Right-handed neutrino dark matter, neutrino masses, and non-standard cosmology in a 2HDM

Abstract: We explore the dark matter phenomenology of a weak-scale right-handed neutrino in the context of a Two Higgs Doublet Model. The expected signal at direct detection experiments is different from the usual spin-independent and spin-dependent classification since the scattering with quarks depends on the dark matter spin. The dark matter relic density is set by thermal freeze-out and in the presence of non-standard cosmology, where an Abelian gauge symmetry is key for the dark matter production mechanism. We sho… Show more

“…There are other interesting ways to successfully untie the annihilation rate to the scattering rate which are outside the scope of secluded DM, but we refer the reader to refs. [37][38][39]. We highlight that there are several secluded DM constructions in the literature, involving dark photons [35,36,[40][41][42][43], heavy vector bosons [44][45][46] even scalar fields [47][48][49] (see [50] for other possibilities).…”

“…Neutrinoless double beta decay is an important test for Physics beyond the Standard Model; the investigation of this process allows for studying the possible Majorana nature of the neutrino and the possible violation of the Leptonic quantum number [1,2]. In particular, the Seesaw models provide a mechanism to generate small neutrino masses (see, e.g., [3]); moreover, both the problem of baryogenesis [4] and some Dark Matter (DM) candidates [5][6][7] can be addressed.…”
