Astrophage of neutron stars from supersymmetric dark matter Q-balls
Ian M. Shoemaker
The gauge-mediated model of supersymmetry breaking implies that stable non-topological solitons, Q-balls, could form in the early universe and comprise the dark matter. It is shown…

Properties of Q-ball dark matter: moving away from flat directions
Ian M. Shoemaker
Gauge-mediated models of supersymmetry-breaking imply that stable Q-balls can form in the early universe and act as dark matter. All stable Q-balls in the MSSM are associated with…

The ground states of baryoleptonic Q-balls in supersymmetric models
Ian M. Shoemaker, Alexander Kusenko
In supersymmetric generalizations of the Standard Model, all stable Q-balls are associated with some flat directions. We show that, if the flat direction has both the baryon number…
