Soft Supersymmetry–breaking Terms from Supergravity and Superstring Models
نویسنده
چکیده
We review the origin of soft supersymmetry–breaking terms in N = 1 supergravity models of particle physics. We first consider general formulae for those terms in general models with a hidden sector breaking supersymmetry at an intermediate energy scale. The results for some simple models are given. We then consider the results obtained in some simple superstring models in which particular assumptions about the origin of supersymmetry breaking are made. These are models in which the seed of supersymmetry breaking is assumed to be originated in the dilaton/moduli sector of the theory.

Small Flavor Conserving CP Violation in Superstring Models
It is well known that supersymmetric models allow new sources for CP violation that arise from soft supersymmetry breaking terms. If unsuppressed, these new CP-violating phases would give too large a neutron electric dipole moment. We discuss a mechanism for suppressing SUSY phases in stringinspired supergravity models in which supersymmetry is assumed to be broken by the auxiliary components o...
متن کاملFiniteness of Soft Terms in Finite N=1 SUSY Gauge Theories
Recently proposed relations between the renormalization group functions of the soft supersymmetry breaking terms and those of a rigid theory allow one to consider a possibility of constructing a totally all loop finite N=1 SUSY gauge theory, including the soft SUSY breaking terms. The requirement of finiteness, which can be satisfied in previously constructed finite SUSY GUTs, imposes some cons...
متن کاملSoft Scalar-Mass Sum Rule in Gauge-Yukawa Unified Models and Its Superstring Interpretation
It is shown that a certain sum rule for soft supersymmetry–breaking scalar masses, which has been recently found in a certain class of superstring models, is universal for gauge-Yukawa unified models. To explain this coincidence, we argue that the low-energy remnant of the target-space duality invariance in the effective supergravity of compactified superstrings can be identified with the (brok...
متن کاملUnification of couplings and soft supersymmetry breaking terms in 4 D superstring models
We consider the predictions for the hierarchy of mass scales, the fine structure constant, the radii of compactification and the soft SUSY breaking terms which follow if SUSY breaking is triggered by a gaugino condensate.
متن کاملGeneral Soft Terms from Supergravity including D-terms
We derive general expressions for soft terms in supergravity where D-terms contribute significantly to the supersymmetry breaking. Such D-terms can produce large splitting between scalar and fermionic partners in the spectrum. By requiring that supersymmetry breaking sets the cosmological constant to zero, we the parameterize the soft terms when D-terms dominate over F-terms or are comparable t...
