We study a limit of the nearly-Peccei-Quinn-symmetric Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model possessing novel Higgs and dark matter (DM) properties. In this scenario, there naturally co-exist three light singlet-like particles: a…
We investigate whether it is possible within the NMSSM to describe simultaneously a correct dark matter relic density complying with the latest null results from the LZ experiment, an extra Higgs boson with a mass of ~95 GeV visible in the…
A model of the pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone (pNG) dark matter (DM) is proposed. We assume that there is an $SU(2)_g$ global symmetry and a $U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry in the dark sector, and they are spontaneously broken into a $U(1)_D$ global…
Although the seesaw mechanism is a natural explanation for the small neutrino masses, there are cases when the Majorana mass terms for the right-handed neutrinos are not allowed due to symmetry. In that case, if neutrino-specific Higgs…
We propose and study a scalar extension of the Standard Model which respects a $\mathbb{Z}_3$ symmetry remnant of the spontaneous breaking of a global $U(1)_\text{DM}$ symmetry. Consequently, this model has a natural dark matter candidate…
As discussed recently by Hooper and Tait, the singlino-like dark matter in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) extended by a singlet Higgs superfield can give a perfect explanation for both the relic density and the Pamela…
Dark matter is examined within the ``golden region'' of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. This region satisfies experimental constraints, including a lower bound on the Higgs mass of 114 GeV, and minimizes fine-tuning of the Z…
We show that the $\mathrm{SU}(3)_C \times \mathrm{SU}(3)_L \times \mathrm{U}(1)_N$ model with right-handed neutrinos naturally accommodates a viable sub-MeV dark matter (DM) candidate realized as pseudo-Goldstone boson that acquires tiny…
This study explores a dark matter model in which a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson arises as a viable dark matter candidate from the spontaneous and soft breaking of global $\mathrm{U}(1)$ symmetries and stabilized by a residual $\mathbb{Z}_3$…
The particle-physics nature of dark matter (DM) remains one of the central open questions in modern physics. A widely used framework to investigate DM properties is provided by simplified models (DMSimps), which extend the Standard Model…
We study the possibility of right-handed neutrino dark matter (DM) in gauged $U(1)_{B-L} \times Z_2$ extension of the standard model augmented by an additional scalar doublet, being odd under the $Z_2$ symmetry, to give rise the scotogenic…
We present some phenomenology of the Higgs sector of the Minimal $B-L$ U(1) Extension of the Standard Model at the Large Hadron Collider. In this model, the existence of an extra gauge boson ($Z'$) and an extra scalar (heavy Higgs) are…
We study a two loop induced seesaw model with global $U(1)_{B-L}$ symmetry, in which we consider two component dark matter particles. The dark matter properties are investigated together with some phenomenological constraints such as…
When the classically conformal invariance is imposed on the minimal gauged B-L extended Standard Model (SM), the B-L gauge symmetry is broken by the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism naturally at the TeV scale. Introducing a new Z_2 parity in the…
We propose a gauged $U(1)_{B-L}$ extension of the standard model (SM) to explain simultaneously the light neutrino masses and dark matter (DM). The generation of neutrino masses occurs through a variant of type-II seesaw mechanism in which…
A new vector dark matter (DM) scenario in the context of the gauge-Higgs unification (GHU) is proposed. The DM particle is identified with an electric-charge neutral component in an $SU(2)_L$ doublet vector field with the same quantum…
The B-L Supersymmetric Standard Model with Inverse Seesaw (BLSSM-IS) extends the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) by incorporating a gauged B-L symmetry, right-handed neutrinos and an additional neutral gauge boson Z'. Searches…
In this work, we study a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson (pNGB) dark matter model extended with a real scalar. The dark sector is assumed to be feebly coupled with the standard model (SM) via a Higgs portal, so that the pNGB dark matter is…
Pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons (pNGBs) are attractive dark matter (DM) candidates, since they couple to the Standard Model (SM) predominantly through derivative interactions. Thereby they naturally evade the strong existing limits inferred…
A simple model for magnetic inelastic dark matter (MiDM), which is a minimal extension of the standard model with right-handed neutrinos ($N_R$), a singly charged scalar ($S$) and a vector-like charged fermion ($E$), has been presented. In…
