiproton and positron excesses, and the 511 and 3.5 keV X-ray lines. Direct detection excesses include the DAMA/LIBRA annual modulation signal, the XENON1T excess, and low-threshold excesses in solid state detectors. We discuss avenues to resolve these excesses, with actions the field can take over the next several years.

  1. Conversions in two-component dark sectors: a phase space level analysis

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    In the double Coy dark matter model, full phase-space Boltzmann evolution with conversions changes relic abundances by up to an order of magnitude per component and by more than 100% for the total in some parameter regions.

  2. Dark Photon - ALP Freeze-in: 511 keV and H$\alpha$ Constraints

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A nearly degenerate ALP–dark-photon freeze-in model can reproduce the relic density and the 511 keV line while passing Hα and other constraints only in a narrow window with Λ≈10^10–10^12 GeV and ϵ≈10^-24–10^-23.
