Asymmetric Sneutrino Dark Matter

چکیده

It is known that the cosmological baryon density (Ωb) and dark matter density (Ωdm) have strikingly similar values. However, in most theories of the early Universe, each density is explained by separate dynamics and consequently there is no compelling reason for this observation. In this note, I briefly review a model in which the dark matter possesses a particleantiparticle asymmetry. This asymmetry determines both the baryon asymmetry and strongly affects the dark matter density, thus naturally linking Ωb and Ωdm. In these models it is shown that sneutrinos can play the role of such dark matter.

Right sneutrino dark matter and a monochromatic photon line

The inclusion of right-chiral sneutrino superfields is a rather straight forward addition to a supersymmetric scenario. A neutral scalar with a substantial right sneutrino component is often a favoured dark matter candidate in such cases. In this context, we focus on the tentative signal in the form of a monochromatic photon, which may arise from dark matter annihilation and has drawn some atte...

Asymmetric Sneutrino Dark Matter and the Ωb/ΩDM Puzzle

The inferred values of the cosmological baryon and dark matter densities are strikingly similar, but in most theories of the early universe there is no true explanation of this fact; in particular, the baryon asymmetry and thus density depends upon unknown, and a priori small, CP-violating phases which are independent of all parameters determining the dark matter density. We consider models of ...

Right - handed sneutrino as thermal dark matter

We study an extension of the MSSM with a singlet S with coupling SH1H2 in order to solve the μ problem as in the NMSSM, and right-handed neutrinos N with couplings SNN in order to generate dynamically electroweak-scale Majorana masses. We show how in this model a purely right-handed sneutrino can be a viable candidate for cold dark matter in the Universe. Through the direct coupling to the sing...

Mixed sneutrino dark matter in light of the 2011 XENON and LHC results

In the context of supersymmetric models in which small Dirac neutrino masses are generated by supersymmetry breaking, a mainly right-handed (RH) mixed sneutrino can be an excellent cold dark matter (DM) candidate. We perform a global analysis of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM)+RH neutrino parameter space by means of Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling. We include all relevant con...

Right-Handed Sneutrino as Cold Dark Matter

We consider supersymmetric models with right-handed neutrinos where neutrino masses are purely Dirac-type. In this model, right-handed sneutrino can be the lightest supersymmetric particle and can be a viable candidate of cold dark matter of the universe. Right-handed sneutrinos are never thermalized in the early universe because of weakness of Yukawa interaction, but are effectively produced b...
