Significant impact of CBBN on CMSSM viability
Refined calculations of ^6Li production cross section
Abstract
Catalyzed big bang nucleosynthesis (CBBN) can lead to an overproduction of ^6Li in gravitino dark matter scenarios in which the lighter stau is the lightest Standard Model superpartner. Based on a treatment using the state-of-the-art result for the catalyzed ^6Li production cross section, we update the resulting constraint within the framework of the constrained minimal supersymmetric Standard Model (CMSSM). We confront our numerical findings with recently derived conservative limits on the gaugino mass parameter and the reheating temperature.
