Abstract: In this analysis we demonstrate the freeze-in realization of a non-abelian vector boson dark matter (DM). We choose to elaborate an existing SU(2)N extension (N stands for neutral) of the Standard Model (SM) with an additional U(1)=S' global symmetry, which stabilizes the vector boson () as DM through unbroken S=T3N+S' and as lightest odd S particle. The analysis reveals that the contribution to the freeze-in production of DM from the decay of a heavier scalar bidoublet zeta10,pmozeta20,pmX is important even after the freeze-out of zeta10,pm in equilibrium with thermal bath. Moreover, the neutral component of SU(2)N scalar triplet (Delta), responsible for neutrino mass generation in this framework, turns out to serve as additional DMs in the model and offers a multipartite freeze-in DM set up to explore. The allowed parameter space is obtained after estimating constraints from CMB, BBN and AMS-02 bound. This exercise nicely complements the freeze-out realization of () as weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) and distinguishes it through stable charge track signature at collider compared to leptonic signal excess as found in WIMP scenario.
