Proton decay, supersymmetry breaking and its mediation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the breaking of supersymmetry and its transmission to the light states in the context of the minimal SU(5) grand unified theory, with no additional singlets. This simple theory can be taken as a prototype for a program of breaking simultaneously grand unified symmetry and supersymmetry. The main predictions are: (i) d=6 proton decay is completely negligible and d=5 is in accord with experiment, (ii) supersymmetry breaking is mainly mediated by gravity.

We discuss the problem of universality of the soft, supersymmetry-breaking terms in the minimal supersymmetric SU(5) model (MSSU(5)) completed with flavor-dependent nonrenormalizable operators (NROs), or nrMSSU(5). These are exploited to correct the wrong fermion spectrum and to slow down the too-fast decay rate of the proton that the MSSU(5) model predicts. In general, the presence of such ope...
متن کاملAxionic Mirage Mediation
Although the mirage mediation is one of the most plausible mediation mechanisms of supersymmetry breaking, it suffers from two crucial problems. One is the μ-/Bμ-problem and the second is the cosmological one. The former stems from the fact that the B parameter tends to be comparable with the gravitino mass, which is two order of magnitude larger than the other soft masses. The latter problem i...
متن کاملNew contribution to dimension five operators on proton decay in anomaly mediation scenario
In supergravity, effective superpotential relevant to dimension five operators on proton decay processes also leads to supersymmetry breaking terms among sfermions, dimension four operators. These dimension four operators induce the dimension five operators through 1-loop diagrams dressed by gauginos. We find that, in a class of models with the anomaly mediation, the 1-loop contributions can be...
متن کاملR - invariant New Inflation Model vs Supersymmetric Standard Model
We revisit the implications of the R-invariant New Inflation model to the supersymmetric standard model in light of recent discussion of gravitino production processes by the decay of the inflaton or the supersymmetry breaking field. We show that the models with supergravity mediation do not go well with the R-invariant New Inflation model, where the gravitino abundance produced by the decay of...

We construct a minimal supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified model in 5 dimensions. The extra dimension is compactified on an S/(Z2 × Z ′ 2) orbifold which has two inequivalent fixed points. These are flat 4-dimensional Minkowski spaces: the visible and the hidden branes. By orbifolding, the gauge symmetry on the hidden brane is reduced down to the Pati–Salam gauge symmetry SU(4)×SU(2)L×SU(2)R. O...
