In many dark matter models bound state transitions are fast. In a thermal bath, excited states contribute significantly to the effective annihilation cross section. Preliminary results indicate a dramatic change to the unitarity bound.

Title: Indirect search for dark matter bound state formation Abstract: Indirect searches for dark matter (DM) have conventionally been applied to the products of DM annihilation or decay. If DM couples to light force carriers, however, it can be captured into bound states via dissipation of energy that may yield detectable signals. We extend the indirect searches to DM bound state formation...
