Description
!!! REGISTRATION closed !!! The Helmholtz Programme Matter and the Universe (MU) conducts its second annual symposium. MU gathers the communities of particle physics, hadron and nuclear physics and astroparticle physics for two ‘programme days’. MUTAG2015 took place at Forschungszentrum Jülich, MUTAG2016 takes place at the Helmholtz Institute Mainz. The programme features a broad range of topics from science strategy over intense topical parallel workshops to highlight lectures. We are specifically keen to attract colleagues from our partner universities - networking has been an effective asset of the Helmholtz Association. The spirit of the Alliances Terascale, EMMI and HAP lives on... The host Frank Maas and the MU spokesperson Johannes Blümer look forward to see you in Mainz!

        Studying generalized dark matter interactionswith extended halo-independent methods
        Abstract: The interpretation of dark matter direct detection experiments is complicated by the fact that neither the astrophysical distribution of dark matter nor the properties of its particle physics interactions with nuclei are known in detail. I will present a new framework that combines the full formalism of non-relativistic effective interactions with state-of-the-art halo-independent methods to deal with both of these issues in a very general way. This approach makes it possible to analyze direct detection experiments for arbitrary DM interactions independent of astro- physical uncertainties. I will demonstrate that the degeneracy between astrophysical uncertainties and particle physics unknowns is not complete and therefore future direct detection experiments will be able to infer at least some information on the coupling structure of dark matter without the need to make assumptions on its astrophysical distribution.

        Axion dark matter from topological defects
        Abstract: The axion arises as a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson from the spontaneous breaking of a hypothetical global Peccei-Quinn symmetry introduced to provide a solution to the strong CP problem of quantum chromodynamics. Due to the weakness of the coupling with ordinary matters, the axion is regarded as a viable candidate of dark matter of the universe. However, there is a theoretical uncertainty on the determination of the relic abundance of dark matter axions, which comes from a poor understanding of their production mechanism. In particular, the recent analysis of the spectrum of axions radiated from networks of topological defects revealed that axions produced by the defects give significant contributions to the relic cold dark matter abundance if the Peccei-Quinn symmetry is broken after inflation. In this talk, I will report the recent theoretical estimation of the axion dark matter abundance based on the results of field- theoretic lattice simulations of topological defects and discuss its implications for future experimental tests.

        Dark matter models with two mediators
        Abstract: A reliable comparison of different dark matter searches requires models that satisfy certain consistency conditions like gauge invariance and perturbative unitarity. These conditions can easily be satisfied in U(1)' extensions of the Standard Model, where a fermionic dark matter candidate as well as a new Z' gauge boson obtain their mass from the spontaneous breaking of the U(1)' by a dark Higgs. These dark matter scenarios contain two mediators, the new gauge boson and the dark Higgs, which can also act as final states in dark matter annihilation. I will discuss the general framework of consistent dark matter models with two mediators, and then review a class of dark matter models where baryon number is a local gauge symmetry.
