摘要
What if dark matter particles were as light as a few MeV? Well, they would "just" need to decay or annihilate in exactly the right amount to explain the observed dark matter density... However, such a process would yield a detectable imprint on both particle and cosmological scales. Some of the signatures would be difficult to measure; some others would determine whether a galaxy can form stars or not. Does any (actually all) of these weird things happen?
