Elastic toroidal vector dark matter through a dark photon in the LUX-ZEPLIN high recoil window

The 2026 LUX-ZEPLIN search reports one nuclear recoil candidate at $248\pm23_{\rm stat}\pm23_{\rm sys}~\mathrm{keV}$ in an extended window reaching about $270~\mathrm{keV}$. We consider elastic scattering of neutral complex vector dark matter through its dimension-six toroidal electromagnetic moment and find appreciable spectral weight in this recoil region. The nonrelativistic reduction correlates $\mathcal O_{17}$ and $\mathcal O_{20}$, relating a coherent charge branch to a transverse spin tensor branch. For $m_X=1~\mathrm{TeV}$, natural xenon exhibits a broad high recoil maximum at $204.8$ to $206.6~\mathrm{keV}$ and retains $80.4$ to $85.4\%$ of this maximum at $248~\mathrm{keV}$. Resolving the interaction through a dark photon relates the high-to-low recoil ratio to the mediator mass. A renormalizable $SU(2)_X\times U(1)_D$ realization stabilizes the complex vector by a residual $Z_3$ gauge symmetry and generates the toroidal current through vectorlike messengers carrying a physical CP phase. For a benchmark with $m_X=0.998~\mathrm{TeV}$ and $m_{A'}=0.450~\mathrm{GeV}$, $R(248)/R(50)=1.43$ for GCN and $1.21$ for JJ55, while the odd $A$ xenon fraction remains above $99.9\%$. The response level ratio between the $350$ to $590~\mathrm{keV}$ and $100$ to $270~\mathrm{keV}$ intervals is about $0.46$ at this benchmark. The tensor branch is absent for spin zero argon, whereas annual modulation remains at the few percent level. The resulting spectral, isotope, target, timing, mediator, and high energy dependences give correlated tests of an elastic tensor interpretation of the LZ recoil.

Dynamical Structure of Einasto Dark Matter Wormholes: Thin-Shell Stability and Particle Transitions

In this manuscript, we develop topologically charged static and spherically symmetric wormhole (WH) configurations in Einstein gravity by employing the Einasto dark matter profile to construct an analytic shape function. The resulting spacetime satisfies the fundamental traversability conditions, while the matter sector exhibits localized violations of energy conditions near the throat, indicating confined exotic matter content. We analyze equilibrium through the TOV framework, revealing a non-equilibrium force competition in which hydrostatic and anisotropic contributions self-organize to sustain static configurations within specific parameter domains. Stability is examined via the anisotropy parameter and further extended to linearized radial perturbations of the surrounding shell, uncovering parameter-dependent stability windows that characterize the system's nonlinear response. A detailed dynamical analysis shows that the monopole charge parameter significantly restructures the effective potential landscape, modifying curvature and inducing qualitative transitions in particle motion. The coupled interplay between monopole charge, angular momentum, and particle energy governs a nonlinear transition from tightly wound quasi-bound states to unbounded scattering trajectories. This transition reflects an emergent dynamical phase structure in the WH spacetime. Furthermore, the complexity factor exhibits strong localization near the throat and vanishes asymptotically, indicating that structural complexity is confined to the inner nonlinear regime, whereas a volume integral quantifier is employed to estimate the total exotic matter content required to sustain the configuration.

Thermal Alignment as a Pathway to Axion Dark Matter

Thermal alignment cannot be inferred from the axion mean alone because the dissipative bath that erases the initial displacement also prepares field and momentum fluctuations. We derive a phase space covariance bound that quantifies this memory and noise relation in the full inertial Langevin system. A renormalizable finite temperature gauge theory then links the temporary susceptibility, the Chern-Simons bath, bath termination, and the stable late potential through one scalar transition. Solving the coupled mean and covariance evolution demonstrates erasure of the incoming state, release of a causal infrared spectrum, and capture of the full phase space distribution as axion dark matter across the transition interval. Thermal alignment therefore determines a calculable late axion state rather than a homogeneous displacement alone.
