China ∗ Department of Physics, Federal Urdu University of Arts, Science and Technology, Karachi 75300, Pakistan Institute of Modern Physics, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China Abstract The null results of the LHC searches have put strong bounds on new physics scenario such as supersymmetry (SUSY). With the latest values of top quark mass and strong coupling, we study the upper bounds on the sfermion masses in Split-SUSY from the observed Higgs boson mass and electroweak (EW) vacuum stability. To be consistent with the observed Higgs mass, we find that the largest value of supersymmetry breaking 3 1:5 scales MS for tan β = 2 and tan β = 4 are O(10 TeV) and O(10 TeV) respectively, thus putting an upper bound on the sfermion masses around 103 TeV. In addition, the Higgs quartic coupling becomes negative at much lower scale than the Standard Model (SM), and we extract the upper bound of O(104 TeV) on the sfermion masses from EW vacuum stability. Therefore, we obtain the PeV-Scale Split-SUSY. The key point is the extra contributions to the Renormalization Group Equation (RGE) running from arXiv:1901.05278v1 [hep-ph] 16 Jan 2019 the couplings among Higgs boson, Higgsinos, and gauginos.

  • Gravity Waves and Proton Decay in a Flipped SU(5) Hybrid Inflation Model
    PHYSICAL REVIEW D 97, 123522 (2018) Gravity waves and proton decay in a flipped SU(5) hybrid inflation model † ‡ Mansoor Ur Rehman,1,* Qaisar Shafi,2, and Umer Zubair2, 1Department of Physics, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad 45320, Pakistan 2Bartol Research Institute, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Delaware, Newark, Delaware 19716, USA (Received 10 April 2018; published 14 June 2018) We revisit supersymmetric hybrid inflation in the context of the flipped SUð5Þ model. With minimal superpotential and minimal Kähler potential, and soft supersymmetry (SUSY) masses of order (1–100) TeV, compatibility with the Planck data yields a symmetry breaking scale M of flipped SUð5Þ close to ð2–4Þ × 1015 GeV. This disagrees with the lower limit M ≳ 7 × 1015 GeV set from proton decay searches by the Super-Kamiokande collaboration. We show how M close to the unification scale 2 × 1016 GeV can be reconciled with SUSY hybrid inflation by employing a nonminimal Kähler potential. Proton decays into eþπ0 with an estimated lifetime of order 1036 years. The tensor to scalar ratio r in this case can approach observable values ∼10−4–10−3. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevD.97.123522 I.

If we consider the standard model as an effective field theory, the requisite neutrino mass terms can in general be introduced without extension of the standard model field content. From the low-energy point of view, neutrino mass terms appear through a non-renormalizable dimension-five operator constructed from standard model fields, i j ν = λijL L HH +h.c.

But given the exquisite successes of the Model, the simplest possibility has always been the appearance of a single Higgs particle, with a mass not much above the LEP exclusions. In Quantum Field Theory, simple has a precise meaning: a single Higgs doublet is the minimal set of additional (previously unobserved) degrees of freedom which can account for the elementary particle masses. Michael Dine SUSY, Landscape and the Higgs Higgs Discovery; LHC Exclusions So far, simplicity appears to be winning.

  • Exploring Supersymmetry and Naturalness in Light of New Experimental Data
    Exploring supersymmetry and naturalness in light of new experimental data by Kevin Earl A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Physics Department of Physics Carleton University Ottawa-Carleton Institute for Physics Ottawa, Canada August 27, 2019 Copyright ⃝c 2019 Kevin Earl Abstract This thesis investigates extensions of the Standard Model (SM) that are based on either supersymmetry or the Twin Higgs model. New experimental data, primar- ily collected at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), play an important role in these investigations. Specifically, we examine the following five cases. We first consider Mini-Split models of supersymmetry. These types ofmod- els can be generated by both anomaly and gauge mediation and we examine both cases. LHC searches are used to constrain the relevant parameter spaces, and future prospects at LHC 14 and a 100 TeV proton proton collider are investigated. Next, we study a scenario where Higgsino neutralinos and charginos are pair produced at the LHC and promptly decay due to the baryonic R-parity violating superpotential operator λ00U cDcDc. More precisely, we examine this phenomenology 00 in the case of a single non-zero λ3jk coupling. By recasting an experimental search, we derive novel constraints on this scenario. We then introduce an R-symmetric model of supersymmetry where the R- symmetry can be identified with baryon number. This allows the operator λ00U cDcDc in the superpotential without breaking baryon number. However, the R-symmetry will be broken by at least anomaly mediation and this reintroduces baryon number violation.

