Electroweak baryogenesis, dark matter, and dark CP-symmetry
Abstract
With the motivation of explaining the dark matter and achieving the electroweak baryogenesis via the spontaneous CP-violation at high temperature, we propose a complex singlet scalar () extension of the two-Higgs-doublet model respecting a discrete dark CP-symmetry: . The dark CP-symmetry guarantees to be a dark matter candidate on one hand and on the other hand allows to have mixings with the pseudoscalars of the Higgs doublet fields, which play key roles in generating the CP-violation sources needed by the electroweak baryogenesis at high temperature. The universe undergoes multi-step phase transitions, including a strongly first-order electroweak phase transition during which the baryon number is produced. At the present temperature, the observed vacuum is produced and the CP-symmetry is restored so that the stringent electric dipole moment experimental bounds are satisfied. Considering relevant constraints, we study the simple scenario of around the Higgs resonance region, and find that the dark matter relic abundance and the baryon asymmetry can be simultaneously explained. Finally, we briefly discuss the gravitational wave signatures at future space-based detectors and the LHC signatures.
I Introduction
The baryon asymmetry of the universe (BAU) presents one of the major quests for particle cosmology. By the observation based on the Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis, the BAU is pdg2020

where is the baryon number density and is the entropy density. Three necessary Sakharov conditions have to be fulfilled for a dynamical generation of BAU: baryon number changing interactions, non-conservation of C and CP, and departure from thermal equilibrium Sakharov . The electroweak baryogenesis (EWBG) ewbg1 ; ewbg2 provides a promising and attractive mechanism of explaining the BAU since it is testable at the energy frontier by the LHC and at the precision frontier by the electric dipole moment (EDM) experiments. To realize the EWBG, one needs extend the SM to produce sufficient large CP-violation and a strongly first-order electroweak phase transition (EWPT), such as the singlet extension of SM (see e.g. bgs-1 ; bgs-3 ; bgs-4 ; bgs-5 ; bgs-6 ; Beniwal:2018hyi ; Huang:2018aja ; Ghorbani:2017jls ; cao ; huang ; Xie:2020wzn ; Ellis:2022lft ; Lewicki:2021pgr ; Idegawa:2023bkh ; Harigaya:2022ptp ) and the two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) (see e.g. bg2h-1 ; bg2h-2 ; bg2h-3 ; Kanemura:2004ch ; Basler:2017uxn ; Abe:2013qla ; bg2h-5 ; bg2h-4 ; bg2h-6 ; bg2h-7 ; bg2h-8 ; bg2h-9 ; bg2h-11 ; Basler:2020nrq ; bg2h-13 ; bg2h-12 ; 2111.13079 ; 2207.00060 ; Goncalves:2023svb ).
The negative results in the EDM searches for electrons impose stringent constraints on the explicit CP-violation interactions in the scalar couplings and Yukawa couplings edm-e . There are some cancellation mechanisms of CP-violation effects in the EDM, which can relax the tension between the EWBG and the EDM data 1411.6695 ; Fuyuto:2017ewj ; Modak:2018csw ; Fuyuto:2019svr ; Modak:2020uyq ; 2004.03943 ; 2111.13079 ; 2207.00060 . Even with the cancellation, there are several CP observables of radiative meson decays that still provide stringent constraints, such as the asymmetry of the CP-asymmetry of inclusive decay Modak:2018csw ; Modak:2020uyq , Alternatively, a finite temperature spontaneous CP-violation mechanism is naturally compatible with the EDM data, where the CP symmetry is spontaneously broken at the high temperature and it is recovered at the present temperature. The novel mechanism was achieved in the singlet scalar extension of the SM cao ; huang in which a high dimension effective operator needs to be added, and the singlet pseudoscalar extension of 2HDM Huber:2022ndk ; Liu:2023sey .
In addition to the BAU, the dark matter (DM) is one of the longstanding questions of particle physics and cosmology. In this paper, we propose a complex singlet scalar extension of the 2HDM respecting a discrete dark CP-symmetry, and simultaneously explain the observed DM relic density and the BAU via the spontaneous CP-violation at high temperature. The dark CP-symmetry allows the imaginary component of singlet scalar to have mixings with the pseudoscalars of scalar doublet fields, which play key roles in generating the CP-violation sources needed by the EWBG at high temperature. On the other hand, the dark CP-symmetry guarantees the real component to be a DM candidate.

