Abstract
The WIMP-nucleon scattering cross section in a simple dark matter model and its constraints from the latest direct detection experiment are treated here at the loop level. We consider a scenario with an emerging vector dark matter field that interacts with the Standard Model quarks, via loop contributions that are sourced from a scalar mediator. The involved parameter space for the dark matter-mediator masses is constrained by the Xenon1T limit and the neutrino floor. The current direct detection bounds are eluded by invoking the top partners in a Composite Higgs model, whose scale mass helps us in suppressing the WIMP-nucleon cross section.
