Dark matter (DM) in the universe

Dark matter exists at various scales in the universe. (galaxies, clusters, large scale struture, cosmological scale) However, we hardly know its property.

Dark matter (DM) Relic density

ΛCDM model fitted by 7-year WMAP data: [Ap. J. Suppl. 192, 16 (2011)] ΩCDMh2 = 0.1109, Ωbaryonh2 = 0.02258, ΩΛ = 0.734 (Cold DM ∼ 21.1%, baryons ∼ 4.3%, dark energy ∼ 74.6%) For thermal produced DM, ΩCDM ∝ σannv−1. However, in SUSY models, the self-annihilation cross section σann of the LSP neutralino ˜ χ0

1 is generally not large enough to yield the observed

relic density ΩCDM. A way out: the next-to-lightest SUSY particle (NLSP) coannihilates with the LSP. Need: mNLSP − mLSP mLSP ≲ 20%

Conclusions and discussions

.

1

Collider detection is an important DM detection method complementary to direct and indirect detection. . . .

2

Current LHC data give constraints on light stop in our coannihilation scenarios.

Scenarios 1 (NLSP ˜ t1): up to m˜

t1 ∼ 220GeV

Scenarios 2 (NLSP ˜ χ±

1 ): up to m˜ t1 ∼ 380GeV

Scenarios 3 (NLSP ˜ τ±

1 ): up to m˜ t1 ∼ 230GeV

. . .

3

After taking care of DM relic density, the constraints on light stop are much weaker than those in the simplified models considered by experimentalists (up to ∼ 500GeV) . . .

4

In these scenarios, there is still lots of parameter space where SUSY can live in, and there may be plenty of modified SUSY scenarios we never considered. Weak scale SUSY is far from death.
