Naturally heavy superpartners and a Little Higgs
نویسنده
چکیده
We construct an extension of the MSSM in which scalar superpartners can naturally be as heavy as 1 TeV. In the MSSM, the most significant fine tuning stems from the logarithmically enhanced top-stop loop contribution to the soft Higgs mass. We combine supersymmetry with the “simplest little Higgs” to render this loop finite, thereby removing the large logarithm even in models in which superpartner masses are generated at high scales such as in supergravity. Our model predicts an extended Higgs sector, superpartner masses near a TeV and little Higgs partners at a few TeV. [email protected] † [email protected]

Higgs boson from the meta-stable SUSY breaking sector
We construct a calculable model of electroweak symmetry breaking in which the Higgs doublet emerges from the meta-stable SUSY breaking sector as a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson. The Higgs boson mass is further protected by the little Higgs mechanism, and naturally suppressed by a two-loop factor from the SUSY breaking scale of 10 TeV. Gaugino and sfermion masses arise from standard gauge mediati...
متن کاملTwin SUSY
We construct an extension of the MSSM in which superpartners can naturally be heavier than the electroweak scale. This “little hierarchy” of scales is stable because the Higgs arises as a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson in the breaking of an accidental SU(4) symmetry of the Higgs sector. Supersymmetry and the global symmetry combine to forbid logarithmically divergent one-loop contributions to the...
متن کاملImproved determination of the Higgs mass in the MSSM with heavy superpartners
We present several advances in the effective field theory calculation of the Higgs mass in MSSM scenarios with heavy superparticles. In particular, we compute the dominant two-loop threshold corrections to the quartic Higgs coupling for generic values of the relevant SUSY-breaking parameters, including all contributions controlled by the strong gauge coupling and by the third-family Yukawa coup...
متن کاملHiggs Quark Couplings in Susy with Cp and Flavor Violations
In minimal supersymmetric model (SUSY) with a light Higgs sector, explicit CP violation and most general flavor mixings in the sfermion sector, integration of the superpartners out of the spectrum induces potentially large contributions to the Yukawa couplings of light quarks via those of the heavier ones. These corrections can be sizeable even for moderate values of tan β, and remain nonvanish...
متن کاملLittle Higgs Models: A Group Theoretic Primer
One of the outstanding problems in particle physics is the solution to the Standard Model hierarchy problem. In essence, this problem seeks to understand why the scale of electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB), dominantly the Higgs mass, does not appear at the grand unification scale, or the Planck scale of quantum gravity which lay 16-18 orders of magnitude higher. The standard model scalar Higg...
