Description
The freeze-in mechanism is an alternative mechanism for dark matter production to standard thermal freeze-out. Freeze-in computations are typically performed assuming a very high initial ("reheating") temperature. However, this temperature is poorly constrained and can take relatively small values. I will discuss dark matter freeze-in in such a scenario and highlight how dark matter production is impacted compared with the "infinite" reheating temperature case.
