abstract
Motivated by the tensions in the Hubble constant $H_0$ and the structure growth $\sigma_8$ between $Planck$ results and other low redshift measurements, we discuss some cosmological effects of a dark sector model in which dark matter (DM) interacts with fermionic dark radiation (DR) through a light gauge boson (dark photon). Such kind of models are very generic in particle physics with a dark sector with dark gauge symmetries. The effective number of neutrinos is increased by $\delta N_{eff} \sim 0.5$ due to light dark photon and fermionic DR, thereby resolving the conflicts in $H_0$. The elastic scattering between DM and DR induces suppression for DM's density perturbation, but without acoustic oscillations. For weakly-interacting DM around $100$GeV, the new gauge coupling should be $\sim 10^{-4}$ to have sizable effect on matter power spectrum in order to relax the tension in $\sigma_8$.

Dark Neutrino interactions phase out the Hubble tension
Dark matter-neutrino interactions that block neutrino free streaming shift CMB acoustic peaks and reduce the Hubble tension from about 3.8σ to about 2.1σ in a fit to Planck and WiggleZ data.

Interacting dark energy in the early 2020s: a promising solution to the $H_0$ and cosmic shear tensions
An interacting dark energy model with coupling proportional to the dark energy density alleviates the H0 and S8 tensions in Planck 2018 data but is not preferred once BAO and supernova data are included.
