Naturalness versus stringy naturalness (with implications for collider and dark matter searches
@article{Baer2019NaturalnessVS, title={Naturalness versus stringy naturalness (with implications for collider and dark matter searches}, author={H. Baer and V. Barger and Shadman Salam}, journal={arXiv: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology}, year={2019} }
The notion of stringy naturalness-- that an observable O_2 is more natural than O_1 if more (phenomenologically acceptable) vacua solutions lead to
O_2 rather than O_1-- is examined within the context of the Standard Model (SM) and various SUSY extensions: CMSSM/mSUGRA, high-scale SUSY and radiatively-driven natural SUSY (RNS). Rather general arguments from string theory suggest a (possibly mild) statistical draw towards vacua with large soft SUSY breaking terms. These vacua must be tempered… CONTINUE READING
