Non-thermal right-handed sneutrino dark matter and the ΩDM/Ωb problem

نویسنده

چکیده

We argue that the superpartner of the Dirac right-handed neutrino is a prime candidate for dark matter created from a ’mattergenesis’ mechanism. We show that due to the smallness of the Yukawa couplings, a right-handed sneutrino density created in the early Universe would not be erased by annihilations, which remain out of thermal equilibrium. It would also not be drowned by a later, additional production of right-handed sneutrinos, as the relic density of the non-thermal right-handed sneutrinos is found to be generally negligible compared to the observed dark matter density. Mild constraints on sneutrino masses and trilinear SUSY-breaking couplings are obtained. Possible mattergenesis scenarios are also mentioned

Asymmetric Sneutrino Dark Matter

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 asy...

Mixed Sneutrino Dark Matter and the Ratio

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 species possesses a particle-antiparticle asymmetry....

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...

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 ...
