The CDF W-mass, muon g-2, and dark matter in a $U(1)_{L_μ-L_τ}$ model with vector-like leptons

We study the CDF $W$-mass, muon $g-2$, and dark matter observables in a local $U(1)_{L_μ-L_τ}$ model in which the new particles include three vector-like leptons ($E_1,~ E_2,~ N$), a new gauge boson $Z&#39;$, a scalar $S$ (breaking $U(1)_{L_μ-L_τ}$), a scalar dark matter $X_I$ and its partner $X_R$. We find that the CDF $W$-mass disfavors $m_{E_1}= m_{E_2}={m_N}$ or $s_L=s_R=0$ where $s_{L(R)}$ is mixing parameter of left (right)-handed fields of vector-like leptons. A large mass splitting between $E_1$ and $E_2$ is favored when the differences between $s_L$ and $s_R$ becomes small. The muon $g-2$ anomaly can be simultaneously explained for appropriate difference between $s_L$ $(m_{E_1})$ and $s_R$ $(m_{E_2})$, and some regions are excluded by the diphoton signal data of the 125 GeV Higgs. Combined with the CDF $W$-mass, muon $g-2$ anomaly and other relevant constraints, the correct dark matter relic density is mainly obtained in two different scenarios: (i) $X_IX_I\to Z&#39;Z&#39;,~ SS$ for $m_{Z&#39;}(m_S)<m_{X_I}$ and (ii) the co-annihilation processes for $min(m_{E_1},m_{E_2},m_N,m_{X_R})$ closed to $m_{X_I}$. Finally, we use the direct searches for $2\ell+E_T^{miss}$ event at the LHC to constrain the model, and show the allowed mass ranges of the vector-like leptons and dark matter.
