    We present a detailed analysis on the possible maximal value of the muon (g-2) (= 2 a_mu) within the context of effective SUSY models with R parity conservation. First of all, the mixing among the second and the third family sleptons can contribute at one loop level to the a_mu(SUSY) and tau -> mu gamma simultaneously. One finds that the a_mu(SUSY) can be as large as (10-20)*10^-10 for any tan beta, imposing the upper limit on the tau -> mu gamma branching ratio. Furthermore, the two-loop Barr-Zee type contributions to a_mu(SUSY) can be significant for large tan beta, if a stop is light and mu and A_t are large enough (O(1) TeV). In this case, it is possible to have a_mu(SUSY) upto O(10)*10^-10 without conflicting with tau -> l gamma. We conclude that the possible maximal value for a_mu(SUSY) is about 20*10^-10 for any tan beta. Therefore the BNL experiment on the muon a_mu can exclude the effective SUSY models only if the measured deviation is larger than \sim 30*10^-10.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure

    Singlet portal extensions of the standard seesaw models to dark sector with local dark symmetry: An alternative to the new minimal standard model

    Full text link
    Assuming dark matter is absolutely stable due to unbroken dark gauge symmetry and singlet operators are portals to the dark sector, we present a simple extension of the standard seesaw model that can accommodate all the cosmological observations as well as terrestrial experiments available as of now, including leptogenesis, extra dark radiation of ∼0.08\sim 0.08 (resulting in Neff=3.130N_{\rm eff} = 3.130 the effective number of neutrino species), Higgs inflation, small and large scale structure formation, and current relic density of scalar DM (XX). The Higgs signal strength is equal to one as in the SM for unbroken U(1)XU(1)_X case with a scalar dark matter, but it could be less than one independent of decay channels if the dark matter is a dark sector fermion or if U(1)XU(1)_X is spontaneously broken, because of a mixing with a new neutral scalar boson in the models.Comment: Presented at the 9th PATRAS Workshop on Axions, WIMPs and WISP

    Invisible Higgs Decay Width vs. Dark Matter Direct Detection Cross Section in Higgs Portal Dark Matter Models

    The correlation between the invisible Higgs branching ratio (BhinvB_h^{\rm inv} ) vs. dark matter (DM) direct detection (ΟƒpSI\sigma_p^{\rm SI}) in Higgs portal DM models is usually presented in the effective field theory (EFT) framework. This is fine for singlet scalar DM, but not in the singlet fermion DM (SFDM) or vector DM (VDM) models. In this paper, we derive the explicit expressions for this correlation within UV completions of SFDM and VDM models with Higgs portals, and discuss the limitation of the EFT approach. We show that there are at least two additional hidden parameter in ΟƒpSI\sigma_p^{\rm SI} in the UV completions: the singlet-like scalar mass m2m_2 and its mixing angle Ξ±\alpha with the SM Higgs boson (hh). In particular, if the singlet-like scalar is lighter than the SM Higgs boson (m2<mhcos⁑α/1+cos⁑2Ξ±m_2 < m_h \cos \alpha / \sqrt{1 + \cos^2 \alpha}), the collider bound becomes weaker than the one based on EFT.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figure
