Abstract
It is shown that in the physically interesting domain of the parameter space of SU(5) supergravity grand unified theory. the Higgs-boson and Z poles dominate the annihilation of the lightest supersymmetric part icle. Here the naive analyses on thermal averaging breaks down and for mulas are derived which give a rigorous treatment over the poles. Thes e results are then used to show that there exist significant domains i n the parameter space where the constraints of proton stability and co smology are simultaneously satisfied. New upper limits on light partic le masses are obtained.
