4 Motivation for Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter What Do We Know about Dark Matter? Observed on various scales through its gravitational interaction Contributes significantly to the energy density of the universe [M. Whittle] [ESA / Planck Collaboration] [NASA / Clowe et al.] Dark matter properties known from observations No electromagnetic and strong interactions At least gravitational and at most weak-scale interactions Non-baryonic Cold (maybe warm) Extremely long-lived but can be unstable!

7 Motivation for Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter Gravitino Dark Matter: Stable or Unstable? Stable Gravitino Dark Matter Typical in gauge mediation with conserved R-parity No direct detection signal expected: σ N M 4 Pl No annihilation signal expected: σ ann M 4 Pl Collider signals from long-lived NLSP expected Long-lived NLSP can be in conflict with BBN Unstable Gravitino Dark Matter [The Particle Zoo] Typical candidate in models with R-parity violation Lifetime larger than the age of the universe No direct detection signal expected: σ N M 4 Pl Decays could lead to observable cosmic-ray signals Collider signals from long-lived NLSP expected Michael Grefe (IFT UAM/CSIC) Antiproton Limits on Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter UCM 22 May / 29
8 Motivation for Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter Models with Gravitino DM and R-Parity Violation Bilinear R-parity violation (BRpV) [Takayama, Yamaguchi (2000), Restrepo et al. (2011)] R-parity violation is source of neutrino masses and mixings Predictive model: gravitino mass constrained to be below few GeV µ from ν Supersymmetric SM (µνssm) [López-Fogliani, Muñoz (2005)] Electroweak see-saw mechanism for neutrino masses Solves the µ-problem similar to the NMSSM Predictive model: gravitino mass constrained to be below few GeV Bilinear R-parity violation from B L breaking [Buchmüller et al. (2007)] Consistent gravitino cosmology with thermal leptogenesis and BBN O(10) GeV < m 3/2 < O(500) GeV, gluino mass below a few TeV Trilinear R-parity violation [Moreau et al. (2001), Lola et al. (2007)] Phenemenological study, trilinear terms generically expected without R-parity Michael Grefe (IFT UAM/CSIC) Antiproton Limits on Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter UCM 22 May / 29
9 Motivation for Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter Why Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter? Smallness of observed neutrino masses motivates seesaw mechanism Explains baryon asymmetry via thermal leptogenesis [Fukugita, Yanagida (1986)] Needs high reheating temperature: T R 10 9 GeV [Davidson, Ibarra (2002)] Supergravity predicts gravitino as spin-3/2 superpartner of the graviton Gravitinos are thermally produced after inflation in the early universe: ( ) 3 ( ) ( ) ( ) Ω TP 3/2 h2 ω i gi M2 i ki m3/2 T R 3 m3/2 2 ln g i 100 GeV GeV i=1 Problem in scenarios with neutralino dark matter: Gravitino decays suppressed by Planck scale: ( τ 3/2 M2 Pl 100 GeV 3 years m 3 m 3/2 3/2 ) 3 [Pradler, Steffen (2006)] Decays with τ O( s) spoil BBN Cosmological gravitino problem Michael Grefe (IFT UAM/CSIC) Antiproton Limits on Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter UCM 22 May / 29

11 Motivation for Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter Why Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter? Relation between gravitino mass and reheating temperature: Delahaye & Grefe Reheating Temperature T R GeV excluded by gluino searches m g 500 GeV no thermal leptogenesis m g 10 TeV disfavoured by hierarchy problem Gravitino not LSP With thermal leptogenesis correct relic density possible for O(10) GeV < m 3/2 < O(500) GeV Gravitino dark matter [Buchmüller et al. (2008))] Michael Grefe (IFT UAM/CSIC) Antiproton Limits on Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter UCM 22 May / 29
12 Motivation for Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter Why Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter? Still problematic: NLSP can only decay to gravitino LSP: τ NLSP 48πM2 Plm 2 3/2 m 5 NLSP ( ) 2 ( m3/2 150 GeV 9 days 10 GeV m NLSP ) 5 Late NLSP decays are in conflict with BBN Cosmological gravitino problem Michael Grefe (IFT UAM/CSIC) Antiproton Limits on Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter UCM 22 May / 29

Other options: Choose harmless NLSP like sneutrino [Covi, Kraml (2007)] Dilute NLSP density by late entropy production [Buchmüller et al. (2006)] Michael Grefe (IFT UAM/CSIC) Antiproton Limits on Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter UCM 22 May / 29

R-parity violation can be parametrized by sneutrino VEV: ξ = ν v Bound from contribution to neutrino masses Upper bound: Below limit on sum of neutrino masses: ξ O( ) Cosmological bounds on R-violating couplings Lower bound: The NLSP must decay before the time of BBN: ξ O( ) Upper bound: No washout of lepton/baryon asymmetry: ξ O(10 6 ) Tiny bilinear R-parity violation can be related to U(1) B L breaking [Buchmüller et al.

Rich phenomenology instead of elusive gravitinos: A long-lived NLSP could be observed at the LHC [Buchmüller et al. (2007), Bobrovskyi et al. (2010, 2011, 2012)] Gravitino decays can possibly be observed at indirect detection experiments [Takayama et al. (2000), Buchmüller et al. (2007), Ibarra, Tran (2008), Ishiwata et al. (2008) etc.] Gravitinos could be observed at colliders and in the spectra of cosmic rays! Michael Grefe (IFT UAM/CSIC) Antiproton Limits on Decaying Gravitino Dark Matter UCM 22 May / 29
