Description

Most of the matter in the Universe consists of non-luminous (dark) matter and baryons. The amount of these components are typically predicted independently from each other. In this talk, I show how to calculate both of these components simultaneously. I reveal that the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard particle model provides a common origin for these main components of matter. I also show that this scenario is not only feasible but also testable at present and near future colliders, low energy and dark matter direct detection experiments in a complementary way.
