Abstract
We revisit the Higgs portal vector dark matter model including a hidden sector Higgs field that generates the mass of the vector dark matter. The model becomes renormalizable and has two scalar bosons, the mixtures of the standard model (SM) Higgs and the hidden sector Higgs bosons. The strong bound from direct detection such as XENON100 is evaded due to the cancellation mechanism between the contributions from two scalar bosons. As a result, the model becomes still viable in large range of dark matter mass, contrary to some claims in the literature. The Higgs properties are also affected, the signal strengths for the Higgs boson search being universally suppressed relative to the SM value, which could be tested at the LHC in the future.

Search for invisible decays of a Higgs boson produced through vector boson fusion in proton-proton collisions at root s=13 TeV

Albert M. Sirunyan, +2301 more
- 10 Jun 2019 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a search for invisible decays of a Higgs boson via vector boson fusion is performed using proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC in 2016 at a center-of-mass energy root s = 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9fb(-1).

Searches for invisible decays of the Higgs boson in pp collisions at √s = 7, 8, and 13 TeV

Vardan Khachatryan, +2328 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an upper bound on the branching fraction of the Higgs boson decay to invisible particles, as a function of the assumed production cross-sections, was established, and the results were also interpreted in the context of Higgs-portal dark matter models.

Toward (finally!) ruling out Z and Higgs mediated dark matter models

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the subset of WIMP models in which the dark matter annihilates in the early universe through couplings to either the Standard Model Z or the Higgs boson, and find that the overwhelming majority of these dark matter candidates are already ruled out by existing experiments.

Dark Matter through the Higgs portal

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review scenarios in which the particles that account for the Dark Matter (DM) in the Universe interact only through their couplings with the Higgs sector of the theory, the so-called Higgs-portal models.

Dark matter from a classically scale-invariant S U ( 3 ) X

TL;DR: In this article, a classically scale-invariant extension of the Standard Model was studied, in which the dark matter and electroweak scales are generated through the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism.

Weak Interactions with Lepton-Hadron Symmetry

TL;DR: In this paper, a model of weak interactions was proposed in which the currents are constructed out of four basic quark fields and interact with a charged massive vector boson, and it was shown that the leading divergences do not violate any strong-interaction symmetry.

Dark Matter Results from 225 Live Days of XENON100 Data

TL;DR: A search for particle dark matter with the XENON100 experiment, operated at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso for 13 months during 2011 and 2012, has yielded no evidence for dark matter interactions.
