Dark matter in a constrained next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model

We explore the parameter space of a constrained next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model with grand unified theory scale boundary conditions, and find regions where the relic density of the lightest neutralino is compatible with the WMAP (Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe) measurement. We emphasize differences from the minimal supersymmetric standard model: cases where annihilation of the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) occurs via a Higgs resonance at low values of tanβ and cases where the LSP has a large singlino component. The particle spectrum as well as theoretical and collider constraints are calculated with NMSSMTools . All neutralino annihilation and coannihilation processes are then computed with micrOMEGAs , taking into account higher order corrections to the Higgs sector.
