Abstract

We consider a minimal vectorlike extension of the Standard Model that naturally contains two types of stable neutral particles. They can be interpreted as the Dark Matter candidates. Here, the SM is supplemented by a new fermion (H-quark) sector that is in confilnement providing by the SU(2)HC gauge group. H-quarks interact with the SM particles via standard electroweak bosons. In analogy with the conventional QCD, H-quarks can form bound states, H-hadrons, that emerge in the σ− model framework. Along with the stable neutral H-pion, there is one more pseudo-goldstone (diquark) state, B0, which is stable and also can be a component of the DM. Mass splittings both for components of the H-pion triplet and for neutral H-pion and B0 have been calculated, it is shown that this splittings can be small. The relic abundance for this composition of the DM is analyzed as well as the DM particles scattering off nucleons. A feature of this scenario is that Dark Matter turns out to consist of particles which are close in mass but have different origin and interact differently with ordinary matter. So, the model predicts two-component structure of the DM together with some specifilc manifestations of it.

Summary

The model

We briefly describe the model under consideration, for more details see [15,16,17,18]. To consider the model in the DM aspect, only four parameters are needed It is the mass of H-pions and H-baryons at the tree level(mπ ). S θ ≡ sin θ 0.1, as it follows from the calculations Another important model parameters are the mass splittings between H-baryons and neutral H-pions along with the mass difference for H-pion triplet components. These splittings at oneloop level are caused by electroweak interaction and can be calculated directly. 0.03, mπ± − mπ0 ≈ 163 MeV we have three stable particles which can constitute the Dark Matter: H-baryon along with its antiparticle (their properties are similar, so we consider them as the one component) and neutral H-pion which is the lightest in H-pion triplet
