Abstract

The notion that dark matter and standard-model matter are connected through flavor implies a generic collider signature of the type 2 jets+μ±+e∓+missing energy. We discuss the theoretical basis of this proposal and its verifiability at the Large Hadron Collider.

Highlights

  • A generic framework[1] has been proposed for understanding how dark matter (DM) and flavor are connected through the 125 GeV particle[2, 3] discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)

  • The flavor structure of dark matter is transmitted to the visible sector through the radiative mass-generating mechanism, using the one Higgs doublet of the standard model

  • Whereas N1 is stable, N2 decays to μ±χ∓, and χ∓ decays to e∓N1. This implies a signature of the type 2 jets + μ± + e∓ + missing energy (ETmiss) at the LHC, and is rather distinct because of the different charged leptons in the final state

Introduction

A generic framework[1] has been proposed for understanding how dark matter (DM) and flavor are connected through the 125 GeV particle[2, 3] discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The flavor structure of dark matter is transmitted to the visible sector through the radiative mass-generating mechanism, using the one Higgs doublet of the standard model.
