Content
For thermal-relic dark matter in the multi-TeV regime, the formation and decay of metastable bound states can deplete its abundance significantly, thereby changing the predicted correlation between couplings and mass and affecting all experimental signatures. This effect is important if dark matter couples to vector force carriers, but becomes dramatic if dark matter couples to scalar mediators that carry a conserved charge, such as the Higgs doublet.
