A model that can simultaneously explain Dark Matter relic density and the apparent matter anti-matter imbalance of the universe has been recently proposed. The model requires b -hadron branching fractions to Dark Matter at the per mille level. The b -hadrons decay to a dark sector baryon, ψ DS , whi...
