CDM in Supersymmetric Models
نویسنده
چکیده
The supersymmetric extension to the Standard Model offers a promising cold dark matter candidate, the lightest neutralino. I will review the phenomenological and cosmological constraints on the supersymmetric parameter space and discuss the prospects for the detection of this candidate in both accelerator and direct detection searches.

- 06 Target dark matter detection rates in models with a well - tempered neutralino
In the post-LEP2 era, and in light of recent measurements of the cosmic abundance of cold dark matter (CDM) in the universe from WMAP, many supersymmetric models tend to predict 1. an overabundance of CDM and 2. pessimistically low rates for direct detection of neutralino dark matter. However, in models with a " well-tempered neutralino " , where the neutralino composition is adjusted to give t...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Inflation, Matter and Dark Energy
In this talk, based on [1], we emphasise that intermediate scale supersymmetric inflation models are particularly attractive since inflation, baryogenesis and the relic abundance of cold dark matter (CDM) are all related by a set of parameters which also affect particle physics collider phenomena, neutrino masses and the strong CP problem. We also point out that the present day relic abundances...
متن کاملCdm Abundance in Non-standard Cosmologies
The relic density of a cold dark matter (CDM) candidate is calculated in the context of three non-standard cosmological scenaria and its value is compared with the one obtained in the standard regime. In particular, we consider the decoupling of the CDM particle during: (i) A decaying-particle dominated phase or (ii) a kinetic-energy dominated phase or (iii) the decay of a massive particle unde...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Dark Matter in the Light of Lep
The negative outcome of searches for supersymmetry performed at LEP have been used to derive indirect constraints on the parameters of the most plausible models for cold dark matter based on supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model. The main results are summarized. Introduction. The sensitivity of accelerators searches for new particles to possible solutions for the Cold Dark Matter (CDM...
متن کاملCold Dark Matter detection in SUSY models at large tan β
We study the direct detection rate for SUSY cold dark matter (CDM) predicted by the minimal supersymmetric standard model with universal boundary conditions and large values for tanβ. The relic abundance of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP), assumed to be approximately a bino, is obtained by including its coannihilations with the next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle (NLSP), which i...
