Dark matter elastic scattering through Higgs loops

Dark matter elastic scattering through Higgs loops

We consider a complete list of simplified models in which Majorana dark matter particles annihilate at tree level to $hh$ or $hZ$ final states and calculate the loop-induced elastic scattering cross section with nuclei in each case. Expressions for these annihilation and elastic scattering cross sections are provided and can …
