Collider probes of singlet fermionic dark matter scenarios for the Fermi gamma-ray excess

Abstract

We investigate the collider signatures of the three benchmark points in the singlet fermionic dark matter model. The benchmark points, which were introduced previously to explain the Fermi gamma-ray excess by dark matter (DM) pair annihilation at the Galactic center, have definite predictions for future collider experiments such as the International Linear Collider and the High-Luminosity LHC. We consider four collider observables: (1) Higgs signal strength (essentially $hZZ$ coupling), (2) triple Higgs coupling, (3) exotic Higgs decay, and (4) direct production of a new scalar particle. The benchmark points are classified by the final states of the DM annihilation process: a pair of $b$ quarks, SM-like Higgs bosons, and new scalar particles. Each benchmark scenario has detectable new physics signals for the above collider observables that can be well tested in the future lepton and hadron colliders.
