Abstract

In this work we present an update to a previous calculation of the Next-to-Leading Order (NLO) corrections to the Vector Dark Matter (VDM) direct detection cross section. The model under investigation is a minimal extension of the Standard Model (SM) with one extra vector boson and one extra complex scalar field, where the vector is the DM candidate. We have computed the spin-independent cross section for the scattering of the VDM particle with a nucleon. We now provide an update to the NLO cross section for the direct detection of the DM particle. We further discuss the phenomenological implications of the NLO corrections for the sensitivity of the direct detection DM experiments.