  • Gravity Modifications from Extra Dimensions
    12th Conference on Recent Developments in Gravity (NEB XII) IOP Publishing Journal of Physics: Conference Series 68 (2007) 012013 doi:10.1088/1742-6596/68/1/012013 Gravity modifications from extra dimensions I. Antoniadis1 Department of Physics, CERN - Theory Division 1211 Geneva 23, Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Lowering the string scale in the TeV region provides a theoretical framework for solving the mass hierarchy problem and unifying all interactions. The apparent weakness of gravity can then be accounted by the existence of large internal dimensions, in the submillimeter region, and transverse to a braneworld where our universe must be confined. I review the main properties of this scenario and its implications for observations at both particle colliders, and in non-accelerator gravity experiments. Such effects are for instance the production of Kaluza-Klein resonances, graviton emission in the bulk of extra dimensions, and a radical change of gravitational forces in the submillimeter range. I also discuss the warped case and localization of gravity in the presence of infinite size extra dimensions. 1. Introduction During the last few decades, physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) was guided from the problem of mass hierarchy. This can be formulated as the question of why gravity appears to us so weak compared to the other three known fundamental interactions corresponding to the electromagnetic, weak and strong nuclear forces. Indeed, gravitational interactions are 19 suppressed by a very high energy scale, the Planck mass MP 10 GeV, associated to a −35 ∼ length lP 10 m, where they are expected to become important.

  • Searches for Supersymmetry at the Tevatron
    SEARCHES FOR SUPERSYMMETRY AT THE TEVATRON ELSE LYTKEN (for the CDF and DØ collaborations) Department of Physics, Purdue University 525 Northwestern Avenue, West Lafayette, Indiana, USA The results for searches for Supersymmetry at the Tevatron Collider are summarized in this paper. We focus here on searches for chargino/neutralino and the lightest stop, as well as scenarios with R-parity violation and split supersymmetry. No significant excesses with respect to the Standard Model were observed and constraints are set on the SUSY parameter space. 1 Introduction arXiv:hep-ex/0605061v1 15 May 2006 Supersymmetry (SUSY), an attractive extension of the Standard Model (SM), is based on a new symmetry between fermions and bosons. Each Standard Model particle acquires a supersymmet- ric partner with ∆spin = 1/2. Most of the SUSY models considered assume the conservation of a quantum number, R-paritya, resulting in a stable lightest supersymmetric particle, the LSP. This stable, weakly interacting particle would escape detection and give rise to missing transverse energy, ET . In minimal supergravity models the lightest supersymmetric particle 6 0 is usually the lightest neutralino,χ ˜1. The non-excluded masses for the proposed superpartners are typically of the order of 100 GeV/c2 and above, thus potentially accessible at the Tevatron. The two Tevatron experiments, DØ and CDF have successfully been taking data at √s =1.96 TeV. Results shown are based on 300 - 800 pb−1 of data. 2 Squarks and gluinos 2.1 Searching for stop Due to their strong couplings, squarks and gluinos are expected to be produced abundantly at hadron colliders.

  • Split Supersymmetry at Colliders
    2005 International Linear Collider Workshop - Stanford, U.S.A. Split Supersymmetry at Colliders W. Kilian Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY, D–22603 Hamburg, Germany T. Plehn1 MPI f¨ur Physik, Fohringer¨ Ring 6, D–80805 M¨unchen, Germany P. Richardson Institute for Particle Physics Phenomenology, University of Durham, DH1 3LE, UK E. Schmidt Fachbereich Physik, University of Rostock, D-18051 Rostock, Germany We consider the collider phenomenology of split-supersymmetry models. Despite the challenging nature of the signals in these models the long-lived gluino can be discovered with masses above 2 TeV at the LHC. At a future linear collider we will be able to observe the renormalization group effects from split supersymmetry on the chargino/neutralino mixing parameters, using measurements of the neutralino and chargino masses and cross sections. This indirect determination of chargino/neutralino anomalous Yukawa couplings is an important check for supersymmetric models in general. 1. INTRODUCTION Split supersymmetry [1] is a possibility to evade many of the phenomenological constraints that plague generic supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model. By splitting the supersymmetry-breaking scale between the scalar and the gaugino sector, the squarks and sleptons are rendered heavy (somewhere between several TeV and the GUT scale), while charginos and neutralinos may still be at the TeV scale or below. This setup eliminates dangerous flavor-changing neutral current transitions, electric dipole moments, and spurious proton-decay operators without the need for mass degeneracy between the sfermion generations. The benefits of the supersymmetry paradigm, in particular the unification of gauge groups at a high scale and the successful dark-matter prediction, are retained.
