Abstract

We study the implications of a large baryogenesis temperature, TB=O(1010T_B = O(10^{10} GeV), on the mass spectrum of superparticles in supersymmetric extensions of the standard model. Models with a neutralino as lightest superparticle (LSP) are excluded. A consistent picture is obtained with the gravitino as LSP, followed by a higgsino-like neutralino (NSP). Gravitinos with masses from 10 to 100 GeV may be the dominant component of dark matter.
