Re-derived overclosure bound for the inert doublet model
Abstract We apply a formalism accounting for thermal effects (such as modified Sommerfeld effect; Salpeter correction; decohering scatterings; dissociation of bound states), to one of the simplest WIMP-like dark matter models, associated with an “inert” Higgs doublet. A broad temperature range T ∼ M...
