Slow and Safe Gravitinos

Abstract

The phenomenology of gravitinos has been the object of many studies in Cosmology. 

After a brief overview of this subject, we will discuss a recent claim that gravitinos  with vanishing sound speed are overproduced in the early Universe. We shall show that  this overproduction does not occur in models with unconstrained superfields, but that  it takes place only for specific choices of the Kähler and the superpotential, and for specific superfield constraints. We comment on other potential problems associated with this class of models.
