%0 Journal Article %T Implications of a possible 115 GeV supersymmetric Higgs boson on detection and cosmological abundance of relic neutralinos %A A. Bottino %A N. Fornengo %A S. Scopel %J Physics %D 2000 %I arXiv %R 10.1016/S0550-3213(01)00273-5 %X We show that a supersymmetric neutral Higgs boson with a mass of about 115 GeV and with the other prerequisites required by the LEP Higgs events would be compatible with the detection of relic neutralinos in current set-ups for WIMP direct search. Thus this putative Higgs would fit remarkably well in an interpretation in terms of relic neutralinos of the annual-modulation effect recently measured in a WIMP direct experiment. We also show that the cosmological abundance of the relevant neutralinos reaches values of cosmological interest. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/0012377v2