III Relevant theoretical and experimental constraints
In our calculations, we consider the following theoretical and experimental constraints:
(1) The signal data of the 125 GeV Higgs. We take the light CP even Higgs boson as the discovered 125 GeV state, and choose to satisfy the bound of the 125 GeV Higgs signal data, for which the has the same tree-level couplings to the SM particles as the SM.
(2) The direct searches and indirect searches for extra Higgses. From the Eq. (II), one see that the Yukawa couplings of the extra Higgses (, , , ) are proportional to , and for . Therefore, we assume , and to be small enough to suppress the production cross sections of these extra Higgses at the LHC, and satisfy the exclusion limits of searches for additional Higgs bosons at the LHC. Simultaneously, very small , and can accommodate the indirect searches for these extra Higgses via the -meson decays.
(3) Vaccum stability. We require that the vacuum is stable at tree level, which means that the potential in Eq. (II) has to be bounded from below and the electroweak vacuum is the global minimum of the full scalar potential. To examine bounded from below condition we consider the minimum of quartic part in Eq. (II), , which is written in matrix form in the basis ,

IV Dark matter
The two neutral CP-even Higgs can mediate the interactions of DM, and with
(21) |
We consider a light DM whose freeze-out temperature is much lower than that of EWPT, and thus the effect of EWPT on the current DM relic density can be ignored. We take the new scalars to be much heavier than the DM so that the DM pair-annihilation to these new scalars are kinematically forbidden. In the parameter space chosen previously, the couplings of to the SM particles can be ignored. Therefore, the DM relic density hardly constrains the , and are allowed to have room enough to produce the pattern of EWPT needed by the EWBG. The annihilation processes with -channel exchange of are responsible for the relic density. However, for a light , the invisible decay is kinematically allowed, and the signal data of the 125 GeV Higgs impose strong upper limits on the coupling invisible , which is possible to conflict with the requirement of the correct relic density The elastic scattering of on a nucleon receives the contributions of the process with -channel exchange of , which can be strongly constrained by the direct searches experiments of XENON XENON:2018voc . Besides, the indirect searches for DM can impose upper limits on the averaged cross sections of the DM annihilation to , , , , , and Fermi-LAT:2015att .
After imposing the relevant theoretical and experimental constraints mentioned previously, we show the versus allowed by the invisible decay of the 125 GeV Higgs, the DM relic density, the direct and indirect searches experiments in Fig. 1. From Fig. 1, we find that the DM with a mass of GeV GeV is allowed by the joint constraints of the invisible decay of the 125 GeV Higgs, the DM relic density, the direct and indirect searches experiments.
V EWPT and Baryogenesis
We first consider the effective scalar potential at the finite temperature. The neutral elements of and are shifted by and . It is plausible to take the imaginary part of the neutral elements of to be zero since the effective potential of Eq. (II) only depends on the relative phase of the neutral elements of and .
The complete effective potential at finite temperature contains the tree level potential, the Coleman-Weinberg term vcw , the finite temperature corrections vloop and the resummed daisy corrections vring1 ; vring2 , which is gauge-dependent vgauge1 ; vgauge2 . Here we consider the high-temperature approximation of effective potential, which keeps only the thermal mass terms in the high-temperature expansion and the tree-level potential. Therefore, the effective potential is gauge invariant, and it does not depend on the renormalization scheme and the resummation scheme. The high-temperature approximation of effective potential is given by

Because baryogenesis is driven by diffusion processes in front of the bubble wall, one needs to compute the at which bubble nucleation actually starts. This can be calculated straightforwardly from the nucleation rate per unit volume by bubble-0 ; bubble-1 ; bubble-2 , , where is a prefactor and is a three-dimensional Euclidian action. The nucleation temperature is obtained by = 1, where is the Hubble parameter. It is roughly estimated by . The bubble wall VEV profiles can be determined by the bounce equations of fields.
The WKB approximation method is used to evaluate the CP-violating source terms and chemical potentials transport equations of particle species in the wall frame with a radial coordinate bg2h-3 ; 0006119 ; 0604159 . A top quark penetrating the bubble wall acquires a complex mass as a function of ,
(23) |
In our calculation, the imaginary part of the neutral element of is taken to be zero. As a result, the nonvanishing field induces an additional CP-violating force acting on the top quark, which is removed a local axial transformation of top quark, reintroducing an additional overall phase into bg2h-4 .
The transport equations are derived by the complex mass of the top quark, and contains effects of the strong sphaleron process () bg2h-3 ; 9311367 , W-scattering () bg2h-3 ; 9506477 , the top Yukawa interaction () bg2h-3 ; 9506477 , the top helicity flips () bg2h-3 ; 9506477 , and the Higgs number violation () bg2h-3 ; 9506477 .

