Neutralino dark matter in focus point supersymmetry

Journal Article Feng, Jonathan L. ; Matchev, Konstantin T. ; Wilczek, Frank - Phys.Lett.B

In recent work, it has been argued that multi-TeV masses for scalar superpartners are not unnatural. Indeed, they appear to have significant phenomenological virtues. Here we explore the implications of such `focus point' supersymmetry for the dark matter problem. We find that constraints on relic densities do not place upper bounds on neutralino or scalar masses. We demonstrate that, in the specific context of minimal supergravity, a cosmologically stable mixed gaugino-Higgsino state emerges as an excellent, robust dark matter candidate. We estimate that, over a wide range of the unknown parameters, the spin-independent proton-neutralino cross sections fall in the rangemore »« less

Complementarity of gamma-ray and CERN LHC searches for neutralino dark matter in the focus point region

Journal Article Moulin, E ; Jacholkowska, A ; Moultaka, G ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We study the complementarity between the indirect detection of dark matter with {gamma}-rays in H.E.S.S. and the supersymmetry searches with ATLAS at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the focus point region within the mSUGRA framework. The sensitivity of the central telescope of the H.E.S.S. II experiment with an energy threshold of {approx}20 GeV is investigated. We show that the detection of {gamma}-ray fluxes of O(10{sup -12}) cm{sup -2} s{sup -1} with H.E.S.S. II covers a substantial part of the focus point region which may be more difficult for LHC experiments. Despite the presence of multi-TeV scalars, we show thatmore »« less

Supersymmetry and dark matter post LHC8: Why we may expect both axion and WIMP detection

Journal Article Baer, Howard - AIP Conference Proceedings

In the post-LHC8 era, it is perceived that what is left of SUSY model parameter space is highly finetuned in the EW sector (EWFT). We discuss how conventional measures overestimate EWFT in SUSY theory. Radiatively-driven natural SUSY (RNS) models maintain the SUSY GUT paradigm with low EWFT at 10% level, but are characterized by light higgsinos ~100–300 GeV and a thermal underabundance of WIMP dark matter. Implementing the SUSY DFSZ solution to the strong CP problem explains the small μ parameter but indicates dark matter should be comprised mainly of axions with a small admixture of higgsino-like WIMPs. While RNSmore »« less

How well will ton-scale dark matter direct detection experiments constrain minimal supersymmetry?

Journal Article Akrami, Yashar ; Savage, Christopher ; Scott, Pat ; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

Weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) are amongst the most interesting dark matter (DM) candidates. Many DM candidates naturally arise in theories beyond the standard model (SM) of particle physics, like weak-scale supersymmetry (SUSY). Experiments aim to detect WIMPs by scattering, annihilation or direct production, and thereby determine the underlying theory to which they belong, along with its parameters. Here we examine the prospects for further constraining the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (CMSSM) with future ton-scale direct detection experiments. We consider ton-scale extrapolations of three current experiments: CDMS, XENON and COUPP, with 1000 kg-years of raw exposure each. We assumemore »« less

Indirect Dark Matter detection from Dwarf satellites: joint expectations from astrophysics and supersymmetry

Journal Article Martinez, Gregory D. ; Bullock, James S. ; Kaplinghat, Manoj ; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

We present a general methodology for determining the gamma-ray flux from annihilation of dark matter particles in Milky Way satellite galaxies, focusing on two promising satellites as examples: Segue 1 and Draco. We use the SuperBayeS code to explore the best-fitting regions of the Constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (CMSSM) parameter space, and an independent MCMC analysis of the dark matter halo properties of the satellites using published radial velocities. We present a formalism for determining the boost from halo substructure in these galaxies and show that its value depends strongly on the extrapolation of the concentration-mass (c(M)) relation formore »« less
