| contents | In this paper, we investigate the discovery prospect of simplified fermionic dark sectors models through Higgs precision measurements at $e^+e^-$ colliders and direct searches at hadron colliders. These models extend the Standard Model with two Majorana or Dirac fermions that are singlets, doublets or triplets under the weak SU(2) group. For all models, we consider two scenarios where the lightest new fermion is either stable, or where it decays into other visible final states. For the Higgs precision observables we primarily focus on $σ(e^+e^-\to ZH)$, which can deviate from the Standard Model through one-loop corrections involving the new fermions. Deviations of 0.5\% or more, which could be observable at future $e^+e^-$ colliders, are found for TeV-scale dark sector masses. By combining the constraints from the oblique parameters, $\text{Br}(H\toγγ)$, and direct production of the new fermions at the LHC, a comprehensive understanding of the discovery potential of these models can be achieved. In both scenarios, there exist some parameter regions where the Higgs precision measurements can provide complementary information to direct LHC searches. |
