Abstract
It has been shown that very light or even massless neutralinos are consistent with all current experiments, given nonuniversal gaugino masses. Furthermore, a very light neutralino is consistent with astrophysical bounds from supernovae and cosmological bounds on dark matter. Here we study the cosmological constraints on this scenario from big bang nucleosynthesis (taking gravitinos into account) and find that a very light neutralino is even favored by current observations.
