Big-bang nucleosynthesis and the relic abundance of dark matter in a stau-neutralino coannihilation scenario
2008
A scenario of the Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis is analyzed within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model which is consistent with a stau-neutralino coannihilation scenario to explain the relic abundance of dark matter. We find that we can account for the possible descrepancy of the abundance of $\mathrm{^{7}Li}$ between the observation and the prediction of the Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis by taking the mass of the neutralino as $300 \mathrm{GeV}$ and the mass difference between the stau and the neutralino as $(100 -- 120) MeV$. We can therefore simultaneously explain the abundance of the dark matter and that of $\mathrm{^{7}Li}$ by these values of parameters. The lifetime of staus in this scena…
The First Three Seconds: a Review of Possible Expansion Histories of the Early Universe
2020
It is commonly assumed that the energy density of the Universe was dominated by radiation between reheating after inflation and the onset of matter domination 54,000 years later. While the abundance of light elements indicates that the Universe was radiation dominated during Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN), there is scant evidence that the Universe was radiation dominated prior to BBN. It is therefore possible that the cosmological history was more complicated, with deviations from the standard radiation domination during the earliest epochs. Indeed, several interesting proposals regarding various topics such as the generation of dark matter, matter-antimatter asymmetry, gravitational waves,…

Slow-roll corrections in multi-field inflation: a separate universes approach
2018
In view of cosmological parameters being measured to ever higher precision, theoretical predictions must also be computed to an equally high level of precision. In this work we investigate the impact on such predictions of relaxing some of the simplifying assumptions often used in these computations. In particular, we investigate the importance of slow-roll corrections in the computation of multi-field inflation observables, such as the amplitude of the scalar spectrum $P_\zeta$, its spectral tilt $n_s$, the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ and the non-Gaussianity parameter $f_{NL}$. To this end we use the separate universes approach and $\delta N$ formalism, which allows us to consider slow-roll…
Cosmological promising parameters of stau in the minimal supersymmetric standard model
2009
We find that we can account for the possible descrepancy of the primordial abundance of 7 Li between the observation and the prediction of the Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis in a scenario of the Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis with the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. This scenario is consistent with a stau-neutralino coannihilation scenario to explain the relic abundance of dark matter. The solution to the discrepancy is given by taking the values of parameters; the mass of the neutralino as 300 GeV and the mass difference between the stau and the neutralino as (100 – 120) MeV.
