The Inert Doublet Model and its Phenomenology

The single Higgs doublet in the standard model (SM) may be the simplest way of introducing electroweak symmetry breaking, but SM extensions with more scalar doublets are not excluded. A special case of the two Higgs doublet models is the inert doublet model - a minimalistic version with interesting phenomenology. These proceedings reviews the inert doublet model’s theoretical setup, constraints, collider prospects and its dark matter phenomenology.
