abstract

We study an extension of the Standard Model (SM) in which two copies of the SM scalar $SU(2)$ doublet which do not acquire a Vacuum Expectation Value (VEV), and hence are \textit{inert}, are added to the scalar sector. We allow for CP-violation in the \textit{inert} sector, where the lightest \textit{inert} state is protected from decaying to SM particles through the conservation of a $Z_2$ symmetry. The lightest neutral particle from the \textit{inert} sector, which has a mixed CP-charge due to CP-violation, is hence a Dark Matter (DM) candidate. We discuss the new regions of DM relic density opened up by CP-violation, and compare our results to the CP-conserving limit and the Inert Doublet Model (IDM). We constrain the parameter space of the CP-violating model using recent results from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and DM direct and indirect detection experiments.

  1. Inert dark matter in three Higgs doublet model: a blind spot narrative

    hep-ph 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    In a Z3 x Z2-symmetric three-Higgs-doublet model with one inert doublet, the tree-level dark matter-nucleon scattering cross-section can vanish in a blind spot set by the dark sector mass splitting.
