Potential for Definitive Discovery of a 70 GeV Dark Matter WIMP with Only Second-Order Gauge Couplings

We examine the singlet-doublet fermionic dark matter model, where the non-thermal production of the dark matter in light of a non-standard cosmology demands a significantly large interaction rate than the typical radiation-dominated Universe. Despite being a model of freeze-in light dark matter and heavy mediator, the characteristic long-lived particle searches at the collider experiment and the displaced vertex signature do not help in probing such a dark sector since this non-standard interaction mandates nearly prompt decay. We make a counterproposal to probe such signal with di-fat-jets generated from the boosted decays of massive vector bosons and Standard Model Higgs, along with the substantial missing transverse momentum to probe the dark matter at LHC. Interestingly, substructure variables associated with these fat jets have an additional handle to tackle the extensive QCD background as it encodes implicit footmarks of their origin. We adopt the multivariate analysis with the booted decision tree to constrain the measured relic density allowed parameter space of dark matter in the presence of the modified cosmological scenario. Our study shows how the non-trivial expansion affects dark matter production in the early Universe and alters the required search strategies at colliders. This probe provides the best discovery prospect at the HL-LHC for extended parameter space now opened up in the dark sector.
