Prospects of type-II seesaw at future colliders in light of the DAMPE excess

arXiv:1712.03642 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.97.095002

Abstract

The DAMPE excess at around 1.4 TeV could be explained in the type-II seesaw model with a scalar dark mater which is stabilized by a discrete symmetry. The simplest scenario is the annihilation followed by the subsequent decay , with both the DM and triplet scalars roughly 3 TeV with a small mass splitting. In addition to the Drell-Yan process at future 100 TeV hadron colliders, the doubly-charged components could also be produced at lepton colliders like ILC and CLIC in the off-shell mode, and mediate lepton flavor violating processes (with ). A wide range of parameter space of the type-II seesaw could be probed, which are well below the current stringent lepton flavor constraints.
