We present a detailed study of the non-abelian vector dark matter candidate $W^prime$ with a MeV-GeV low mass range, accompanied by a dark photon $A^prime$ and a dark $Z^prime$ of similar masses, in the context of a gauged two-Higgs-doublet model with the hidden gauge group that has the same structure as the Standard Model electroweak gauge group. The stability of dark matter is protected by an accidental discrete $Z_2$ symmetry ($h$-parity) which was usually imposed ad hoc by hand. We examine the model by taking into account various experimental constraints including dark photon searches at NA48, NA64, E141, $ u$-CAL, BaBar and LHCb experiments, electroweak precision data from LEP, relic density from Planck satellite, direct (indirect) detection of dark matter from CRESST-III, DarkSide-50, XENON1T (Fermi-LAT), and collider physics from the LHC. The theoretical requirements of bounded from below of the scalar potential and tree level perturbative unitarity of the scalar sector are also imposed. The viable parameter space of the model consistent with all the constraints is exhibited. While a dark $Z^prime$ can be the dominant contribution in the relic density due to resonant annihilation of dark matter, a dark photon is crucial to dark matter direct detection. We also demonstrate that the parameter space can be further probed by various sub-GeV direct dark matter experimental searches at CDEX, NEWS-G and SuperCDMS in the near future.

We consider extension of the standard model $SU(2)_l times SU(2)_h times U(1)$ where the first two families of quarks and leptons transform according to the $SU(2)_l$ group and the third family according to the $SU(2)_h$ group. In this approach, the largeness of top-quark mass is associated with the large vacuum expectation value of the corresponding Higgs field. The model predicts almost degenerate heavy $W$ and $Z$ bosons with non-universal couplings, and extra Higgs bosons. We present in detail the symmetry breaking mechanism, and carry out the subsequent phenomenology of the gauge sector. We compare the model with electroweak precision data, and conclude that the extra gauge bosons and the Higgs bosons whose masses lie in the TeV range, can be discovered at the LHC.
Motivated by the recent PAMELA and ATIC data, one is led to a scenario with heavy vector-like dark matter in association with a hidden $U(1)_X$ sector below GeV scale. Realizing this idea in the context of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking (GMSB), a heavy scalar component charged under $U(1)_X$ is found to be a good dark matter candidate which can be searched for direct scattering mediated by the Higgs boson and/or by the hidden gauge boson. The latter turns out to put a stringent bound on the kinetic mixing parameter between $U(1)_X$ and $U(1)_Y$: $theta lesssim 10^{-6}$. For the typical range of model parameters, we find that the decay rates of the ordinary lightest neutralino into hidden gauge boson/gaugino and photon/gravitino are comparable, and the former decay mode leaves displaced vertices of lepton pairs and missing energy with distinctive length scale larger than 20 cm for invariant lepton pair mass below 0.5 GeV. An unsatisfactory aspect of our model is that the Sommerfeld effect cannot raise the galactic dark matter annihilation by more than 60 times for the dark matter mass below TeV.
We suggest a dark matter scenario which could contribute the possible anomaly observed by Fermi-LAT $gamma$-ray space telescope. It is based on the model recently proposed by Weinberg. In our scenario the gamma-ray line signal comes from the fermionic dark matter ($M_{rm DM}=214 $ GeV) annihilating into two light scalars with mass around 500 MeV which in turn decay into two neutral pions. Finally the pions can decay into two 130 GeV photons. The strong constraint from the direct detection leaves only the channel of the dark matter annihilation into two light scalars for both the relic density and the Fermi-LAT gamma-ray line signal. The resulting gamma-ray spectrum is rather broad and does not fit to the data perfectly, but the data also show there may be fluctuation in the spectrum. There is no associated $Z$-boson or Higgs boson production contrary to most other works where the signal comes from the loops of charged particles. The annihilation into the other SM particles are highly suppressed due to the small mixing from the direct detection. Future experiments with more data will give more clues on the possible scenarios.
We present a particle physics model to explain the observed enhancement in the Xenon-1T data at an electron recoil energy of 2.5 keV. The model is based on a $U(1)$ extension of the Standard Model where the dark sector consists of two essentially mass degenerate Dirac fermions in the sub-GeV region with a small mass splitting interacting with a dark photon. The dark photon is unstable and decays before the big bang nucleosynthesis, which leads to the dark matter constituted of two essentially mass degenerate Dirac fermions. The Xenon-1T excess is computed via the inelastic exothermic scattering of the heavier dark fermion from a bound electron in xenon to the lighter dark fermion producing the observed excess events in the recoil electron energy. The model can be tested with further data from Xenon-1T and in future experiments such as SuperCDMS.
The spin-charge-family theory predicts the existence of the fourth family to the observed three. The $4 times 4$ mass matrices --- determined by the nonzero vacuum expectation values of the two triplet scalars, the gauge fields of the two groups of $widetilde{SU}(2)$ determining family quantum numbers, and by the contributions of the dynamical fields of the two scalar triplets and the three scalar singlets with the family members quantum numbers ($tau^{alpha}=(Q, Q,Y)$) --- manifest the symmetry $widetilde{SU}(2) times widetilde{SU}(2) times U(1)$. All scalars carry the weak and the hyper charge of the standard model higgs field ($pm frac{1}{2},mp frac{1}{2}$, respectively). It is demonstrated, using the massless spinor basis, that the symmetry of the $4times4$ mass matrices remains $SU(2) times SU(2) times U(1)$ in all loop corrections, and it is discussed under which conditions this symmetry is kept under all corrections, that is with the corrections induced by the repetition of the nonzero vacuum expectation values included.
