A specific D-brane Model the SM gauge groups and 3 generations live on different Dp branes. In this model, scalar masses are not completely universal and gaugino mass unificaion can be relaxed. the string scale is around GeV rather than GUT scale. Free parameters:

Indirect detection of Neutralino WIMP (neutrino telescopes : SuperK, Amanda, Antares, IceCube …) Neutralino in the galactic halo can be captured into SUN (or Earth) by Neutralino-nucleus scattering The neutrinos can be detected via conversion in neutrino telescope The accumulated Neutralinos annihilate into SM particles, which ultimately yields energetic neutrino flux The muon flux strongly depends on Neutralino-nucleus scattering

Acoustic Peak Region, (90 < l < 900) : described by the physics of photon-baryon fluid responding to fluctuation in the gravitational potential produced by the Dark Matter. The Position of the First Peak Geometry of the universe. The Amplitude of the First Peak depends on Omega_b h^2, Omega_m h^2 Increasing O_m h^2 decreases the peak height. (reducing the effects of “radiation driving”) The Amplitude of the Second Peak Increasing omega_b h^2 decreases its height (increasing the inertia in the photon-baryon fluid) Increasing n_s increases the height of the peak relative to the first. The Amplitude of the Third Peak Measuring the third peak helps mostly in measuring n_s. ( long l base line makes the ratio to the first peak sensitive to n_s) Age of the universe in a flat geometry
46
If the LSP is bino-like, slepton masses are moderate and one is far away from s-channel poles, the LSP mass density is essentially determined by t-channel right-handed slepton exchange. 1.A pure bino couples only to fermion and sfermion, or Higgs and higgsino. Higgsino exchange is suppressed for 2. in mSUGRA, therefore right-handed slepton exchange is least suppressed by large mass in the propagator. 3. The hypercharges of sleptons satisfy the relation therefore when sfermion masses are equal.
47
III. decays in MSSM In the Standard Model the decay proceeds through Z penguin and W exchange box diagrams. the decay is helicity suppressed due to angular momentum conservation. Current Experimental Limit (90% CL) (CDF) (D0, FPCP04)
48
In the MSSM (Babu,Kolda 2000) Fermion mass eigenstates can be different from the Higgs interaction eigenstates. This generates Higgs-mediated FCNCs.

V. Conclusions We investigated the correlation between scalar cross section for neutralino-proton scattering and branching ratio of decays in mSUGRA, Non-Univ. Higgs mass and a D-brane model. Both observables increase as increase and decrease. Therefore, we find a positive correlation between two observables, though the detailed predictions differ between models. Current upper limit on the branching ratio already puts strong constraint on the model parameter space which could lead to quite large neutralino-proton scattering cross section.
