DARK MATTER Best evidence for new physics –Unambiguous –Intimately connected to central problems: electroweak symmetry breaking and structure formation Candidate masses and interactions span many orders of magnitude HEPAP/AAAC DMSAG Subpanel (2007) 13 May 09Feng 2

HIDDEN SECTORS All solid evidence for dark matter is gravitational Perhaps dark matter is hidden, that is, has no standard model gauge interactions This is not a new idea, but has traditionally suffered from drawbacks –Too much model-building freedom, lack of predictivity –Lack of experimental signals –Missing theoretical motivations of more popular DM candidates 13 May 09Feng 3

THE WIMP MIRACLE Assume a new (heavy) particle X is initially in thermal equilibrium Its relic density is m X ~ m weak ~ 100 GeV g X ~ g weak ~ 0.6 Remarkable coincidence: particle physics independently predicts particles with the right density to be dark matter Kolb, Turner    X ~ May 09Feng 4

WIMP IMPLICATIONS  qq Efficient annihilation now (Indirect detection) Efficient scattering now (Direct detection) Efficient production now (Particle colliders) WIMPS must interact with the SM efficiently 13 May 09Feng 5

 qq Efficient annihilation now (Indirect detection) Efficient scattering now (Direct detection) Efficient production now (Particle colliders) EXCITING! WIMP IMPLICATIONS WIMPS must interact with the SM efficiently 13 May 09Feng 6

BACKGROUND CHECK: THE FLAVOR PROBLEM WIMP miracle  WIMPs are in theories of electroweak symmetry breaking EWSB theories generically suffer from the new physics flavor problem –new particles violate flavor bounds by many orders of magnitude –  m K,  K,   e   e  conversion, electron EDM, neutron EDM Example: neutralino DM –Neutralino stable  it is the LSP, m G̃ > m  –m G̃ characterizes the size of gravitational effects, which generically violate flavor symmetries –Current bounds require m G̃ < 0.01 m  –There are ways to reconcile  DM with flavor constraints, but none is especially compelling 13 May 09Feng 7

The most elegant theories of EWSB that naturally conserve flavor are SUSY models with gauge-mediated SUSY-breaking Dine, Nelson, Nir, Shirman (1995); Dimopoulos, Dine, Raby, Thomas (1996); … Can we find DM candidates in these models? 3 key features –m G̃ << m  –Several sectors of particles –Superpartner masses m ~ (gauge couplings) 2 FLAVOR-CONSERVING MODELS 13 May 09Feng 8

Thermal gravitinos: the original SUSY DM scenario Pagels, Primack (1982) Universe cools from T ~ M Pl, gravitinos decouple while relativistic, expect n G̃ ~ n eq (cf. neutrinos)  G̃ h 2 ≈ 0.1 (m G̃ / 80 eV) Lyman-  constraints  m G̃ > 2 keV Viel et al. (2006); Seljak et al. (2006) Could be saved by late entropy production Baltz, Murayama (2001) No use of WIMP miracle PREVIOUS SUGGESTIONS 1 13 May 09Feng 9

Messenger sneutrino DM Han, Hempfling (1997) Messenger sneutrino has right relic density for m ~ 1-3 TeV No use of WIMP miracle PREVIOUS SUGGESTIONS 2 13 May 09Feng 10

Goldilocks SUSY Feng,, Smith, Takayama (2007) Eliminate both skeletons simultaneously:  overproduced, decays to gravitino that is light enough to solve the flavor problem, but heavy enough to be all of DM   ~ m  2,  G̃ ~ m  m G̃ ; flavor  m G̃ / m  < 0.01 Solution guaranteed for sufficiently large m , m G̃ But is it natural? Consider mGMSB PREVIOUS SUGGESTIONS 3 13 May 09Feng 11

GOLDILOCKS SUSY   ~ 100, m  ~ 1 TeV, m G̃ ~ 1 GeV Uses the WIMP miracle Astrophysics constraints  CP solved, warm G̃ DM N 5 =1, tan  =10,  >0  LSP BBN EM BBN had  LSP 13 May 09Feng 12

A NEW APPROACH Consider standard GMSB with a single SUSY breaking sector and one or more hidden sectors Each hidden sector has its own matter content, gauge groups, couplings Feng, Kumar (2008) 13 May 09Feng 13

Particle Physics Superpartner masses depend on gauge couplings Cosmology  depends only on the SUSY Breaking sector:  X ~  WIMP ~  DM Hidden sector generically has the right relic density THE WIMPLESS MIRACLE 13 May 09Feng 14

The thermal relic density constrains only one combination of g X and m X These models map out the remaining degree of freedom This framework decouples the WIMP miracle from WIMPs, candidates have a range of masses/couplings, but always the right relic density The flavor problem becomes a virtue Naturally accommodates multi-component DM, all with relevant  mXmX gXgX THE WIMPLESS MIRACLE WIMPs WIMPless DM 13 May 09Feng 15

HOW LARGE CAN HIDDEN SECTORS BE? Hidden sectors contribute to expansion rate BBN: N = 3.24 ± 1.2, excludes an identical copy of the MSSM Cyburt et al. (2004) But this is sensitive to temperature differences Feng, Tu, Yu (2008)  RH = ratio of reheat temperatures MSSM MSSM (1 gen) 13 May 09Feng 16

