20 June 06Feng 1 DARK MATTER AND SUPERGRAVITY Jonathan Feng University of California, Irvine 20 June 2006 Strings 2006, Beijing

20 June 06Feng 2 COSMOLOGY  NEW PHYSICS Cosmology today provides much of the best evidence for new microphysics What can we learn from dark matter about SUSY – SUSY breaking, its mediation, superpartner spectrum, expected signals? Work with Arvind Rajaraman, Fumihiro Takayama, Jose Ruiz Cembranos, Shufang Su, Bryan Smith

20 June 06Feng 3 DARK MATTER: WHAT WE KNOW How much there is:  DM = 0.23 ± 0.04 What it’s not: Not short-lived:  > years Not baryonic:  B = 0.04 ± Not hot: “slow” DM is required to form structure

20 June 06Feng 4 DARK MATTER: WHAT WE DON’T KNOW What is its mass? What is its spin? What are its other quantum numbers and interactions? Is it absolutely stable? What is the origin of the dark matter particle? Is dark matter composed of one particle species or many? How was it produced? When was it produced? Why does  DM have the observed value? What was its role in structure formation? How is dark matter distributed now?

20 June 06Feng 5 Dark Matter Candidates Given the few constraints, it is not surprising that there are many candidates: axions, thermal gravitinos, neutralinos, Kaluza-Klein particles, wimpzillas, self-interacting particles, self-annihilating particles, fuzzy dark matter, superWIMPs,… Masses and interaction strengths span many, many orders of magnitude But independent of cosmology, new particles are required to understand the weak scale. What happens when we add these to the universe?

20 June 06Feng 6 Cosmological Implications (1) Assume the new particle is initially in thermal equilibrium:  ↔  f f (2) Universe cools: N = N EQ ~ e  m/T (3)  s “freeze out”: N ~ const (1) (2) (3)

20 June 06Feng 7 The amount of dark matter left over is inversely proportional to the annihilation cross section:  DM ~  What is the constant of proportionality? Impose a natural relation:     k  2 /m 2, so  DM  m 2  DM ~ 0.1 for m ~ 100 GeV – 1 TeV. Cosmology alone tells us we should explore the weak scale. HEPAP LHC/ILC Subpanel (2006) [band width from k = 0.5 – 2, S and P wave]

20 June 06Feng 8 IMPLICATIONS Electroweak theories often predict relevant amounts of dark matter. In fact, dark matter is easier to explain than no dark matter: Exp. constraints ↔ discrete symmetries ↔ stable DM In SUSY, this requires that the gravitino be heavier than the neutralino. This disfavors low-scale (gauge-mediated) SUSY breaking, favors high-scale (gravity-mediated) SUSY breaking: m 3/2 ~F/M Pl > m  ~F/M med  M med ~ M Pl, F ~ GeV SUSY does not decouple cosmologically:  ~ m 2. Low energy SUSY is motivated independent of naturalness.

20 June 06Feng 10 IDENTIFYING DARK MATTER (1) (2) (3) Particle physics   A, dark matter abundance prediction Compare to observed dark matter abundance How well can we do?

20 June 06Feng 11 Contributions to Neutralino WIMP Annihilation

20 June 06Feng 12 WMAP (current) Planck (~2010) LHC (“best case scenario”) ILC LCC1 RELIC DENSITY DETERMINATIONS Agreement  identity of dark matter, understanding of universe back to t ~ 1 ns, T ~ 10 GeV (cf. BBN at t ~ 1 s, T ~ MeV) ALCPG Cosmology Subgroup

20 June 06Feng 13 SuperWIMP Dark Matter Collider signals (and other dark matter searches) rely on DM having weak force interactions. Is this required? Strictly speaking, no – the only required DM interactions are gravitational. But the relic density “coincidence” strongly prefers weak interactions. Is there an exception to this rule? Feng, Rajaraman, Takayama (2003)

20 June 06Feng 14 High-scale SUSY breaking supergravity has a weak-scale mass G̃. Suppose it’s the LSP. WIMPs freeze out as usual But then all WIMPs decay to gravitinos after M Pl 2 /M W 3 ~ a month SuperWIMPs: The Basic Idea Gravitinos naturally inherit the right density, but interact only gravitationally – they are superWIMPs G̃G̃ WIMP ≈

20 June 06Feng 15 SuperWIMP Implications SuperWIMPs evade all particle dark matter searches; all event rates R  R. Apparently even more troubling is the gravitino problem: late decays to the gravitino destroy the successes of Big Bang nucleosynthesis. Weinberg noted that the superpartner mass scale should be > 10 TeV for decays to happens before BBN. The scenario appears excluded by cosmology and untestable in particle/astroparticle experiments. Luckily, both conclusions are too hasty…

20 June 06Feng 16 Big Bang Nucleosynthesis Late decays may modify light element abundances Cyburt, Ellis, Fields, Olive (2002); Kawasaki et al. (2004); Jedamzik (2004); Cerdeno et al. (2005) Fields, Sarkar, PDG (2002)   (Z, , h) G̃ excluded, but much of l̃  l G̃ ok Feng, Rajaraman, Takayama (2003) Grid : predictions For l̃  l G̃ CMB

20 June 06Feng 17 Structure Formation Cembranos, Feng, Rajaraman, Takayama (2005) Kaplinghat (2005), Jedamzik (2005) Cold dark matter (WIMPs) seeds structure formation. Simulations may indicate more central mass and more cuspy halos than observed – cold dark matter is too cold. SuperWIMPs are produced at t ~ month with large velocity, smooth out small scale structure. SuperWIMPs combine Cold DM (  ~ 0.1) and Warm DM (structure formation) virtues.

20 June 06Feng 18 SUPERWIMPS AT THE LHC Cosmology  metastable charged sleptons with lifetimes of days to months Sleptons can be trapped and moved to a quiet environment to study their decays l̃  l G̃ A 1 m thick shell of water can catch ~ 10 4 sleptons per year Feng, Smith (2004) Hamaguchi, Yuno, Nayaka, Nojiri (2004) Ellis et al. (2005) Slepton trap Reservoir

20 June 06Feng 19 What we learn from slepton decays We are sensitive to (M * -suppressed) gravitational effects in a particle physics experiment Measurement of m l̃,   m G̃   G̃. SuperWIMP contribution to dark matter  F. Supersymmetry breaking scale  BBN, CMB, structure formation in the lab Measurement of m l̃,  and E l  m G̃ and M *  Measurement of G Newton on fundamental particle scale  Gravitino is graviton partner, can quantitatively confirm supergravity Buchmuller, Hamaguchi, Ratz, Yanagida (2004) Feng, Rajaraman, Takayama (2004)

20 June 06Feng 20 CONCLUSIONS Cosmology suggests there may be new particles at the weak scale, independent of naturalness In SUSY, dark matter relic density “coincidence”  high-scale (gravity-mediated) SUSY breaking If neutralino WIMPs, LHC will discover them in the next few years If gravitino superWIMPs, LHC is likely to produce long-lived sleptons that decay to gravitinos, allowing the quantitative confirmation of supergravity
