Abstract

We consider a dark sector containing heavy quarks and SU(N) gauge group. We show that in this case, a first order phase transition in the dark sector leads to non-equilibrium features that can affect the relic abundance by several orders of magnitude, modifying prediction for the Dark Matter mass.
