Description of the model

This is simplified dark matter models for NLO. Our lagrangian consists of different types of DM:

• Xr (real scalar DM)
• Xc (complex scalar DM)
• Xd (Dirac spinor DM)
• Xm (Majorana spinor DM) (to be done.)
• ...

and different types of mediators:

• s-channel
  • Y0 (spin-0)
  • Y1 (spin-1)
  • Y2 (spin-2) (to be done.)
  • ...

• t-channel (to be done.)

One can find the model lagrangian in the note.

Model files

• DMsimp_UFO.zip: the s-channel model files in UFO format
• TO BE DONE: include the s-channel+EW model files in UFO format

NLO process samples for s-channel mediators

Remember that "scalar" below means scalar/pseudoscalar and "vector" means vector/axial-vector.

Version updates

*2015.06.11 - v0.1_alpha: alpha version.
*2015.06.16 - v0.2_alpha: alpha version : deleted “DMT” coupling (for spin-2 mediator model) from couplings_order.py. Added onlytops restriction to only allow vector and scalar mediators coupling to tops. (Thanks to Uli Haisch for testing).
