On Supersymmetric Dark Matter

چکیده
The extra particles provided by Supersymmetry(SUSY) appear as natural candidates for exotica such as the missing Dark Matter of the Universe. The particle candidates for Dark Matter, and the basic elements of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model are reviewed. The needed elements to compute the neutralino counting rate are given, considering new Yukawa loop corrections to the neutralinoneutralino-Higgs boson couplings when the neutralino is a Bino-like state. Including the new loop corrections in the Bino limit, the counting rate is improved in a 20% for several values of the soft breaking supersymmetric parameters. 1 1 Dissertation at the Diploma Course in High Energy Physics.

Supersymmetric Dark Matter Candidates The lightest neutralino, the gravitino, and the axino
In supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, the lightest neutralino, the gravitino, and the axino can appear as the lightest supersymmetric particle and as such provide a compelling explanation of the non-baryonic dark matter in our Universe. For each of these dark matter candidates, I review the present status of primordial production mechanisms, cosmological constraints, and prospects...
متن کاملDirect and Indirect Detection of Neutralino Dark Matter In Selected Supersymmetry Breaking Scenarios
Various methods of searching for supersymmetric dark matter are sensitive to WIMPs with different properties. One consequence of this is that the phenomenology of dark matter detection can vary dramatically in different supersymmetric breaking scenarios. In this paper, we consider the sensitivities to supersymmetric dark matter of different detection methods and techniques in a wide variety of ...
متن کاملIndirect Searches for Neutralino Dark Matter
There is mounting evidence for dark matter in the Universe and one of the favourite dark matter candidates is the neutralino, which naturally appears as the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) in many supersymmetric extensions of the standard model. The neutralino has the desired properties to be a good dark matter candidate and we will here review the different indirect searches for neutral...

The nature of dark matter is one of the most important questions of highenergy physics, in the context of cosmology as well as particle physics. Inthis report, I present my work on the nature of dark matter in the contextof the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM).In particular, I consider scenarios in which the neutralino is the lightestsupersymmetr...
متن کاملSneutrino Cold Dark Matter in Extended Mssm Models
A thorough analysis of sneutrinos as dark matter candidates is performed, in different classes of supersymmetric models, as is typically done for the neutralino dark matter. First in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, sneutrinos are marginally compatible with existing experimental bounds, including direct detection, provided they compose a subdominant component of dark matter. Then supe...
متن کاملDark Matter in the Finely Tuned Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model
We explore dark matter in the Finely Tuned Minimal Supersymmetric Standard model recently proposed by Arkani-Hamed and Dimopoulos. Relative to the MSSM, there are fewer particles at freezeout, so the calculation of the relic abundance simplifies. Similarly, the predictions for direct detection of the dark matter sharpen. There is a large region of mixed bino–higgsino dark matter where the light...
