Dark matter data and quartic self-couplings in Inert Doublet Model

Abstract

We analyse the thermal evolution of the Universe in the Inert Doublet Model for three viable regions of Dark Matter mass: low, medium and high DM mass. Those three regions exhibit different behaviour in the possible types of evolution. We argue that the quartic self-couplings in IDM are significant parameters for the astrophysical analysis.
