Inert Doublet Dark Matter with an additional scalar singlet and 125 GeV Higgs Boson

In this work we consider a model for particle dark matter where an extra inert Higgs doublet and an additional scalar singlet is added to the Standard Model (SM) Lagrangian. The dark matter candidate is obtained from only the inert doublet. The stability of this one component dark matter is ensured by imposing a Z2 symmetry on this additional inert doublet. The additional singlet scalar has a vacuum expectation value (VEV) and mixes with the Standard Model Higgs doublet resulting in two CP even scalars h1 and h2. We treat one of these scalars, h1, to be consistent with the SM Higgs like boson of mass around 125 GeV reported by the LHC experiment. These two CP even scalars affect the annihilation cross-section of this inert doublet dark matter resulting in a larger dark matter mass region that satisfies the observed relic density. We also investigate the h1 → γγ and h1 → γZ processes and compared these with LHC results. This is also used to constrain the dark matter parameter space in the present model. We find that the dark matter candidate in the mass region m1 2 < mH < mW GeV (m1 = 125 GeV, mass of h1) satisfies the recent bound from LUX direct detection experiment. email: [email protected] email: [email protected] ar X iv :1 40 4. 58 40 v1 [ he pph ] 2 3 A pr 2 01 4
