Gauged $U(1)_{L_μ- L_τ}$ model in light of muon $g-2$ anomaly, neutrino mass and dark matter phenomenology (1607.04046v1)

Abstract: Gauged $U(1){L\mu - L_\tau}$ model has been advocated for a long time in light of muon $g-2$ anomaly, which is a more than $3\sigma$ discrepancy between the experimental measurement and the standard model prediction. We augment this model with three right-handed neutrinos $(N_e, N_\mu, N_\tau)$ and a vector-like singlet fermion $(\chi)$ to explain simultaneously the non-zero neutrino mass and dark matter content of the Universe, while satisfying anomalous muon $g-2$ constraints. It is shown that in a large parameter space of this model we can explain positron excess, observed at PAMELA, Fermi-LAT and AMS-02, through dark matter annihilation, while satisfying the relic density and direct detection constraints.
