Decaying Dark Matter Baryons in a Composite Messenger Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
A baryonic bound state with a mass of O(100) TeV, which is composed of strongly interacting messenger quarks in the low scale gauge mediation, can naturally be the cold dark matter. Interestingly, we find that such a baryonic dark matter is generically metastable, and the decay of this dark matter can naturally explain the anomalous positron flux recently observed by the PAMELA collaboration.

Baryons and Dark Matter from the Late Decay of a Supersymmetric Condensate
The possibility that both the baryon asymmetry and dark matter arise from the late decay of a population of supersymmetric particles is considered. If the decay takes -pl=e below the LSP freeze out temperature, a nonthermal distribution of LSPS results. With conserved R parity these relic LSPS contribute to the dark matter density. A net asymmetry can exist in the population of decaying particl...
متن کاملSearching for decaying axionlike dark matter from clusters of galaxies.
We constrain the lifetime of radiatively decaying dark matter in clusters of galaxies inspired by generic Kaluza-Klein axions, which have been invoked as a possible explanation for the solar coronal x-ray emission. These particles can be produced inside stars and remain confined by the gravitational potential of clusters. By analyzing x-ray observations of merging clusters, where gravitational ...
متن کاملModel for gravitational interaction between dark matter and baryons.
We propose a phenomenological model where the gravitational interaction between dark matter and baryons is suppressed on small, subgalactic scales. We describe the gravitational force by adding a Yukawa contribution to the standard Newtonian potential and show that this interaction scheme is effectively suggested by the available observations of the inner rotation curves of small mass galaxies....
متن کاملCold Dark Matter as Compact Composite Objects
Dark Matter (DM) being the vital ingredient in the cosmos, still remains a mystery. Standard assumption is that the collisionless cold dark matter (CCDM) particles are represented by some weakly interacting fundamental fields which can not be associated with any standard quarks or leptons. However, recent analyses of structure on galactic and sub-galactic scales have suggested discrepancies and...
متن کاملBaryons and weak lensing power spectra
We provide a simple toy model to elucidate the effects of baryonic cooling on predictions of the convergence power spectrum in weak gravitational lensing. Our model suggests that the effects of baryonic cooling on dark matter halo profiles can alter the dark matter power spectrum at k ∼ 10hMpc and lead to percent level changes in the convergence angular power spectrum at wavenumbers of several ...
