Fermionic Dark Matter in Dynamical Scotogenic Model

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2023-08-29 v3

Abstract

In the Dynamical Scotogenic Model, the global BLB-L symmetry is supposed to be broken spontaneously resulting in a massless Goldstone boson called majoron, and massive right handed neutrinos which participate in the generation of light neutrino massses at one-loop. One of them being the lightest stable particle can be a thermal dark matter candidate. We discuss how the dark matter phenomenology differs from the original Scotogenic model, taking into account all the constraints coming from the observed neutrino masses and mixing, lepton flavor violations such as μeγ,μeJ\mu \to e\gamma, \mu \to e J, astrophysical and cosmological observations of stellar cooling and NeffN_{eff}, as well as collider signatures such as Higgs invisible decays. We find that the dark matter annihilation to majorons plays an important role to produce the right relic abundance.
