Z ′ Signals from Kaluza - Klein Dark Matter
نویسنده
چکیده
In a minimal model of universal extra dimensions the lightest Kalzua-Klein particle is neutral and stable because of Kaluza-Klein parity conservation and it is a dark matter candidate. The corresponding level 2 mode of the lightest Kaluza-Klein particle can be detected via KK number violating decays to Standard Model particles. The expected sensitivity to second level Kaluza-Klein modes of neutral gauge bosons at the ILC is studied.

Kaluza-Klein dark matter.
We propose that cold dark matter is made of Kaluza-Klein particles and explore avenues for its detection. The lightest Kaluza-Klein state is an excellent dark matter candidate if standard model particles propagate in extra dimensions and Kaluza-Klein parity is conserved. We consider Kaluza-Klein gauge bosons. In sharp contrast to the case of supersymmetric dark matter, these annihilate to hard ...
متن کاملKaluza–Klein Dark Matter from Deconstructed Universal Extra Dimensions
We consider Kaluza–Klein dark matter from deconstructed or latticized universal extra dimensions and study in this model the positron flux from Kaluza–Klein dark matter annihilation in the galactic halo.
متن کاملIndirect Searches for Kaluza-klein Dark Matter∗
In this talk, we discuss the potential for the indirect detection of Kaluza-Klein dark matter using neutrino telescopes and cosmic positron experiments. We find that future kilometer-scale neutrino telescopes, such as IceCube, as well as future experiments capable of measuring the cosmic positron spectrum, such as PAMELA and AMS-02, will be quite sensitive to this scenario. Current data from th...
متن کاملDark Matter Decaying Now
The instability of dark matter may produce visible signals in the spectrum of cosmic gamma-rays. We consider this possibility in frameworks with additional spatial dimensions and supersymmetry. Examples of particles include superweakly-interacting massive particles such as gravitinos in supersymmetry models, the lightest Kaluza-Klein (KK) state in models with universal extra dimensions, and wea...
متن کاملIndirect Detection of Kaluza–Klein Dark Matter from Latticized Universal Dimensions
We consider Kaluza–Klein dark matter from latticized universal dimensions. We motivate and investigate two different lattice models, where the models differ in the choice of boundary conditions. The models reproduce relevant features of the continuum model for Kaluza– Klein dark matter. For the model with simple boundary conditions, this is the case even for a model with only a few lattice site...
