These can impact significanlty the discovery possibilities of the lightest Higgs at the LHC. We show that due to these decays, there exist regions of the $M_2-μ$ space where the B.R. $(h \to γγ)$ becomes dangerously low even after imposing the LEP constraints on the sparticle masses, implying a possible preclusion of its discovery in the $γγ$ channel. We find that there exist regions in the parameter space with acceptable relic density and where the ratio ${B.R. (h \to γγ)_{SUSY} \over B.R. (h \to γγ)_{SM}}$ falls below 0.6, implying loss of signal in the $γγ$ channel. These regions correspond to $\tilde χ_1^+, \tilde χ_2^0$ masses which should be accessible already at the Tevatron. Further we find that considerations of relic density put lower limit on the U(1) gaugino mass parameter $M_1$ independently of $μ, \tan β$ and $m_0$.17 pages, 11 figures, Talk presented at Appi2002, Accelerator and Particle Physics Institute, Appi, Iwate, Japan, February 13--16 2002High Energy Physics - PhenomenologyInvisible Decays of the Supersymmetric Higgs and Dark Mattertext
