Title: Beyond WIMP dark matter (PBHs, axions)

Speaker: Kenji Kadota (HIAS-UCAS)

Abstract: There have been attempts to probe a wide range of dark matter candidates, whose mass ranges from 10^{-22} eV to the Planck scale (and beyond Planck scale if they are not particles).
Several dark matter candidates will be discussed, with an emphasis on the complementarity between the astrophysical and particle physics probes. The concrete examples include the primordial black hole (PBH) dark matter and axion-like particle dark matter along with their signals through gamma ray, CMB, radio signals including 21cm observations.
