Abstract

We present a simple extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model which provides a unified picture of cosmological baryon asymmetry and dark matter. Our model introduces a gauge singlet field N and a color triplet field X which couple to the right-handed quark fields. The out-of-equilibrium decay of the Majorana fermion N mediated by the exchange of the scalar field X generates adequate baryon asymmetry for M{sub N}{approx}100 GeV and M{sub X}{approx}TeV. The scalar partner of N (denoted N-tilde{sub 1}) is naturally the lightest SUSY particle as it has no gauge interactions and plays the role of dark matter. The model is experimentally testable in (i) neutron-antineutron oscillations with a transition time estimated to be around 10{sup 10}sec (ii) discovery of colored particles X at LHC with mass of order TeV, and (iii) direct dark matter detection with a predicted cross section in the observable range.

Tev Scale Colored Particles, Baryogenesis and Dark Matter

Nasri, Salah - AIP Conference Proceedings

We propose a unified scenario of two puzzles in particle physics and cosmology, namely, the dark matter and the origin of the baryon asymmetry of the universe in a simple extension of MSSM. Our model uses a gauge singlet chiral superfield field N, where the out-of equilibrium decay of the fermionic partner of N mediated by the exchange of a colored TeV scale scalar field generates adequate baryon asymmetry for M{sub N}{approx}100 GeV. The scalar partner of N is naturally the lightest SUSY particle as it has no gauge interactions and plays the role of dark matter. The model ismore »« less

Predictive model for dark matter, dark energy, neutrino masses, and leptogenesis at the TeV scale

Sahu, Narendra ; Sarkar, Utpal - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We propose a new mechanism of TeV scale leptogenesis where the chemical potential of right-handed electrons is passed on to the B-L asymmetry of the Universe in the presence of sphalerons. The model has the virtue that the origin of neutrino masses is independent of the scale of leptogenesis. As a result, the model could be extended to explain dark matter, dark energy, neutrino masses, and leptogenesis at the TeV scale. The most attractive feature of this model is that it predicts a few hundred GeV triplet Higgs scalar that can be tested at LHC or the International Linear Collider.

Unified brane gravity: Cosmological dark matter from a scale dependent Newton constant

Gurwich, Ilya ; Davidson, Aharon - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We analyze, within the framework of unified brane gravity, the weak-field perturbations caused by the presence of matter on a 3-brane. Although deviating from the Randall-Sundrum approach, the masslessness of the graviton is still preserved. In particular, the four-dimensional Newton force law is recovered, but serendipitously, the corresponding Newton constant is shown to be necessarily lower than the one which governs Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmology. This has the potential to puzzle out cosmological dark matter. A subsequent conjecture concerning galactic dark matter follows.

Inclusive constraints on unified dark matter models from future large-scale surveys

Camera, Stefano ; Carbone, Carmelita ; Moscardini, Lauro, E-mail: stefano.camera@ist.utl.pt, E-mail: carmelita.carbone@unibo.it, E-mail: lauro.moscardini@unibo.it - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

In the very last years, cosmological models where the properties of the dark components of the Universe — dark matter and dark energy — are accounted for by a single ''dark fluid'' have drawn increasing attention and interest. Amongst many proposals, Unified Dark Matter (UDM) cosmologies are promising candidates as effective theories. In these models, a scalar field with a non-canonical kinetic term in its Lagrangian mimics both the accelerated expansion of the Universe at late times and the clustering properties of the large-scale structure of the cosmos. However, UDM models also present peculiar behaviours, the most interesting one beingmore »« less
