摘要
We consider fermionic (Dirac or Majorana) cold thermal relic dark-matter coupling to standard-model particles through the effective dimension-5 Higgs portal operators Lambda(-1) O-DM center dot (HH)-H-dagger, where O-DM is an admixture of scalar (chi) over bar chi and pseudoscalar (chi) over bari gamma 5 chi DM operators. Utilizing the relic abundance requirement to fix the couplings, we consider direct detection and invisible Higgs width constraints, and map out the remaining allowed parameter space of dark-matter mass and the admixture of scalar and pseudoscalar couplings. We emphasize a subtlety which has not previously been carefully studied in the context of the EFT approach, in which an effect arising due to electroweak symmetry breaking can cause a naively pure pseudoscalar coupling to induce a scalar coupling at higher order, which has important implications for direct detection bounds. We provide some comments on indirect detection bounds and collider searches.
