Abstract

We study a singlet extension of the minimal U(1)RU(1)_R symmetric model, which shares nice properties of Dirac gauginos and RR-symmetric Higgs sector. At the same time, a superpotential coupling of RR-charged singlet to the Higgs doublets can give a substantial contribution to the Higgs boson mass. We show that the 125 GeV Higgs boson is consistent with perturbative unification, even if the SUSY scale is as low as 1 TeV and if the DD-term Higgs potential is suppressed as is often the case in Dirac gauginos. The model also contains a light scalar and fermion, pseudo-moduli and pseudo-Goldstino: The former gets a mass mainly from SUSY breaking soft terms, in addition to a small explicit RR-symmetry breaking for the latter. We examine how the Higgs mass and width are affected by these light degrees of freedom. Specifically we find thatdepending on parameters of RR-charged Higgses, the pseudo-moduli lighter than a half of the SM-Higgs boson mass is still allowed by the constraints from invisible decays of the ZZ and Higgs bosons. We also find that such a light scalar can reduce the Higgs boson mass, at most by a few percents.