We focus on the following three-step PTs achieving the spontaneous CP-violation at high temperature and recovering the CP-symmetry. At the first-step PT, the field firstly acquires a nonzero VEV while still remains zero. The second-step PT is a strongly first-order EWPT converting the origin phase of into an electroweak symmetry broken phase, where is required to be nonzero. In order to prevent the electroweak sphalerons to wash out the produced BAU inside the bubbles of broken phase, the PT strength is impose an bound pt-stren , in the broken phase. After the third-step PT, the observed vacuum is produced and the CP-symmetry is restored while the BAU is not changed. We employ the package CosmoTransitions to analyze the PTs cosmopt . Some parameter space achieving the three-step PTs are shown in Fig. 2, where we consider the constraints of the vacuum stability, oblique parameter pdg2020 , dark matter observables, and the 125 GeV Higgs signal data, and the data of BAU is not included. From Fig. 2, we find that the three-step PTs satisfying our requirements favor an appropriate value of since the term of Eq. (V) can lead to a close correlation between and of the potential minimum. As a result, according to Eq. (9), and is required to have a large mass splitting.




We pick out a benchmark point BP1 to discuss the EWPT and baryogenesis detailedly, and the key input parameters are shown in Table 1. The phase histories for the BP1 are shown in Fig. 3. Because the contributions of the thermal mass terms to the effective potential are proportional to , the minimum of the potential is at the origin at a very high temperature. As the Universe cools, at T=85.38 GeV, a second-order PT takes place during which acquires a nonzero VEV and the other four fields remain zero. At T=69.65 GeV, a strongly first-order EWPT starts which breaks electroweak symmetry, (0, 0, 0, 0, 73.71) GeV (62.42, 34.64, 55.24, 0.0, 37.50) GeV for (, , , , ). The PT strength is 1.30, and the BAU is produced via the EWBG mechanism. At T=52.95 GeV, another second-order PT happens, and then CP-symmetry is recovered. The vacuum evolves along the final phase, and ultimately ends in the observed values at T = 0 GeV. Meanwhile, is always kept so that the BAU is not washed out by the sphaleron processes. The freeze-out temperature of with a mass of 55.95 GeV is around 2.8 GeV, which is much lower than the PT temperatures.
The calculation of BAU depends on the bubble wall profiles, and we use the FindBounce findbounce to obtain the bubble wall VEV profiles for the first-order EWPT of BP1, which is given in Fig. 4. The WKB method of calculating transport equations needs the condition of , where is the width of bubble wall. The of BP1 is approximately estimated to be 3.4.
VI Comment on gravitational wave signatures, dark matter, and the LHC signatures
The first-order EWPT needed by the EWBG can produce the gravitational wave. We find that the gravitational wave signatures from the three-step PTs mentioned above can easily exceed the sensitivity curve of the U-DECIGO detector udecigo , such as those of BP1. A full exploration of the parameter space will potentially find promising regions for detectable gravitational wave signal at the BBO bbodecigo . The extra Higgses (, , , ) couplings to the SM fermions are significantly suppressed for . Therefore, these extra Higgses are dominantly produced at the LHC via the electroweak processes mediated by , and , and the main decay modes include , . The decay modes depend on specific values of . For a heavy DM whose freeze-out temperature is higher than the EWPT temperature, the EWPT can give significant effects on the DM relic density. The studies of the LHC signatures and the heavy DM will be carried out in the future.
VII Conclusion
We proposed a complex singlet scalar extension of the 2HDM respecting a discrete dark CP-symmetry. The dark CP-symmetry guarantees to be a DM candidate on one hand and on the other hand allows to have mixings with the pseudoscalars of the scalar doublet fields, which plays key roles in producing the CP-violation sources needed by the EWBG at high temperature. Imposing relevant theoretical and experimental constraints, we studied the scenario of around the SM Higgs resonance region, and found that the dark matter relic abundance and the BAU can be simultaneously explained.
