New chiral fermions, a new gauge interaction, Dirac neutrinos, and dark matter

Journal Article de Gouvea, Andre ; Hernandez, Daniel - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

Here, we propose that all light fermionic degrees of freedom, including the Standard Model (SM) fermions and all possible light beyond-the-standard-model fields, are chiral with respect to some spontaneously broken abelian gauge symmetry. Hypercharge, for example, plays this role for the SM fermions. We introduce a new symmetry, U(1) ν , for all new light fermionic states. Anomaly cancellations mandate the existence of several new fermion fields with nontrivial U(1)_ν charges. We develop a concrete model of this type, for which we show that (i) some fermions remain massless after U(1)_ν breaking — similar to SM neutrinos — and (ii)more »« less

Thermal dark matter through the Dirac neutrino portal

Journal Article Batell, Brian ; Han, Tao ; McKeen, David ; ... - Physical Review D

We study a simple model of thermal dark matter annihilating to standard model neutrinos via the neutrino portal. A (pseudo-)Dirac sterile neutrino serves as a mediator between the visible and the dark sectors, while an approximate lepton number symmetry allows for a large neutrino Yukawa coupling and, in turn, efficient dark matter annihilation. The dark sector consists of two particles, a Dirac fermion and complex scalar, charged under a symmetry that ensures the stability of the dark matter. A generic prediction of the model is a sterile neutrino with a large active-sterile mixing angle that decays primarily invisibly. We derivemore »« less

Composite neutrinos and the QCD axion: Baryogenesis, dark matter, small Dirac neutrino masses, and vanishing neutron electric dipole moment

Journal Article Chakraborty, Sabyasachi ; Jung, Tae Hyun ; Okui, Takemichi - Physical Review D

We consider a chiral gauge theory from which light composite Dirac neutrinos dynamically emerge, augmented by a QCD axion to solve the strong CP problem. We show that an interplay between the composite sector and the axion can also simultaneously lead to successful baryogenesis and generate a correct dark matter abundance via “cogenesis” without contradicting present constraints. We predict ΔN_eff ≥ 0.14 andmore »« less

keV warm dark matter via the supersymmetric Higgs portal

Journal Article McDonald, John ; Sahu, Narendra - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

Warm dark matter (WDM) may resolve the possible conflict between observed galaxy halos and the halos produced in cold dark matter simulations. Here, we present an extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model to include WDM by adding a gauge singlet fermion, {chi}, with a portal-like coupling to the minimal supersymmetric standard model Higgs doublets. This model has the property that the dark matter is necessarily warm. In the case where M{sub {chi}} is mainly due to electroweak symmetry breaking, the {chi} mass is completely determined by its relic density and the reheating temperature T{sub R}. For 10{sup 2} GeVmore »« less

Liquid xenon scintillation measurements and pulse shape discrimination in the LUX dark matter detector

Journal Article Akerib, D. S. ; Alsum, S. ; Araújo, H. M. ; ... - Physical Review D

Weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) are a leading candidate for dark matter and are expected to produce nuclear recoil (NR) events within liquid xenon time-projection chambers. We present a measurement of the scintillation timing characteristics of liquid xenon in the LUX dark matter detector and develop a pulse shape discriminant to be used for particle identification. To accurately measure the timing characteristics, we develop a template-fitting method to reconstruct the detection times of photons. Analyzing calibration data collected during the 2013–2016 LUX WIMP search, we provide a new measurement of the singlet-to-triplet scintillation ratio for electron recoils (ER) below 46more »« less
