Using BBN and WIMP relic density, the authors constrain the Yukawa gravity coupling α to about -0.017 to 0.018, with the lithium discrepancy still unexplained.

abstract
Cosmology now provides unambiguous, quantitative evidence for new particle physics. I discuss the implications of cosmology for supersymmetry and vice versa. Topics include: motivations for supersymmetry; supersymmetry breaking; dark energy; freeze out and WIMPs; neutralino dark matter; cosmologically preferred regions of minimal supergravity; direct and indirect detection of neutralinos; the DAMA and HEAT signals; inflation and reheating; gravitino dark matter; Big Bang nucleosynthesis; and the cosmic microwave background. I conclude with speculations about the prospects for a microscopic description of the dark universe, stressing the necessity of diverse experiments on both sides of the particle physics/cosmology interface.

Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis and WIMP Dark Matter Freeze-Out as Probes of Yukawa Cosmology
Using BBN and WIMP relic density, the authors constrain the Yukawa gravity coupling α to about -0.017 to 0.018, with the lithium discrepancy still unexplained.
