The real singlet scalar dark matter model

We present an undated comprehensive analysis for the simplest dark matter model in which a real singlet scalar with a $Z_2$ symmetry is introduced to extend the standard model. According to the observed dark matter abundance, we predict the dark matter direct and indirect detection cross sections for the whole parameter space. The Breit-Wigner resonance effect has been considered to calculate the thermally averaged annihilation cross section. It is found that three regions can be excluded by the current direct and indirect dark matter search experiments. In addition, we also discuss the implication of this model for the Higgs searches at colliders.
