Unification for the Darkly Charged Dark Matter

Abstract

We provide a simple UV theory for a Dirac dark matter with a massless Abelian gauge boson. We introduce a single fermion transforming as the $16$ representation in the SO(10)${}^{\prime }$ gauge group, which is assumed to be spontaneously broken to SU(5)${}^{\prime }\times$U(1)${}^{\prime }$. The SU(5)${}^{\prime }$ gauge interaction becomes strong at an intermediate scale and then we obtain a light composite Dirac fermion with U(1)${}^{\prime }$ gauge interaction at the low-energy scale. Its thermal relic can explain the observed amount of dark matter consistently with other cosmological and astrophysical constraints. We discuss that a nonzero kinetic mixing between the U(1)${}^{\prime }$ gauge boson and the Hypercharge gauge boson is allowed and the temperature of the visible sector and the dark matter sector can be equal to each other.
