A double right-handed U(1) gauge extension generates the Standard Model fermion mass hierarchy at tree and loop levels and stabilizes a viable scalar singlet dark matter particle consistent with relic density and direct detection bounds.

abstract
The Inert Doublet Model (IDM), a two Higgs extension of the Standard Model with an unbroken $Z_2$ symmetry, is a simple and yet rich model of dark matter. We present a systematic analysis of the dark matter abundance and investigate the potentialities for direct and gamma indirect detection. We show that the model should be within the range of future experiments, like GLAST and ZEPLIN. The lightest stable scalar in the IDM is a perfect example, or archetype of a weakly interacting massive particle.

No significant excess found; new exclusion limits reach m_H = 108 GeV for m_H - m_A = 78 GeV in the Inert Doublet Model.
Fermi LAT data on mini-spikes around stellar-mass black holes rules out substantial regions of Inert Doublet Model dark matter parameter space, especially at multi-TeV masses.
LHC mono-W/Z searches with a new channel-separation method can exclude large ranges of neutral and charged mass splittings in the 70-75 GeV IDM dark matter scenario that fits astrophysical excesses.
Numerical scans in the minimal scotogenic model indicate that approximate neutrino texture structures emerge dynamically from dark matter and lepton flavor violation consistency conditions.
Computes tree-level two-body decays of heavy scalars in GNM and pseudoscalar lifetime in IDM limit.
