The inability to predict neutrino masses and the existence of the dark matter are two essential shortcomings of the Standard Model. The Higgs Triplet Model provides an elegant resolution of neutrino masses via the seesaw mechanism. We show here that introducing vectorlike leptons in the model also provides a resolution to the problem of dark matter. We investigate constraints, including the invisible decay width of the Higgs boson and the electroweak precision variables, and impose restrictions on model parameters. We analyze the effect of the relic density constraint on the mass and Yukawa coupling of dark matter. We also calculate the cross sections for indirect and direct dark matter detection and show our model predictions for the neutrino and muon fluxes from the Sun, and the restrictions they impose on the parameter space. With the addition of vectorlike leptons, the model is completely consistent with dark matter constraints, in addition to improving electroweak precision and doubly charged mass restrictions, which are rendered consistent with present experimental data.
We find if a Higgs triplet with hypercharge has a special dimension-6 operator with the standard model Higgs doublet, i.e. a square of the trilinear triplet-doublet coupling, its scalar(pseudo-scalar) component can obtain a small quadratic term while its pseudo-scalar(scalar) and charged-scalar components can hold their masses heavy enough. Such split Higgs triplet can spontaneously develop a small vacuum expectation value to realize a Majorana neutrino mass generation without causing any high-dimensional lepton number violations including the well-known Weinberg dimension-5 operator. Alternat…
We perform a detailed study of scalar dark matter with triplet Higgs extensions of the Standard Model in order to explain the cosmic ray electron and positron excesses reported by AMS-02 and DAMPE. A detailed analysis of AMS-02 positron excess reveals that for different orderings (normal, inverted and quasi-degenerate) of neutrino mass, the hybrid triplet Higgs portal framework is more favored with respect to the single triplet Higgs portal for TeV scale dark matter. We also show that the resonant peak and continuous excess in DAMPE cosmic ray data can be well explained with the hybrid triplet…
We examine an extension of the SM Higgs sector by a Higgs triplet taking into consideration the Higgs-like particle discovery at the LHC with mass around 125 GeV. We evaluate the bounds on the scalar potential through the unitarity of the scattering-matrix. Considering with and without $\Z_2$-symmetry on the extra triplet, we derive constraints on the parameter space. We identify the region of the parameter space that corresponds to the stability and metastability of the electroweak vacuum. We also show that at large field values the scalar potential of this model is suitable to explain inflat…
Phenomenology in the Higgs Triplet Model with the A_4 Symmetry
本文讨论了在最简单的A_4对称Higgs三重态模型中双荷和单荷希格斯玻色子玻色子（SU（2）_L-三重态场）的唯象。这些希格斯玻色子的质量本征态是明确地从希格斯势得到的。结果表明，它们衰变成一对轻子具有独特的味道结构，可以在大型强子对撞机测试，如果他们的一些质量低于TeV规模。可以自然地获得τ到bar（mu）e e e和τ到bar（e）mu mu的相当大的衰减率，而在该模型中几乎禁止其他τ到l l'l“”、mu到bar（e）e e e和l到l' gamma。这些希格斯玻色子玻色子的贡献中微子的非标准相互作用也被认为是。
The extension of the Standard Model (SM) with two Higgs triplets offers an appealing way to account for both tiny Majorana neutrino masses via the type-II seesaw mechanism and the cosmological matter-antimatter asymmetry via the triplet leptogenesis. In this paper, we classify all possible accidental symmetries in the scalar potential of the two-Higgs-triplet model (2HTM). Based on the bilinear-field formalism, we show that the maximal symmetry group of the 2HTM potential is ${\rm SO(4)}$ and eight types of accidental symmetries in total can be identified. Furthermore, we examine the impact of…
One- and two-zero textures for the flavor neutrino mass matrix have been successful in explaining mixing in the neutrino sector. Conservatively, six cases of one-zero textures and seven cases of two-zero textures are compatible with observations. We show that one case may be the most natural in the one- and two-zero textures schemes if tiny neutrino masses are generated by the type-II seesaw mechanism in triplet Higgs models.
We analyse the possibility of charge breaking minima developing in the Higgs triplet model, and under what conditions they are deeper than charge-preserving ones. Analytical expressions relating the depth of minima of different types are deduced. A global symmetry of the model leads to increased stability for charge-preserving vacua. However, if that symmetry is broken by a soft term, deeper charge-breaking minima may occur more easily. We identify the vev configurations most likely to produce charge breaking minima.
