We analyze a simple extension of the Standard Model (SM) obtained by adding a complex singlet to the scalar sector (cxSM). We show that the cxSM can contain one or two viable cold dark matter candidates and analyze the conditions on the…
The electroweak Higgs doublets are identified as components of a vector multiplet in a higher dimensional supersymmetric field theory. We construct a minimal model in 6D where the electroweak $SU(2) \otimes U(1)$ gauge group is extended to…
