• Production regimes for Self-Interacting Dark Matter (2015, background): “For each case, we will determine the parameter space of the model which addresses the small-scale problems and is in agreement with the relic density, DM direct and indirect detection, BBN, CMB, X-ray constraints, as well as the cluster bound on self-interactions.”
