Supergravity Miracles: Phenomenology with Gravitational Divergences

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The properties of singlet fields in supergravity background are discussed. Particularly, it is shown that the O(Λ2){\cal{O}}(\Lambda^{2}) contributions to their one-point function lead to novel derivations of effective scales such as the μ\mu parameter, a messenger scale, an intermediate symmetry-breaking scale, and the unification scale, in terms of the scale of spontaneous supersymmetry-breaking in a hidden sector.The singlet one-point function effectively serves as a messenger of supersymmetry breaking.
