Abstract

We construct the minimal dark matter models in the left–right symmetric extensions of the standard model (SM), where the gauge symmetry SU(3)C×SU(2)L×SU(2)R×U(1)B−L is broken into its subgroup SU(3)C×U(1)em by nonzero VEVs of a SU(2)R doublet HR and a SU(2)L×SU(2)R bidoublet H. A possible candidate of dark matter is explored in the framework of minimal dark matter considering SU(2)L,R multiplet scalar bosons and fermions. Then we focus on SU(2)R quintuplet fermions with B−L charges 0, 2 and 4 as the minimal dark matter candidates and investigate their phenomenology. We show that the dark matter in the model can provide observed relic density with 2 TeV W′ boson which is motivated by the ATLAS diboson excess and CMS eejj excess. The possible mass of dark matter is predicted for each B−L charge. We then estimate the scattering cross section of dark matter with nucleon and production cross section of charged components in the quintuplets at the LHC.

Highlights

  • The Standard Model (SM) based on SU(3)×SU(2)L×U(1)Y has been very successful in describing particle physics phenomena from low energy to ∼ TeV

  • Still it suffers from a number of phenomenological drawbacks such as neutrino masses and mixings, nonbaryonic dark matter (DM) and matter-antimatter asymmetry as well as cosmological inflation, not even mentioning theoretical puzzles such as fine tuning of Higgs mass, the origin of flavor and generation, and strong CP problem, etc

  • We show that properties of the minimal DM such as the mass splitting within the multiplet are different from that in the canonical LR models [20]

Summary

INTRODUCTION

The Standard Model (SM) based on SU(3)×SU(2)L×U(1)Y has been very successful in describing particle physics phenomena from low energy to ∼ (a few) TeV. The LR symmetry is assumed to be spontaneously broken into U(1)em by nonzero VEVs of ∆R and φ This setup has been studied extensively, including flavor physics [9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19], minimal DM [20] and right-handed neutrino DM [21, 22]. We note that inverse seesaw mechanism can be applied introducing gauge singlet fermions [23,24,25] This simpler setup including SU(2)L doublet Higgs has been studied recently [26], mainly motivated by the ATLAS 2 TeV diboson excess [27] where a moderate excess is found by CMS [28, 29]. We estimate DM-nucleon scattering cross section for DM direct detection and production cross section of charged components in the DM multiplet at the LHC Run 2
