We study pure weak eigenstate Dirac fermionic dark matter (DM). We consider WIMP with renormalizable interaction. According to results of direct searches and the nature of DM (electrical neutral and being a pure weak eigenstate), the quantum number of DM is determined to be I-3 = Y = 0. There are only two possible cases: either DM has nonvanishing weak isospin (I not equal 0) or it is an isosinglet (I = 0). In the first case, the Sommerfeld enhancement is sizable for large I, producing large chi(0)chi(0) -%26gt; VV rates. In particular, we obtain large chi(chi) over bar -%26gt; W+ W- cross section, which is comparable to the latest bounds from indirect searches and m(chi) is constrained to be larger than a few hundred GeV to a few TeV. It is possible to give correct relic density with m(chi) higher than these lower bounds. In the second case, to couple DM to standard model (SM) particles, a SM-singlet vector mediator X is required from renormalizability and the SM gauge quantum numbers. To satisfy the latest bounds of direct searches and to reproduce the DM relic density at the same time, resonant enhancement in DM annihilation diagram is needed. Thus, the masses of DM and the mediator are related. Furthermore, this model is not sufficient to explain the deviation in muon g (-) 2.
