Scalar Septuplet Dark Matter and Enhanced $h\to \gamma \gamma$ Decay Rate

Abstract

Inspired by recent results on the Higgs search from ATLAS and CMS, we extend the SM with complex septuplet scalars. The lightest neutral component of the septuplets is a natural cold dark Matter candidate and the charged components can contribute to the $h\to \gamma \gamma$ decay rate, providing a significant enhancement factor. The dark matter phenomenology and possible collider signatures of the model are investigated. We find a dark matter candidate with mass around 70 GeV consistent with astrophysical and direct detection constraints. In the meanwhile, the enhancement factor of $h\to \gamma \gamma$ decay rate can be in the range 1.5\sim 2.
