Leptogenesis from $\widetilde{N}$-dominated early universe

Abstract

We investigate in detail the leptogenesis by the decay of coherent right-handed sneutrino $\widetilde{N}$ having dominated the energy density of the early universe, which was originally proposed by HM and TY. Once the $\widetilde{N}$ dominant universe is realized, the amount of the generated lepton asymmetry (and hence baryon asymmetry) is determined only by the properties of the right-handed neutrino, regardless of the history before it dominates the universe. Moreover, thanks to the entropy production by the decay of the right-handed sneutrino, thermally produced relics are sufficiently diluted. In particular, the cosmological gravitino problem can be avoided even when the reheating temperature of the inflation is higher than $10^{10}\GeV$, in a wide range of the gravitino mass $m_{3/2}\simeq 10\MeV$--$100\TeV$. If the gravitino mass is in the range $m_{3/2}\simeq 10\MeV$--$1\GeV$ as in the some gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking models, the dark matter in our universe can be dominantly composed of the gravitino. Quantum fluctuation of the $\widetilde{N}$ during inflation causes an isocurvature fluctuation which may be detectable in the future.
