## TL;DR

This paper thoroughly examines the singlet-triplet scotogenic model, demonstrating its consistency with dark matter relic density, neutrino masses, and experimental constraints, while identifying testable regions for future experiments.

## Contribution

It provides a comprehensive analysis of the model's parameter space, including dark matter annihilation, scattering cross-sections, and experimental bounds, highlighting its phenomenological viability.

## Key findings

- Dark matter annihilation cross-section below current gamma-ray bounds
- Next-generation experiments can probe some model parameter space
- Model explains neutrino masses and dark matter simultaneously

## Abstract

We perform a complete analysis of the consistency of the singlet-triplet scotogenic model, where both dark matter and neutrino masses can be explained. We determine the parameter space that yields the proper thermal relic density been in agreement with neutrino physics, lepton flavor violation, direct and indirect dark matter searches. In particular, we calculate the dark matter annihilation into two photons, finding that the corresponding cross-section is below the present bounds reported by the Fermi-LAT and H.E.S.S. collaborations. We also determine the spin-dependent cross-section for dark matter elastic scattering with nucleons at one-loop level, finding that the next generation of experiments as LZ and DARWIN could test a small region of the parameter space of the model.
