    We consider the role of extremely long lived charged massive particles in the early Universe and discuss what we can learn if we discover such long lived charged massive particle particles at future collider experiment.

    Kination-dominated quintessence scenarios can provide an intriguing connection between thermal WIMP dark matter and dark energy which can be tested at forthcoming and future colliders. We present the results of our investigation of the implications of such nonstandard cosmological models for neutralino dark matter in the MSSM, focusing on the role of the ILC in determining the...

    We investigate the role of quantum corrections within the quintessence dark energy scenario in the framework of low-energy effective field theory. In this framework, the quintessence field, which can drive an accelerated cosmic expansion, is viewed as arising from a high-energy theory, which is governed by a UV-scale of the order of the GUT or Planck scales. We study the low-energy...

    A new class of constraint system applicable to continuous covariant field theories is explained. When coupled to gravity, it modifies the constraints of Einstein equations. Cosmological implications are also presented.

    We analyze the effect of variation of fundamental couplings and mass scales on primordial nucleosynthesis in a systematic way. The first step establishes the response of primordial element abundances to the variation of a large number of nuclear physics parameters, including nuclear binding energies. We find a strong influence of the $n-p$ mass difference (for the \hefo\ abundance), of the...

    MSSM and SUSY GUTs are the candidates of theoretical models beyond SM. However the naive extensions of SM allow many arbitrary parameters and many unobserved elementary (SUSY) particles, which lose simplicity of Nature and the predictive powers. In this talk, firstly we review quickly the NLSUSYGR which describes the NLSUSY invariant coupling of (Nambu-Godldstone...
