Dark matter in a charged variant of the Scotogenic model

Abstract

Scotogenic models are among the most elegant and economic solutions that provide an explanation for two of the main open questions in particle physics: neutrino masses and dark matter (DM). In this work, after a brief discussion of the model, we present a phenomenological study of the DM candidate in a variant of the Scotogenic model. While in the original Scotogenic scenario the DM candidate can be fermionic or bosonic, only the latter is viable in this version. The presence of new charged states might reveal new regions in the parameter space compatible with current observations.
