Neutralino Dark Matter in Mirage Mediation
We study the phenomenology of neutralino dark matter (DM) in mirage mediation
scenario of supersymmetry breaking which results from the moduli stabilization
in some string/brane models. Depending upon the model parameters, especially
the anomaly to modulus mediation ratio determined by the moduli stabilization
mechanism, the nature of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) changes
from Bino-like neutralino to Higgsino-like one via Bino-Higgsino mixing region.
For the Bino-like LSP, the standard thermal production mechanism can give a
right amount of relic DM density through the stop/stau-neutralino
coannihilation or the pseudo-scalar Higgs resonance process. We also examine
the prospect of direct and indirect DM detection in various parameter regions
of mirage mediation. Neutralino DM in galactic halo might be detected by near
future direct detection experiments in the case of Bino-Higgsino mixed LSP. The
gamma ray flux from Galactic Center might be detectable also if the DM density
profile takes a cuspy shape.Comment: One reference adde
