Interpretation of XENON1T excess with MeV boosted dark matter

The XENON1T excess of keV electron recoil events may be induced by the scattering of electrons and long-lived particles with MeV mass and high-speed. We consider a tangible model composed of two scalar MeV dark matter (DM) particles $S_A$ and $S_B$ to interpret the XENON1T keV excess via boosted $S_B$. A small mass splitting $m_{S_A}-m_{S_B}>0$ is introduced and the boosted $S_B$ can be produced by the dark annihilation process of $S_A S_A^\dagger \to \phi \to S_B S_B^\dagger$viaaresonantscalar$\phi$\mathrm{.}The$S_B-$electron scattering is intermediated by a vector boson $X$. Although the constraints from BBN, CMB and low-energy experiments set the $X-$mediated $S_B-$electron scattering cross section to be $\lesssim {10}^{-35}{\mathrm{c}\mathrm{m}}^2$, the MeV scale DM with a resonance enhanced dark annihilation today can still provide enough boosted $S_B$ and induce the XENON1T keV excess. The relic density of $S_B$ is significantly reduced by the $s$-wave process of $S_B{S}_B^{†}\to XX$ which is allowed by the constraints from CMB and 21-cm absorption. A very small relic fraction of $S_B$ is compatible with the stringent bounds on un-boosted $S_B$-electron scattering in DM direct detection and the $S_A$-electron scattering is also allowed.
