Nonthermal dark matter in mirage mediation
arXiv:0709.3918 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.76.123501
Abstract
In mirage-mediation models there exists a modulus field whose mass is O(1000) TeV and its late-decay may significantly change the standard thermal relic scenario of the dark matter. We study nonthermal production of the dark matter directly from the modulus decay, and find that for some parameter regions non-thermally produced neutralinos can become the dark matter.
