  1.

  2. Motivation • No absolutely stable collisionless particles in a simple Randall-Sundrum model ( c.f. Flat Extra-Dimension: KK parity KK Dark Matter Dines et al ‘99, Appelquist et al ‘00,Cheng et al ‘02, Servant et al ‘02, Agashe & Servant ‘04, ‘05) • Particles with the life-time longer than the age of the Universe  Sterile (chargeless, right-handed) Neutrino Advantages of 5D compared with 4D for sterile neutrino dark matter scenario • Fine-tuning ameliorated (thanks to warp factor and small wave function overlaps) • Production mechanism (radion decay) Can be either Cold or Warm Dark Matter

  3. Warm DM: Free-streams erasing the inhomogeneities • Warm dark matter: bigger free-streaming than that of cold dark matter • Missing satellite problem (satellite: small galaxies, the mass 10-3 of Milky Way galaxy) • Cusp/core problem Simple warm dark matter model accounting for all the dark matter in the universe is excluded. ‘Simple’ warm dark model: Sterile neutrino produced from the active-sterile neutrino mixing (Dodelson-Widrow ‘94) Lyman-alpha forrest: lower limit 10 keV X-ray: upper bound 8 keV Our scenario: Radion decay produces sterile neutrinos We assume negligible mixing production, negligible Yukawa coupling (c.f. • Large lepton asymmetry : Shi&Fuller ‘99 • Additional singlet scalar : Kusenko ‘06 • Inflaton : Shaposhnikov and Tkachev ‘06 • Subdominant warm dark matter: Palazzo, Cumberbatch, Solsar, Silk ‘07)

  15. Examples Lyman-alpha: lower limit 10 keV Sterile Neutrino dark matter model in 4D typically suffers from fine-tunings , which is relaxed in 5D.

  17. <<TeV (e.g, 10-9TeV) Mass splitting due to the Majorana mass confined on Planck brane Lepton number violation leads to the small mass splittings

  18. TeV Scale Warped Leptogenesis (T. Gherghetta, K.K. & M. Yamahuchi, arXiv:0705.1749[hep-ph]) ~TeV Enough baryon asymmetry even at TeV scale! (c.f. T~1010GeV for standard leptogenesis.)

  19. Discussion/Conclusion Future work in progress: Phase transitions (e.g. entropy dilution etc), Thermal corrections etc (Warm, Cold) Dark Matter in Warped Extra Dimensions • No absolutely stable collisionless/chargeless particles • Long-lived Sterile neutrino Produced by radion decay Fine-tunings ameliorated TeV Scale Warped Leptogenesis • Global symmetry breaking term (Majorana mass) confined on Planck brane while RH Neutrino localized around TeV brane Small mass splitting for big CP asymmetry at TeV scale
