Abstract
- Motivated by the recently reported anomaly in W boson mass by the CDF collaboration with $7\sigma$ statistical significance, we consider a singlet-doublet (SD) Majorana fermion dark matter (DM) model where the required correction to W boson mass arises from radiative corrections induced by SD fermions. While a single generation of SD fermions, odd under an unbroken $Z_2$ symmetry, can not explain the W boson mass anomaly while being consistent with DM phenomenology, two generations of SD fermions can do so with the heavier generation playing the dominant role in W-mass correction and lighter generation playing the role in DM phenomenology. Additionally, such multiple generations of SD fermions can also generate light neutrino masses radiatively if a $Z_2$-odd singlet scalar is included.<br />Comment: Version 3: 8 pages, 5 captioned figures; matches version accepted for publication in Phys.
