130 GeV gamma-ray line and enhancement of hγγ in the Higgs triplet model plus a scalar dark matter

Abstract

With a discrete Z2 symmetry being imposed, we introduce a real singlet scalar S to the Higgs triplet model with the motivation of explaining the tentative evidence for a spectral feature at Eγ = 130 GeV in the Fermi LAT data. The model can naturally satisfy the experimental constraints of the dark matter relic density and direct detection data from Xenon100. The doubly charged and one charged scalars can enhance the annihilation cross section of SSγγ via the one-loop contributions, and give the negligible contributions to the relic density. <σv>SSγγ for mS=130 GeV can reach (1)×10-27 cm3 s-1 for the small charged scalar masses and the coupling constant of larger than 1. Besides, this model also predict a second photon peak at 114 GeV from the annihilation SSγ Z, and the cross section is approximately 0.76 times that of SSγ γ, which is below the upper limit reported by Fermi LAT. Finally, the light charged scalars can enhance LHC diphoton Higgs rate, and make it to be consistent with the experimental data reported by ATLAS and CMS.
