Abstract
Abstract We propose a new viable outlook to the mixing between a singlet and a doublet leptonic dark sector fields. This choice relaxes the dark matter (DM) search constraints on the quintessential scalar singlet DM as well as presents new opportunities for its detection in the lab. The mixing produces an arbitrary mass difference between the two components of the extra doublet in a gauge-invariant way, without introducing any new scale of electroweak symmetry breaking in the theory. It also provides a useful handle to distinguish between the dark sector particles of different isospins, which is a challenging task other-wise. As the dark leptons coannihilate non-trivially, the mixing effectively enhances the viable parameter space for the relic density constraint. In low DM mass regime, our analysis shows that with a non-zero mixing, it is possible to relax the existing indirect search bounds on the upper limit of the DM-Standard Model coupling. From the analysis of the $$ 3\tau +{E}_T^{\mathrm{miss}} $$ 3 τ + E T miss and $$ \mathrm{\ell}\tau +{E}_T^{\mathrm{miss}} $$ ℓ τ + E T miss channels for LHC at $$ \sqrt{s} $$ s = 13 TeV, we show that one ensures the presence of the mixing parameter between the dark sector particles of the theory by looking at the peak and tail positions of the kinematic distributions. Even with a tweak in the values of other free parameters within the viable parameter region, the distinct peak and tail positions of the kinematic distributions remains a constant feature of the model. While both the channels present us the opportunity to detect the mixing signature at the LHC/HL-LHC, the former gives better results in terms of a larger region of mixing parameter. From the fiducial cross section, the projected statistical significance for the integrated luminosity, $$ \mathcal{L} $$ L = 3 ab−1, are shown for a combined parameter region obeying all the existing constraints, where there is the best possibility to detect such a signature.
