Boundary localized terms in universal extra-dimensional models through a dark matter perspective

Abstract: In universal extra dimension (UED) models with one compactified extra dimension, a Z 2 symmetry, termed KK parity, ensures the stability of the lightest Kaluza-Klein particle (LKP) which could be a viable dark matter candidate. This symmetry leads to two fixed points. In nonminimal versions of UED boundary-localized (kinetic or mass) terms (BLT) for different fields are included at these fixed points and KK parity may be violated. However, BLTs with same strength at both points induce a new Z 2 symmetry which … Show more

“…Depending on the parameter values, the LKP can be the level-1 photon (B 1 ), the level-1 Z-boson ( W has too small DM abundance thus is not favored [63]. The expected signal rate of KK DM with, e.g., Xenon nuclei is still well below the existing limits set by XENON100 for spin-independent scattering [63]. Higgs DM in UED models is discussed in Ref.…”

“…For completeness first we describe the general set-up of nmUED with BLTs and as we proceed we point out how to revert to mUED. For a more detailed discussion of the model see [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28].…”

“…Therefore nmUED has a rich phenomenology compared to the mUED scenario thanks to the presence of the BLT parameters. Some of the recent studies on the phenomenology of the BLTs can be found in [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. Now, an important aspect of SM is the absence of flavour changing neutral current (FCNC) interactions at the tree-level.…”

“…Various phenomenological studies in the framework of nmUED have been made to constrain non-minimality parameters from the perspective of electroweak observables [13], S, T and U parameters [11,15], relic density [16,17], measurement of decay width of Z-boson to a pair of b-quarks [18], SM Higgs boson production and decay [19] and from the LHC experiments [20,21].…”
