IDM Benchmarks for the LHC and Future Colliders

We present cross-section expectations for various processes and collider options, for benchmark scenarios of the Inert Doublet Model, a Two Higgs Doublet Model with a dark matter candidate. The proposed scenarios are consistent with current dark matter constraints, including the most recent bounds from the XENON1T experiment and relic density, as well as with known collider and low-energy limits. These benchmarks, chosen in earlier work for studies at e(+)e(-) colliders, exhibit a variety of kinematic features that should be explored at current and future runs of the LHC. We provide cross sections for all relevant production processes at 13 TeV, 27 TeV and 100 TeV proton collider, as well as for a possible 10 TeV and 30 TeV muon collider.

Automated summary

The study presents benchmark scenarios for a Two Higgs Doublet Model with a dark matter candidate, which are consistent with current dark matter constraints and known collider limits. Cross sections for relevant production processes at different proton colliders and a possible muon collider are provided for exploration at the LHC.
