Dear All members,
We are pleased to announce a Journal club by Seokhoon Yun.
* Title: The interpretation for Galactic Center
Excess and Electroweak 
Phase Transition in the NMSSM
* Speaker: Seokhoon Yun (IBS-CTPU)
* Date: 12:00-1:00 PM, 26 June 2015
* Abstract: The gamma-ray excess observed by the
Fermi-LAT in the Galactic 
Center can be interpreted by the dark matter annihilation to bb¯ via a 
light pseudoscalar in the NMSSM. It is interesting to note that the 
corresponding singlet scalar is useful to achieve a strongly first order 
phase transition required by the electroweak baryogenesis. In this paper, 
we investigate the possibility that the NMSSM model can simultaneously 
accommodate these two issues. The phase transition strength can be 
characterized by the vacua energy gap at zero temperature and be 
sufficiently enhanced by the tree-level effect in the NMSSM. We find that 
the annihilation of Singlino/Higgsino DM particles occurring close to the 
light pseudoscalar resonance is favored by the galactic center excess and 
the observed DM relic density, and a resulting small κ/λ and a negative Aκ 
can also lead to a successful strongly first order electroweak phase 
transition.
