TL;DR

This paper explores a model combining Higgs inflation, Higgs portal dark matter, and right-handed neutrinos, explaining recent experimental results and making specific predictions for particle masses and couplings.

Contribution

It introduces a unified framework linking Higgs inflation, dark matter, and neutrino physics, with precise parameter predictions consistent with current measurements.

Findings

Predicts dark matter mass between 805 GeV and 1220 GeV.

Estimates right-handed neutrino mass between 1.05×10^{14} GeV and 2.04×10^{14} GeV.

Determines non-minimal coupling parameter within 8.42 to 12.4.

Abstract

We investigate the Higgs inflation and the Higgs portal dark matter with the right-handed neutrino. The dark matter and the right-handed neutrino in the Higgs inflation play important roles in explaining the recent experimental results of the Higgs and top masses, and the cosmic microwave background by BICEP2 at the same time. This inflation model predicts $805~{\rm GeV} \lesssim m_{\rm DM} \lesssim1220~{\rm GeV}$ for the DM mass, $1.05 \times10^{14}~{\rm GeV} \lesssim M_R \lesssim 2.04 \times10^{14}~{\rm GeV}$ for the right-handed neutrino mass, and $8.42 \lesssim \xi \lesssim 12.4$ for the non-minimal coupling within $m_H=125.6 \pm 0.35~{\rm GeV}$ for the Higgs and $M_t=173.34 \pm 0.76~{\rm GeV}$ for the top masses.
