Asymmetric Dark Matter
Kouvaris, Chris (CP3-Origins Center, Un. of Southern Denmark)

Asymmetric dark matter has recently gained a lot of interest especially because light candidates favored by DAMA and CoGeNT can link baryogenesis to dark matter production. In particular, interfering asymmetric dark matter can accommodate the DAMA/CoGeNT results without being excluded by other experiments. I will talk about this possibility as well as about severe astrophysical constraints on asymmetric dark matter emerging from observations of neutron stars and other compact objects.
