Abstract
Recent cosmological data favour additional relativistic degrees of freedom beyond the three active neutrinos and photons, often referred to as “dark radiation”. Extensions of the SM involving TeV-scale Zâ² gauge bosons generically contain superweakly interacting light right-handed neutrinos which can constitute this dark radiation. In this Letter we confront the requirement on the parameters of the E6Zâ² models to account for the present evidence of dark radiation with the already existing constraints from searches for new neutral gauge bosons at LHC7.
