Scientific paper
Several new effects have been investigated in recent analyses of supersymmetric dark matter. These include the effects of the uncertainties of wimp velocity distributions, of the uncertainties of quark densities, of large CP violating phases, of nonuniversalities of the soft SUSY breaking parameters at the unification scale and of coannihilation on supersymmetric dark matter. We review here some of these with emphasis on the effects of nonuniversalities of the gaugino masses at the unification scale on the neutralino-proton cross-section from scalar interactions. The review encompasses several models where gaugino mass nonuniversalities occur including SUGRA models and D brane models. One finds that gaugino mass nonuniversalities can increase the scalar cross-sections by as much as a factor of 10 and also significantly extend the allowed range of the neutralino mass consistent with constraints up to about 500 GeV. These results have important implications for the search for supersymmetric dark matter.
