Gaugino Mass without Singlets
read the original abstract
In models with dynamical supersymmetry breaking in the hidden sector, the gaugino masses in the observable sector have been believed to be extremely suppressed (below 1 keV), unless there is a gauge singlet in the hidden sector with specific couplings to the observable sector gauge multiplets. We point out that there is a pure supergravity contribution to gaugino masses at the quantum level arising from the superconformal anomaly. Our results are valid to all orders in perturbation theory and are related to the `exact' beta functions for soft terms. There is also an anomaly contribution to the A terms proportional to the beta function of the corresponding Yukawa coupling. The gaugino masses are proportional to the corresponding gauge beta functions, and so do not satisfy the usual GUT relations.

(Pseudo-)Dirac Gravitinos
Scherk-Schwarz breaking yields a Dirac gravitino whose mixing lacks a local N=1 superspace realization in minimal supergravity and whose matter couplings produce standard scalar thresholds plus UV-dependent Dirac ferm...

MSSM flavors from 7-brane configurations of magnetized SYM on $R^{1,3} \times (T^2)^3/(Z_2 \times Z'_2)$
Magnetized SYM on (T^2)^3/(Z_2 x Z'_2) with 7-branes, fluxes, and Wilson lines produces MSSM chiral fields and semi-realistic hierarchical Yukawas for quarks and leptons.

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