We present a code that calculates the relic density of the LSP in the MSSM. All tree-level processes for the annihilation of the LSP are included as well as all possible coannihilation processes with neutralinos, charginos, sleptons,squarks and gluinos. In all we have included over 2800 processes not counting charged conjugate states.The cross-sections extracted from CompHEP are calculated exactly. Relativistic formulae for the thermal average are used and care is taken to handle poles and thresholds by adopting specific integration routines. The input parameters can be either the soft SUSY parameters in a general MSSM or the five parameters of a SUGRA model. A link with ISASUGRA/ISAJET allows to calculate the parameters of the MSSM at the weak scale for an input at the GUT scale. The Higgs masses are calculated with FeynHiggsFast. Routines calculating g-2 and bsgamma are also included.

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A three-loop inverse scotogenic seesaw with residual Z2⊗Z3 yields viable multi-component dark matter and approximate resonant leptogenesis while fitting neutrino and CLFV bounds.

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Near the stop-top kinematic threshold, next-to-leading-order corrections cancel the leading Higgsino-nucleon scattering amplitude, pushing the spin-independent cross section below the neutrino floor in parts of the MS...

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    NLO QCD and electroweak corrections to the CxSM dark-matter relic density are computed and released in the public code RelExt@NLO; the corrections shift the allowed parameter region in both directions.

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A two-component dark matter model combining an inert scalar triplet with a pseudo-Goldstone singlet revives the sub-TeV triplet desert region and predicts gravitational waves detectable by LISA, BBO, and DECIGO.

    hep-ph 2024-12 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the minimal freeze-in dark photon model, low-temperature reheating pushes the required portal coupling to larger values, and the exact curve depends on the equation of state during reheating, widening the reach of ...

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    The micrOMEGAs dark-matter package now solves Boltzmann equations with user-defined expansion and entropy histories, adds sub-GeV hadronic annihilation, and updates CMB, dwarf-galaxy, LZ, and CMS constraints.

    hep-ph 2024-12 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    Using LZ2024 limits, the paper derives new lower bounds on gaugino masses and upper bounds on higgsino mass splittings in decoupled-MSSM higgsino dark matter scenarios, plus projections for the neutrino fog.

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Minimal SUSY SO(10) with a universal soft spectrum survives only in a narrow mini-split region m0 ≳ 7.7 TeV and tanβ ≲ 9 under simultaneous proton-decay, Higgs-mass, and unification constraints.

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Neutralino dark matter is viable in four scenarios within a 5D gauge mediation model with an O(100) TeV gravitino, and the allowed parameter regions are mapped against current experiments.

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Current data restrict the g~-SUGRA scenario to tanβ ≳ 5 and M0 ≳ 20 tanβ GeV, with large muon g-2 contributions difficult and future colliders needed to cover the remaining parameter space.

    Low-temperature reheating shifts the relic-density contours of Z'-mediated dark matter so that WIMP and FIMP solutions merge and new regions become testable.
