Abstract
The CDMS Collaboration has reported two candidate events for dark matter. If the events are due to the elastic scattering of dark matter, the dark matter would be a WIMP dark matter with its mass of the order of 10-100GeV and its scattering cross section with a nucleon is about 10−44-10−43 cm2. We show that such a dark matter is properly realized as a neutralino dark matter in the light higgs boson scenario of the MSSM. The lightest higgs boson mass can be lighter than 114.4GeV in the scenario because of a suppressed interaction between higgs boson and Z bosons. As a result, a large scattering cross section between the dark matter and ordinary matter is obtained.
