Effects of Flavor Violation on Split Supersymmetry

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v3

Abstract

We discuss consequences of flavor mixings in the scalar fermion sector of supersymmetric models endowed with ultra heavy scalars. We find that, under extreme fine-tunings different than but similar in size to that needed to obtain a light Higgs doublet, intergenerational mixings generically lead to light sfermion states which facilitate a number of phenomena ranging from rare processes to electric dipole moments. The number of scalar fermions to be discovered by collider searches is fewer than those in a complete supersymmetric model.
