On Minimal Dark Matter coupled to the Higgs
Laura Lopez-Honorez, Michel H. G. Tytgat, Pantelis Tziveloglou +1
We provide a unified presentation of extensions of the Minimal Dark Matter framework in which new fermionic electroweak multiplets are coupled to each other via the Standard Model…
Recommendations of the LHC Dark Matter Working Group: Comparing LHC searches for heavy mediators of dark matter production in visible and invisible decay channels
Andreas Albert, Mihailo Backovic, Antonio Boveia +27
Weakly-coupled TeV-scale particles may mediate the interactions between normal matter and dark matter. If so, the LHC would produce dark matter through these mediators, leading to…
Dark Matter Benchmark Models for Early LHC Run-2 Searches: Report of the ATLAS/CMS Dark Matter Forum
Daniel Abercrombie, Nural Akchurin, Ece Akilli +136
This document is the final report of the ATLAS-CMS Dark Matter Forum, a forum organized by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations with the participation of experts on theories of Dark Ma…
A bonus complementarity in Simplified Models of Dark Matter
Bryan Zaldivar
Nowadays there is an active discussion about the definition of Simplified Models of Dark Matter (SMDM) as a tool for interpreting LHC searches. Here we point out an additional simp…
Simplified SIMPs and the LHC
Nadir Daci, Isabelle De Bruyn, Steven Lowette +2
The existence of Dark Matter (DM) in the form of Strongly Interacting Massive Particles (SIMPs) may be motivated by astrophysical observations that challenge the classical Cold DM…
The Flavour Portal to Dark Matter
Lorenzo Calibbi, Andreas Crivellin, Bryan Zaldivar
We present a class of models in which dark matter (DM) is a fermionic singlet under the Standard Model (SM) gauge group but is charged under a symmetry of flavour that acts as well…
Invisible Z' and dark matter: LHC vs LUX constraints
Giorgio Arcadi, Yann Mambrini, Michel H. G. Tytgat +1
We consider a simple, yet generic scenario in which a new heavy gauge boson couples both to SM fermions and to dark matter. In this framework we confront the best LHC limits o…
Extra U(1), effective operators, anomalies and dark matter
Emilian Dudas, Lucien Heurtier, Yann Mambrini +1
A general analysis is performed on the dimension-six operators mixing an almost hidden Z' to the Standard Model (SM), when the Z' communicates with the SM via heavy mediators. Thes…
Thermal and non-thermal production of dark matter via Z'-portal(s)
Xiaoyong Chu, Yann Mambrini, Jérémie Quevillon +1
We study the genesis of dark matter in the primordial Universe for representative classes of Z'-portals models. For weak-scale Z' mediators we compute the range of values of the ki…
Gauge Coupling Unification and Non-Equilibrium Thermal Dark Matter
Yann Mambrini, Keith A. Olive, Jeremie Quevillon +1
We study a new mechanism for the production of dark matter in the universe which does not rely on thermal equilibrium. Dark matter is populated from the thermal bath subsequent to…
Complementarity of Galactic radio and collider data in constraining WIMP dark matter models
Yann Mambrini, Michel H. G. Tytgat, Gabrijela Zaharijas +1
In this work we confront dark matter models to constraints that may be derived from radio synchrotron radiation from the Galaxy, taking into account the astrophysical uncertainties…
