| Abstract: | In this talk, I will present a simple extension of the standard model that gives rise to baryogenesis a has a dark matter candidate of O(GeV) mass. I will discuss the prospects for direct and indirect detection of dark matter in this model and its possible collider signals. The supersymmetric extension of this model is straightforward and leads to a multi-component dark matter scenario. This improves the direct detection prospects of the model. It may also produce a sizable amount of dark radiation, which seems to be indicated by recent cosmological data on the effective number of neutrinos. | |
