We consider right handed neutrino emission from charged and neutral pion condensate matter likely to be present in the supernova core associated with SN 1987 A. This is used to constrain the strength of right handed interaction and we get…
Light stops consistent with the Higgs boson mass of $\sim126\,{\rm GeV}$ are investigated within the framework of minimal supergravity. It is shown that models with light stops which are also consistent with the thermal relic density…
We explore the implications of a 124-126 GeV CP-even Higgs boson on the fundamental parameter space and sparticle spectroscopy of the minimal gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking (mGMSB) scenario. The above mass for the Higgs boson yields…
The Standard Model augmented by the presence of gauge-singlet right-handed neutrinos proves to be an ideal scenario for accommodating nonzero neutrino masses. Among the new parameters of this ``New Standard Model'' are right-handed neutrino…
The lightest supersymmetric particles could be higgsinos that have a small mixing with gauginos. If the lightest higgsino-like state makes up some or all of the dark matter with a thermal freezeout density, then its mass must be between…
We recently showed that a new gauge boson $\gamma_B$ coupling only to baryon number is phenomenologically allowed, even if $m_B<m_Z$ and $\alpha_B \approx 0.2$. In our previous work we assumed that kinetic mixing between the baryon number…
Arguments are given that the lightest supersymmetric particle should be a neutralino $\chi$. Minimizing the fine tuning of the gauge hierarchy favours $\Omega_{\chi} h^2 \sim 0.1$. There are important constraints on the parameter space of…
In a class of direct gauge mediation with a perturbatively stable SUSY breaking vacuum, gaugino masses vanish at the leading order of SUSY breaking F-term. We study the allowed parameter space of the gauge mediation models. By imposing a…
In this letter, we study collider phenomenology in the supersymmetric Standard Model with a certain type of non-universal gaugino masses at the gauge coupling unification scale, motivated by the little hierarchy problem. In this scenario,…
Motivated by recent data from CoGeNT and the DAMA annual modulation signal, we discuss collider constraints on MSSM neutralino dark matter with mass in the 5-15 GeV range. Such an LSP would be a Bino with a small Higgsino admixture.…
We consider 5D supersymmetric SU(3) x SU(2) x U(1) theories compactified at the TeV scale on S^1/Z_2 with supersymmetry broken by boundary conditions. Localizing the top quark at a boundary of a fifth dimension by a bulk mass term M_t,…
Considering $Z_4$ symmetry in Type I seesaw scenario, one could obtain mass-squared differences of light neutrinos, mixings and $CP$ violating phase within $3 \sigma$ confidence level based on neutrino oscillation data. This is possible…
We revisit the constraints on the properties of right handed neutrinos from the requirement to explain the observed light neutrino oscillation data in the type-I seesaw model. We use well-known relations to show that there is in general no…
Thermal two-loop QCD corrections associated with light stops have a dramatic effect on the strength of the MSSM electroweak phase transition, making it more strongly first order as required for the viability of electroweak baryogenesis. We…
We show that some models with $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry can be realized at the electroweak scale and that this is a consequence of an approximate global $SU(2)_{L+R}$ symmetry. This symmetry implies a condition…
After a general discussion about the quantitative meaning of the naturalness upper bounds on the masses of supersymmetric particles, we compute these bounds in models with gauge-mediated soft terms. We find interesting upper limits on the…
We examine arguments that could avoid light superpartners as an implication of supersymmetric radiative electroweak symmetry breaking. We argue that, from the point of view of string theory and standard approaches to generating the mu-term,…
Gauge mediation predicts 10 TeV or heavier squarks because such a heavy stop is required to explain the observed 125 GeV Higgs boson mass without a large trilinear soft mass term in the minimal supersymmetric standard model. Although such a…
We employ the low energy Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) to explore the parameter space associated with $Z$-pole and Higgs-pole solutions. Such parameter spaces can not only saturate the cold dark matter relic density bound…
\def\nle{{\stackrel{<}{\sim}}} We examine a possibility for existence of a light supersymmetric partner of the top quark (stop) with mass 15 $\sim$ 16 GeV in the framework of the minimal supergravity GUT model. Such light stop could explain…
