Abstract
We study how collider data and electroweak precision observables affect the parameter space of models including a new dark force mediated by a massive U1 gauge boson It acquires mass via a Higgs mechanism in the dark sector which is connected to the Standard Model through kinetic mixing of the two U1 gauge bosons and the Higgs potential We assess the impact of the 7 TeV LHC and show that most of the parameter space of the model can be probed with an integrated luminosity of 15 fb−1
