High-scale supersymmetry, the Higgs boson mass, and gauge unification
@article{Ellis2017HighscaleST, title={High-scale supersymmetry, the Higgs boson mass, and gauge unification}, author={Sebastian A. R. Ellis and James D. Wells}, journal={Physical Review D}, year={2017}, volume={96}, pages={055024} }
Suppressing naturalness concerns, we discuss the compatibility requirements of high-scale supersymmetry breaking with the Higgs boson mass constraint and gauge coupling unification. We find that to accommodate superpartner masses significantly greater than the electroweak scale, one must introduce large non-degeneracy factors. These factors are enumerated, and implications for the allowed forms of supersymmetry breaking are discussed. We find that superpartner masses of arbitrarily high values…

We show that gauge coupling unification in supersymmetry (SUSY) models can make a nontrivial interconnection between collider and proton decay experiments. Under the assumption of precise gauge…
Inflation and high-scale supersymmetry with an EeV gravitino

Can measurements of 2HDM parameters provide hints for high scale supersymmetry
- Physics

Two-Higgs-doublet models (2HDMs) are minimal extensions of the Standard Model (SM) that may still be discovered at the LHC. The quartic couplings of their potentials can be determined from the…

Supersymmetry breaking close to the scale of grand unification can explain cosmic inflation. As we demonstrate in this paper, this can be achieved in strongly coupled supersymmetric gauge theories,…
