Outline

• A unified model of dark matter and dark energy ---- quintessino model

• The Milky Way diffuse gamma rays and contribution from neutralino annihilation

Unified model of dark matter and dark energy

• Possible candidates of dark energy are the cosmological constant or a scalar field --- the quintessence field (a dynamical fundamental scalar field).

• The motivation is to build a unified model of dark matter and dark energy in the framework of supersymmetry.

• requiring a shift symmetry of the system, the quintessence is always kept light and the potential is not changed by quantum effects. If is the LSP, it is stable and forms DM.

Shift symmetry and interaction• To keep the shift symmetry the quintesssence fiel

d can only coupled with matter field derivatively. We consider the following interactions and derive their supersymmetric form:

Effects of the model

• Suppress the matter power spectrum at small scale.

• Faraday rotation induced by quintessence.

• Suppress the abundance of 7Li.

• The lightest super partner of SM particles is stau.

• High energy comic neutrinos hit the earth and the heavy particles are produced and detected at L3C/IceCube

• Due to the R-parity conservation, always

two charged particles are produced

simultaneously and leave two parallel

tracks at the detector.

Production at colliders

• If is the LSP of SM, all SUSY particles will finally decay into and leave a track in the detector.

• Collecting these , we can study its decay process. (We can even study gravity at collider.)

• LHC/ILC can at most produce

Diffuse gamma rays of the MW

• COS-B and EGRET (20keV~30GeV) observed diffuse gamma rays, measured its spectra.

• Diffuse emission comes from nucleon-gas interaction, electron inverse Compton and bremsstrahlung. Different process dominant different parts of spectrum, therefore the large scale nucleon, electron components can be revealed by diffuse gamma.

GeV excess of spectrum• Based on local s

pectrum gives consistent gamma in 30 MeV~500 MeV, outside there is excess.

• Harder proton spectrum explain diffuse gamma, however inconsistent with antiproton and position measurements.

• Hard proton or electron injection index

Calculate cosmic rays

• Adjust the propagation parameter to satisfy all the observation data and at the same time satisfy the egret data after adding the dark matter contribution

Conclusion

• A DM-DE unified model requires stau being the NLSP (gravitino model). Make different phenomenology.

• Taking the contribution from DM annihilation into account the EGRET data can be explained perfectly. (Without DM it is difficult to explain the GeV excess even there are large uncertainties of cosmic ray propagation).

• EGRET data requires the neutralino mass be in the range 40~50 GeV and DM distribution be very cuspy.
