Dark origins of matter-antimatter asymmetry

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

In a non-minimal Higgs framework, we present a novel mechanism in which the CP violating dark particles only interact with the SM through the gauge bosons, primarily the ZZ boson. Such ZZ-portal dark CP violation is realised in the regions of the parameter space where Higgs-mediated (co)annihilation processes are sub-dominant and have negligible contributions to the DM relic density. We show that such ZZ-portal CP violating DM can still thermalise and satisfy all experimental and observational bounds and discuss implications of such phenomena for electroweak baryogenesis.
