Glueball dark matter
We delve deeper into the potential composition of dark matter as stable scalar glueballs from a confining dark SU(N) gauge theory, focusing on N={3,4,5}. To predict the relic abundance of glueballs for the various gauge groups and scenarios of thermalization of the dark gluon gas, we employ a thermal effective theory that accounts for the strong-coupling dynamics in agreement with lattice simulati
