Detection prospects depend on specific model parameters and astrophysical signals.

Theoretical frameworks guide future experimental searches for asymmetric dark matter.

Abstract

We review the theoretical framework underlying models of asymmetric dark matter, describe astrophysical constraints which arise from observations of neutron stars, and discuss the prospects for detecting asymmetric dark matter.
