DUCCIO PAPPADOPULO
(California U., Berkeley)
Descrizione
The observed values of the cosmological constant and the
abundance of dark matter can be understood, using certain measures, by
imposing the anthropic requirement that density perturbations go non-linear
and virialize to form haloes. This requires a probability distribution
favoring low amounts of dark matter, i.e. low value of the axion scale f for
the QCD axion and low values of the superpartner mass scale for LSP thermal
relics.
