An update on the two singlet Dark Matter model

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2021-06-21 v2

Abstract

We revisit the two real singlet extension of the Standard Model with a Z2×Z2Z_2\times Z_2^\prime symmetry. One of the singlet scalars S2S_2, by virtue of an unbroken Z2Z_2^\prime symmetry, plays the role of a stable dark matter candidate. The other scalar S1S_1, with spontaneously broken Z2Z_2-symmetry, mixes with the SM Higgs boson and acts as the scalar mediator. We analyze the model by putting in the entire set of theoretical and recent experimental constraints. The latest bounds from direct detection Xenon1T experiment severely restricts the allowed region of parameter space of couplings. To ensure the dark matter satisfies the relic abundance criterion, we rely on the Breit-Wigner enhanced annihilation cross-section. Further, we study the viability of explaining the observed gamma-ray excess in the galactic center in this model with a dark matter of mass in the 3651\sim 36-51 GeV window and present our conclusions.
