Neutralino properties in the light of a further indication of an annual modulation effect in WIMP direct search
arXiv:hep-ph/9808456 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.59.095003
Abstract
We demonstrate that the further indication of a possible annual modulation effect, singled out by the DAMA/NaI experiment for WIMP direct detection, is widely compatible with an interpretation in terms of a relic neutralino as the major component of dark matter in the Universe. We discuss the supersymmetric features of this neutralino in the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) and their implications for searches at accelerators.
