Query: Theoretical Uncertainties in the Calculation of Supersymmetric Dark
  Matter Observables   We estimate the current theoretical uncertainty in supersymmetric dark matter
predictions by comparing several state-of-the-art calculations within the
minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). We consider standard neutralino
dark matter scenarios -- coannihilation, well-tempering, pseudoscalar resonance
-- and benchmark models both in the pMSSM framework and in frameworks with
Grand Unified Theory (GUT)-scale unification of supersymmetric mass parameters.
The pipelines we consider are constructed from the publicly available software
packages SOFTSUSY, SPheno, FeynHiggs, SusyHD, micrOMEGAs, and DarkSUSY. We find
that the theoretical uncertainty in the relic density as calculated by
different pipelines, in general, far exceeds the statistical errors reported by
the Planck collaboration. In GUT models, in particular, the relative
discrepancies in the results reported by different pipelines can be as much as
a few orders of magnitude. We find that these discrepancies are especially
pronounced for for cases where the dark matter physics relies critically on
calculations related to electroweak symmetry breaking, which we investigate in
detail, and for coannihilation models, where there is heightened sensitivity to
the sparticle spectrum. The dark matter annihilation cross section today and
the scattering cross section with nuclei also suffer appreciable theoretical
uncertainties, which, as experiments reach the relevant sensitivities, could
lead to uncertainty in conclusions regarding the viability or exclusion of
particular models.
