Mitigating direct detection bounds in non-minimal Higgs portal scalar dark matter models

Abstract The minimal Higgs portal dark matter model is increasingly in tension with recent results form direct detection experiments like LUX and XENON. In this paper we make a systematic study of simple extensions of the ℤ 2 $$ {\mathbb{Z}}_2 $$ stabilized singlet scalar Higgs portal scenario in te...
