Description
Author
Alexandre Merle obtained his Ph.D. from Heidelberg University in 2009. He is currently in a Senior Postdoc position at the Max Planck Institute for Physics. His main research is theoretical elementary particle physics and cosmology, with a particular focus on neutrinos, Dark Matter, and their interconnections. He has written more than 60 papers on various topics; is an active contributor to the field of keV sterile neutrino Dark Matter, having discovered the production mechanism (FIMP scalar decay) that is currently in best agreement with data.

Resurrection from the downfall - production by particle decays
The emergence of order - cosmic structure formation
Consult the stars for an answer - astrophysical signals
The needle in the dark haystack - experimental attempts
What to take home - conclusions and outlook
