We show that Q-balls naturally exist in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) with soft SUSY breaking terms of the minimal N=1 SUGRA type. These are associated with the F- and D-flat directions of the scalar potential once…

In the MSSM, LSP dark matter could arise from the decay of B-balls rather than from thermal relics, with a quite different dependence on the MSSM parameters and a natural correlation with the baryon asymmetry. We discuss the constraints…

We investigate the scenario that one flat direction creates baryon asymmetry of the unverse, while Q balls from another direction can be the dark matter in the gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking for high-scale inflation. Isocurvature…

Fragmentation of the Affleck-Dine condensate into Q-balls could fill the Universe with dark matter either in the form of stable baryonic balls, or LSP produced from the decay of unstable Q-balls. The dark matter and the ordinary matter in…

The minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) has a truly supersymmetric way to explain both the baryon asymmetry and cold dark matter in the present Universe, that is, ``Affleck-Dine baryo/DM-genesis.'' The associated late-time decay of…

In this talk we discuss the origin and nature of the dark matter in the Affleck-Dine (AD) baryogenesis. The AD baryogenesis via most of the flat directions predict formations of large Q-balls, and a great number of the lightest…

We investigate that the two types of the Q balls explain the baryon asymmetry and the dark matter of the universe in the gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking. The gauge-mediation type Q balls of one flat direction produce baryon asymmetry,…

The gauge-mediated model of supersymmetry breaking implies that stable non-topological solitons, Q-balls, could form in the early universe and comprise the dark matter. It is shown that the inclusion of the effects from gravity-mediation…

We investigate the Q-ball decay into the axino dark matter in the gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking. In our scenario, the Q ball decays mainly into nucleons and partially into axinos to account respectively for the baryon asymmetry and…

Motivated by recent developments, we explore some issues in Affleck-Dine baryogenesis. We consider in greater detail the role of thermal effects in the production of baryon number. We find that these effects are important even for rather…

We investigate the Q-ball decay in the gauge-mediated SUSY breaking. Q balls decay mainly into nucleons, and partially into gravitinos, while they are kinematically forbidden to decay into sparticles which would be cosmologically harmful.…

We show that a class of Affleck--Dine baryogenesis directly relates the observed mass density of baryons, \Omega_{B}, to that of dark matter, \Omega_{DM}. In this scenario, the ratio of baryon to dark matter mass density is solely…

Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model contain non-topological solitons, Q-balls, which can be stable and can be a form of cosmological dark matter. Understanding the interaction of SUSY Q-balls with matter fermions is important…

In this thesis we investigate the stationary properties and formation process of a class of nontopological solitons, namely Q-balls. We explore both the quantum-mechanical and classical stability of Q-balls that appear in polynomial,…

We show that the $\Omega_b - \Omega_{DM}$ coincidence can naturally be explained in a framework where axino cold dark matter is predominantly produced in non-thermal processes involving decays of Q-balls formed in Affleck-Dinebaryogenesis.…

In the MSSM with gravity mediated supersymmetry breaking, there may exist unstable but long-lived solitons carrying large baryonic charge, or B-balls. These decay well afterthe electroweak phase transition, giving rise to B-ball…

Supersymmetric extensions of the standard model predict the existence of non-topological solitons, $Q$-balls. Assuming the standard cosmological history preceded by inflation, $Q$-balls can form in the early universe and can make up the…

Pangenesis is the mechanism for jointly producing the visible and dark matter asymmetries via Affleck-Dine dynamics in a baryon-symmetric universe. The baryon-symmetric feature means that the dark asymmetry cancels the visible baryon…

Stable baryonic Q-balls, which appear in supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, could form at the end of cosmological inflation from fragmentation of the Affleck-Dine condensate. They can be dark matter. The existing bounds rely…

We comment on a statement made in arXiv:1107.0403, which implies that the model of gravitino dark matter from Q-ball decay we presented in arXiv:1101.5328 is generally ruled out by the effect of NLSP decay on BBN. We explain why this…
