Abstract

We study the scattering of two identical pNGBs (pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone Bosons) in Sp(4) gauge theory with two mass-degenerate Dirac fermions in the pseudo-real fundamental representation. This theory serves as a realization of a SIMP (Strongly Interacting Massive Particles) Dark Matter model. SIMPs...

Abstract: We study the scattering of two identical pNGBs (pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone Bosons) in Sp(4) gauge theory with two mass-degenerate Dirac fermions in the pseudo-real fundamental representation. This theory serves as a realization of a SIMP (Strongly Interacting Massive Particles) Dark Matter model. SIMPs are an exciting dark matter candidate as they make use of a new relic density mechanism and provide potential solutions to the so-called small-scale structure problems. These theories are realized by a confining dark sector which includes non-perturbative signatures. While most of the research focuses on ChPT (Chiral Perturbation Theory), first-principle verification of these models is indispensable. In these proceedings we give an update on scattering properties in the most common channel and give an outlook on the projects that lie ahead.
