Flavoured Dark Matter Beyond MFV
نویسنده
چکیده
We review a model of quark flavoured dark matter with new flavour violating interactions. This simplified model describes Dirac fermionic dark matter that is charged under a new U(3) flavour symmetry and couples to right-handed down quarks via a scalar mediator. The corresponding coupling matrix is assumed to be the only new source of flavour violation, which we refer to as the Dark Minimal Flavour Violation (DMFV) hypothesis. This ansatz ensures the stability of dark matter. We discuss the phenomenology of the simplest DMFV model in flavour violating observables, LHC searches, and direct dark matter detection experiments. Especially interesting is the non-trivial interplay between the constraints from the different sectors.

Non-minimally flavour violating dark matter
Flavour symmetries provide an appealing mechanism to stabilize the dark matter particle. I present a simple model of quark flavoured dark matter that goes beyond the framework of minimal flavour violation. I discuss the phenomenological implications for direct and indirect dark matter detection experiments, high energy collider searches as well as flavour violating precision data. 1. Flavour sy...
متن کاملCosmological constraints on MFV SUSY
We study cosmological constraints in the context of R-parity violating MFV SUSY and find it is driven to tan(β) ≈ 1. These constraints are from two sources: first from the requirement that baryon number violation not undo baryogenesis and second that the flux of decay products from gravitino dark matter not exceed that observed by experiments such as PAMELA and Fermi LAT. The latter discussion ...
متن کاملBuilding the full PMNS Matrix from six independent Majorana-type phases
In the framework of three light Majorana neutrinos, we show how to reconstruct, through the use of 3 × 3 unitarity, the full PMNS matrix from six independent Majorana-type phases. In particular, we express the strength of Dirac-type CP violation in terms of these Majorana-type phases by writing the area of the unitarity triangles in terms of these phases. We also study how these six Majorana ph...
متن کاملDark matter in a SUSY left-right model
Supersymmetric left-right models are well motivated extensions of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model since they automatically contain the ingredients to explain the observed neutrino masses and mixings. Here we study a SUSY model in which the leftright symmetry is broken by triplets at a high scale leading to automatic R-parity conservation at low energies. The sparticle spectra in this ...
متن کاملParticle Dark Matter from Physics Beyond the Standard Model
So far the existence of the dark matter (DM) is our best experimental evidence for new physics beyond the Standard Model. The most recent WMAP data [1] confirm the standard cosmological model and precisely pin down the amount of cold dark matter as 0.094 < ΩCDMh 2 < 0.129, in accord with earlier indications. Nevertheless, the exact nature of the dark matter still remains a mystery, as all known...
