A pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson (pNGB) is an attractive candidate for dark matter (DM) due to the simple evasion of the current severe limits of DM direct detection experiments. One of the pNGB DM models has been proposed based on a {it gauged} $U(1)_{B-L}$ symmetry. The pNGB has long enough lifetime to be a DM and thermal relic abundance of pNGB DM can be fit with the observed value against the constraints on the DM decays from the cosmic-ray observations. The pNGB DM model can be embedded into an $SO(10)$ pNGB DM model in the framework of an $SO(10)$ grand unified theory, whose $SO(10)$ is broken to the Pati-Salam gauge group at the unified scale, and further to the Standard Model gauge group at the intermediate scale. Unlike the previous pNGB DM model, the parameters such as the gauge coupling constants of $U(1)_{B-L}$, the kinetic mixing parameter of between $U(1)_Y$ and $U(1)_{B-L}$ are determined by solving the renormalization group equations for gauge coupling constants with appropriate matching conditions. From the constraints of the DM lifetime and gamma-ray observations, the pNGB DM mass must be less than $mathcal{O}(100)$$,$GeV. We find that the thermal relic abundance can be consistent with all the constraints when the DM mass is close to half of the CP even Higg masses.
Having so far only indirect evidence for the existence of Dark Matter a plethora of experiments aims at direct detection of Dark Matter through the scattering of Dark Matter particles off atomic nuclei. For the correct interpretation and identificati
We outline a scenario where both the Higgs and a complex scalar dark matter candidate arise as the pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons of breaking a global $SO(7)$ symmetry to $SO(6)$. The novelty of our construction is that the symmetry partners of the St
The idea to have Higgs doublets as pseudo Nambu-Goldstone (PsNG) multiplet is examined in the framework of supersymmetric E_6 unified theory. We show that extra PsNG multiplets other than the expected Higgs doublets necessarily appear in the E_6 case
We investigate the potential stochastic gravitational waves from first-order electroweak phase transitions in a model with pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone dark matter and two Higgs doublets. The dark matter candidate can naturally evade direct detection bound
Pseudo-Goldstone dark matter coupled to the Standard Model via the Higgs portal offers an attractive framework for phenomenologically viable pseudo-scalar dark matter. It enjoys natural suppression of the direct detection rate due to the vanishing of
