Connecting multi-lepton anomalies at the LHC and in Astrophysics and the prospects of MeerKAT/SKA

Published 2021-02-21Version 1

Multi-lepton anomalies at the Large Hadron Collider are reasonably well described by a two Higgs doublet model with an additional singlet scalar. Here, we demonstrate that using this model we are also able to describe the excesses in gamma-ray flux from the galactic centre and the cosmic-ray spectra from AMS-02. This is achieved through Dark Matter (DM) annihilation via the singlet scalar. Of great interest is the flux of synchrotron emissions which results from annihilation of DM in Milky-Way satellites. We make predictions for MeerKAT observations of the nearby dwarf galaxy Reticulum~II and we demonstrate the power of this instrument as a new frontier in indirect dark matter searches.
