Abstract

Applying No-Scale Supergravity boundary conditions at a heavy unification scale to the Flipped SU(5)SU(5) grand unified theory with extra TeV-scale vector-like multiplets, i.e.i.e. No-Scale F{\cal F}-SU(5)SU(5), we express the ZZ-boson mass MZM_Z as an explicit function of the boundary gaugino mass M1/2M_{1/2}, MZ2=MZ2(M1/22)M_Z^2 = M_Z^2 (M_{1/2}^2), with implicit dependence upon a dimensionless ratio cc of the supersymmetric Higgs mixing parameter μ\mu and M1/2M_{1/2}. Setting the top Yukawa coupling consistent with mt=174.3m_t = 174.3 GeV at MZ=91.2M_Z = 91.2 GeV, the value of cc naturally tends toward c1c \simeq 1, which indirectly suggests underlying action of the Giudice-Masiero mechanism. Proportional dependence of all model scales upon the unified gaugino mass M1/2M_{1/2} in the No-Scale F{\cal F}-SU(5)SU(5) model suggests one possible mechanism of confronting the electroweak fine tuning problem.
