SIMP dark matter with gauged Z 3 symmetry
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider a complex scalar field as SIMP dark matter in models with gauged Z3 discrete symmetry appearing as a remnant of dark local U(1). Dark matter (DM) annihilates dominantly by the 3-to-2 scattering, due to the DM cubic coupling in combination with the DM quartic coupling or the Z ′ gauge and dark Higgs couplings. We show that a light Z ′ gauge boson makes DM in kinetic equilibrium with thermal plasma at freezeout and it affects the DM relic density and perturbativity/unitarity constraints for DM self-interactions. We show that the large DM self-interactions are consistent with solving small-scale structure problems and explaining the DM halo separation recently observed in Abell 3827 cluster. Various bounds on the model from the SIMP conditions, DM selfinteractions, Z ′ searches, DM direct/indirect detection experiments, and Higgs signals, are also discussed.

Z 3 Dark Matter and Two - Loop Neutrino Mass
Dark matter is usually distinguished from ordinary matter by an odd-even parity, i.e. the discrete symmetry Z 2. The new idea of Z 3 dark matter is proposed with a special application to generating radiative Majorana neutrino masses in two-loop order.

متن کاملPhenomenology of U(1)Lμ−Lτ charged dark matter at PAMELA and colliders
Recent data on e+ and p̄ cosmic rays indicate that dark matter annihilate into the standard model (SM) particles through new leptophilic interaction. In this paper, we consider a standard model extension with the gauged U(1)Lμ−Lτ group, with a new Dirac fermion charged under this U(1) as a dark matter. We study the muon (g − 2)μ, thermal relic density of the cold dark matter, and the collider si...
متن کاملDark Energy in an Axion Model with Explicit Z(N) Symmetry Breaking
We point out that a well known axion model with an explicit Z(N) symmetry breaking term predicts both dark energy and cold dark matter. We estimate the parameters of this model which fit the observed densities of the dark components of the universe. We find that the parameters do not conflict with any observations. In this paper we point out that a well known axion action, originally proposed b...
