Higgs mass and right-handed sneutrino WIMP in a supersymmetric 3-3-1 model.

This work deals with the right-handed sneutrino as thermal cold dark matter candidate. This scalar emerges in a supersymmetric version of the SU(3)c⊗SU(3)L⊗U(1)X gauge model where right-handed neutrinos are a natural component of leptonic chiral scalar supermultiplets. We first consider the issue of a 125 GeV Higgs boson mass in this model, showing that constraints on the stop mass and trilinear soft coupling are considerably alleviated compared to the minimal supersymmetric standard model. Then, we investigate the region of parameter space that is consistent with right-handed sneutrino as thermal cold dark matter, under the light of Planck results on the relic abundance and direct detection from the LUX experiment. This sneutrino mainly annihilates through an extra neutral gauge boson, Z′, and Higgs exchange so that the physics of dark matter is somewhat related to the parameters determining Higgs and Z′ masses. We then obtain that the right-handed sneutrino in this model must be heavier than 400 GeV to conform with Planck and LUX, simultaneously constraining the Z′ mass to be above 2400 GeV, which is in perfect agreement with LHC searches in a nonsupersymmetric version of this model.
