We study two models of scalar dark matter from "large" electroweak multiplets with isospin 5/2 (n=6 members) and 7/2 (n=8), whose scalar potentials preserve a $Z_2$ symmetry. Because of large annihilation cross sections due to electroweak…

Models with scalar triplets can have a large impact on the electroweak precision S-parameter and have to be dealt "with extreme prejudice". Such models, and in particular the Georgi-Machacek (GM) model, involve a complex triplet scalar…
