Neutralino relic density in supersymmetric GUTs with no-scale boundary conditions above the unification scale
Abstract
We investigate SU(5) and SO(10) GUTs with vanishing scalar masses and trilinear scalar couplings at a scale higher than the unification scale. The parameter space of the models, further constrained by b-τ Yukawa coupling unification, consists of a common gaugino mass and of β. We analyze the low energy phenomenology, finding that A-pole annihilations of neutralinos and/or coannihilations with the lightest stau drive the relic density within the cosmologically preferred range in a significant region of the allowed parameter space. Implications for neutralino direct detection and for CERN LHC experiments are also discussed.
