abstract

We show that in a general hidden sector model, supersymmetry breaking necessarily generates at one-loop a scalar and gaugino mass as a consequence of the super-Weyl anomaly. We study a scenario in which this contribution dominates. We consider the Standard Model particles to be localized on a (3+1)-dimensional subspace or ``3-brane'' of a higher dimensional spacetime, while supersymmetry breaking occurs off the 3-brane, either in the bulk or on another 3-brane. At least one extra dimension is assumed to be compactified roughly one to two orders of magnitude below the four-dimensional Planck scale. This framework is phenomenologically very attractive; it introduces new possibilities for solving the supersymmetric flavor problem, the gaugino mass problem, the supersymmetric CP problem, and the mu-problem. Furthermore, the compactification scale can be consistent with a unification of gauge and gravitational couplings. We demonstrate these claims in a four-dimensional effective theory below the compactification scale that incorporates the relevant features of the underlying higher dimensional theory and the contribution of the super-Weyl anomaly. Naturalness constraints follow not only from symmetries but also from the higher dimensional origins of the theory. We also introduce additional bulk contributions to the MSSM soft masses. This scenario is very predictive: the gaugino masses, squark masses, and $A$ terms are given in terms of MSSM renormalization group functions.

  1. AMSB in Truly Confining Gauge Theories

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Adding small AMSB to t-confining SUSY gauge theories moves the ground state to a superpotential branch and predicts discrete and flavor symmetry breaking such as Z6 to Z2 and Z16 x SU(2) to SO(2).

    hep-ex 2026-03 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    No excess found in 137 fb^-1 of 13 TeV pp data; new 95% CL exclusions reach chargino masses up to 880 GeV and tau-sleptons up to 320 GeV at ~1 ns lifetimes.

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 5.5 of 10

    Fourier-space gamma-ray–cosmic-shear cross-correlations give model-independent null results that exclude thermal WIMP annihilation for 7–40 GeV masses under high substructure boost and wino-like 2–3 TeV scenarios unde...

  5. A geometric origin for the radiative neutrino portal to secluded dark matter

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A brane-separated fifth dimension gives a geometric origin for the vanishing tree-level Higgs-hidden-scalar portal, leaving seesaw neutrinos to generate a small radiative portal that makes secluded dark matter viable ...

  6. Ultralight Dilatonic Dark Matter

    hep-ph 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Supersymmetry can stabilize an ultralight dilaton dark matter candidate, but gravity restricts its Standard Model couplings to undetectable levels, making consistent model building involved.

  7. Implications of Higgs mass for hidden sector SUSY breaking

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The 125 GeV Higgs mass, under naturalness and landscape priors, favors gravity mediation through hidden sector singlets with large A-terms over charged hidden sector models with loop-suppressed A-terms.

  8. Bridging the divide: axion searches and axino phenomenology at colliders

    hep-ph 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    In supersymmetric DFSZ axion models, the LHC with 140 fb^{-1} can probe axion decay constants below 10^{11} GeV for higgsino masses under 1 TeV via displaced neutralino decays to axino LSPs.
