Solving the Gravitino Problem by Axino

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2011-07-18 v2

Abstract

In a large class of supersymmetric (SUSY) axion model the mass of axino \axino\axino (a fermionic superpartner of the axion) is predicted as m\axinoO(1)m_{\axino} \lesssim {\cal O}(1) keV. Thus, the axino is the lightest SUSY particle (LSP). We pointed out that such a light axino provides a natural solution to the gravitino problem, if the gravitino is the next LSP. We derive a constraint on the reheating temperature TRT_R of inflation, TR1015T_R \lesssim 10^{15} GeV for the gravitino mass m3/2100m_{3/2} \simeq 100 GeV, which is much weaker than that obtained in the minimal SUSY standard model.
