Abstract
We explore the parameter space of the phenomenological minimal supersymmetric standard model with a light neutralino thermal dark matter (mχ 10≤mh/2) that is consistent with current collider and astrophysical constraints. We consider both positive and negative values of the higgsino mass parameter (μ). Our investigation shows that the recent experimental results from the LHC as well as from direct detection searches for dark matter by the LUX-ZEPLIN Collaboration rule out the Z-funnel region for the μ>0 scenario. The same results severely restrict the h-funnel region for positive μ; however, the allowed points can be probed easily with few more days of data from the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment. In the μ[removed]
