The scalar Singlet-Triplet Dark Matter Model [CL]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1311.1077


We consider a model for cold dark matter, which combines a real scalar singlet and a real scalar $SU(2)_L$ triplet field, both of which are residing in the odd representation of a global $Z_2$ symmetry. The parameter space of the model is constrained by the inferred dark matter abundance from the WMAP and Planck data, the direct dark matter search experiment XENON 100, the Z boson decay width from LEP-I and perturbativity of the coupling parameters. The phenomenology of the remaining parameter space is studied. We find that the model allows for DM masses near the electroweak scale and a variety of decay scenarios.
