Exothermic nuclear recoils from thermal quasi-pNGB dark matter

We study a two-component dark matter scenario comprising a stable pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson (pNGB) and its nearly degenerate long-lived quasi-pNGB partner. An approximate scalar symmetry relates their masses and suppresses the tree-level Higgs-mediated elastic scattering of the excited state …

Two component pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone-boson dark matter

We study a two-component pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone-boson (pNGB) dark matter (DM) model motivated by boosted dark matter (BDM). The model is based on a complex scalar field charged under a dark $\text{U}(1)_V$ gauge symmetry, with a softly broken global $\text{SU}(3)_g$ symmetry that is spontaneously …

Ecology and Conservation Strategy of Bats in Rural Area

This study was conducted in a 1100 square kilometer area between the Beki and Manas Rivers, extending from the railway line in the north to the Brahmaputra River in the south. Three bat species were identified: Indian Fruit Bat, Leaf-Nosed Bat, and Chungabaduli.
