abstract

The 79-string IceCube search for dark matter in the Sun public data is used to test Secluded Dark Matter models. No significant excess over background is observed and constraints on the parameters of the models are derived. Moreover, the search is also used to constrain the dark photon model in the region of the parameter space with dark photon masses between 0.22 and $\sim$ 1 GeV and a kinetic mixing parameter $\varepsilon \sim 10^{-9}$, which remains unconstrained. These are the first constraints of dark photons from neutrino telescopes. It is expected that neutrino telescopes will be efficient tools to test dark photons by means of different searches in the Sun, Earth and Galactic Center, which could complement constraints from direct detection, accelerators, astrophysics and indirect detection with other messengers, such as gamma rays or antiparticles.

Heavy singlet fermionic dark matter with $Z_4$ symmetry

hep-ph · 2026-06-10 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

In the Z4-symmetric singlet fermionic DM model with a new scalar, viable heavy-DM parameter space in the secluded regime permits non-negligible Higgs mixing while satisfying relic density and direct detection bounds.