WIMPLESS DETECTION WIMPless DM has no SM gauge interactions, but may interact through Yukawa couplings For example, introduce connectors Y with both MSSM and hidden charge Y particles mediate both annihilation to and scattering with MSSM particles X X f f Y Feng, Kumar, Strigari (2008); Feng, Kumar, Learned, Strigari (2008) 13 May 09Feng 17

EXAMPLE Assume WIMPless DM X is a scalar, add fermion connectors Y, interacting through XX  ff preserves WIMPless miracle, as long as f < 1 For f = b, Y’s are “4th generation mirror quarks,” constrained by collider direct searches, precision electroweak, Yukawa perturbativity: 250 GeV < m Y < 500 GeV Kribs, Plehn, Spannowsky, Tait (2007); Fok, Kribs (2008) 13 May 09Feng 18

Collision rate should change as Earth’s velocity adds constructively/ destructively with the Sun’s. Drukier, Freese, Spergel (1986) DAMA (2008) DAMA: 8  signal with T ~ 1 year, max ~ June 2 DIRECT DETECTION: DAMA 13 May 09Feng 19

CHANNELING DAMA’s result is puzzling, in part because the favored region was considered excluded by others This may be ameliorated by astrophysics and channeling: in crystalline detectors, efficiency for nuclear recoil energy  photons depends on direction Channeling reduces threshold, shifts allowed region to lower masses. Consistency possible, but requires uncomfortably low WIMP masses (~ GeV) Gondolo, Gelmini (2005) Drobyshevski (2007), DAMA (2007) TEXONO (2007) 13 May 09Feng 20

DAMA AND SUPER-K WIMPless DM naturally explains DAMA with b ~ (cf. typical neutralino: m ~ 100 GeV,  SI ~10 -8 pb) DAMA may be corroborated if Super-K extends its through-going analysis to fully contained analysis sensitive to E ~ few GeV m Y = 400 GeV 13 May 09Feng 21

INDIRECT DETECTION Indirect searches also promising for low masses, even for smooth halos DAMA parameters, NFW, J ~ 4 Fermi Discovery Reach 13 May 09Feng 22

This requires that an m X particle be stable. Is this natural? HIDDEN CHARGED DM MSSM m w sparticles, W, Z, t ~GeV q, l 0 p, e, ,, G̃ Flavor-free MSSM O(1) Yukawas m X sparticles, W, Z, q, l,  ̃  or  0 g, ,, G̃ If the hidden sector is a flavor-free MSSM, natural DM candidate is any hidden charged particle, stabilized by exact U(1) EM symmetry; natural choice is X = hidden stau 13 May 09Feng 23

HIDDEN CHARGED DM Can DM have hidden charge? Many modifications to the standard CDM picture –Bound states form (and annihilate) in the early Universe –Annihilation is Sommerfeld enhanced at low velocities –Compton scattering X  h  X  h : DM stays in kinetic contact with the thermal bath to lower temperatures –Rutherford scattering XX  XX: self-interacting, collisional dark matter Constraints –Enhanced annihilation shouldn’t destroy the WIMPless miracle –Enhanced annihilation in protohalos shouldn’t violate bounds –Delayed kinetic decoupling shouldn’t erase too much small scale structure –Enhanced self-interactions shouldn’t violate bounds on collisional DM Feng, Kaplinghat, Tu, Yu (2009) 13 May 09Feng 24

BOUNDS ON SELF-INTERACTIONS Hidden charged particles exchange energy through Rutherford scattering Non-spherical galaxy cores  DM can’t be too collisional, require E/(dE/dt) > years  RH =0.8 tan  ~1  RH =0.1 tan  ~1  RH =0.1 tan  ~10 Excluded Feng, Kaplinghat, Tu, Yu (2009) Annihilates through weak (to neutrinos) and EM (to photons) m X ~ 1 GeV (100 GeV) allowed for tan  ~ 10 (1) Qualitatively different conclusions from U(1)-only case Ackerman, Buckley, Carroll, Kamionkowski (2008) 13 May 09Feng 25

BOUNDS ON ANNIHILATIONS At low v, annihilation is Sommerfeld enhanced by  /v Strong constraint from protohalos, formed at z ~ 200 with low velocity dispersion Kamionkowski, Profumo (2008) Bottom line –With connectors: annihilation to visible particles  m X < 10 GeV –Without connectors: annihilation to hidden particles, no constraints 13 May 09Feng 26  RH =0.1 tan  ~10  RH =0.1 tan  ~1  RH =0.8 tan  ~1 Feng, Kaplinghat, Tu, Yu (2009)

CONCLUSIONS Dark matter may be in a hidden sector WIMPless dark matter –Present in standard particle physics models (SUSY) –Generalizes WIMP miracle to MeV < m X < 10 TeV, <  X < 0.1 –In contrast to WIMPs, is naturally consistent with (and motivated by) the new physics flavor problem Signals –With connectors: DAMA, SuperK, Fermi, … –With hidden charge: collisional dark matter 13 May 09Feng 27
