3 Motivations for (TeV-cale) upersymmetry Incorporation of gravity (But M UY could be very large) tabilization of electroweak scale But landscape ideas (anthropically-motivated fine tuning); variants (e.g., split supersymmetry) Alternatives: LED, DB, Little Higgs Gauge unification (many variations, compensations possible) Cold dark matter (LP) if R P MM) conserved (strongly constrained in Z-pole: any new physics decouples

4 Minimal upergravity MM (minimal supersymmetric extension of standard model): M gauge group/spectrum plus second Higgs doublet, sparticles, < 5 new parameters Minimal supergravity: UGRA mediation + five (real) parameters (at M P ) m, M /2, A, B, }{{}}{{} µ universal soft breaking Why small? m, M /2, A, tan β, M Z, sign(µ) pecific models (e.g., dilaton) further relations RGE to electroweak scale Usually assume R P conservation LP candidate χ for CDM

9 Alternatives Minimal UGRA unlikely to be full story, but many alternatives Universal gaugino and universal scalar within each sector (Q, U, D, L, E, N) Non-universal gaugino masses (e.g., anomaly mediation (slepton problem)) Phases Expanded parameter space, e.g., non-bino LP

10 Gauge mediation FCNC better, but µ? LP Goldstino g 3/2 NLP may decay promptly, in detector, or outside detector (Goldstino CDM prefers fast decays) NLP decay: χ γg 3/2 or l R lg 3/2 R P violation L violating: W LH u, LLĒ, LQ D B violating: W ŪŪ D No missing energy signature Multi jets or leptons No CDM candidate (axion?)

11 Beyond the MM Even if supersymmetry holds, MM may not be the full story Most of the problems of standard model remain (hierarchy of electroweak and Planck scales is stabilized but not explained) µ problem introduced Could be that all new physics is at GUT/Planck scale, but there could be remnants surviving to TeV scale pecific string constructions often have extended gauge groups, exotics, extended Higgs sectors Important to explore alternatives/extensions to MM

Here, the MM contains a light Bino and Wino and heavy Higgsinos. The NMM has a similar spectrum, but contains an additional heavy neutralino while the n/smm has a very light extra neutralino. The UMM has two additional neutralinos that can intermix; their masses are strongly dependent on the singlet Higgs charge under the U() symmetry and the corresponding gaugino mass value.

The s-channel Higgs couples to the usual M final states.
