Cosmologically Viable Low-energy Supersymmetry Breaking

Abstract

A recent cosmological bound on the gravitino mass, m3/2<4.7m_{3/2}<4.7 eV, together with LHC results on the Higgs mass and direct searches, excludes minimal gauge mediation with high reheating temperatures. We discuss a minimal, vector-mediated model which incorporates the seesaw mechanism for neutrino masses, allows for thermal leptogenesis, ameliorates the μ\mu problem, and achieves the observed Higgs mass and a gravitino as light as 11-22 eV.
