Higgs particles interacting via a scalar Dark Matter field

Abstract

We study a system of two Higgs bound state, interacting via a real scalar Dark Matter mediating field, without imposing $Z_2$ symmetry on the DM sector of the postulated Lagrangian. The variational method in the Hamiltonian formalism of QFT is used to derive relativistic wave equations for the two-Higgs system, using a truncated Fock-space trial state. Approximate solutions of the 2-body relativistic coupled integral equations are presented, and conditions for the existence of Higgs bound states is examined in a broad parameter space of DM mass and coupling constants.
