Light Higgsinos in Pure Gravity Mediation (1412.3403v1)

Published 10 Dec 2014 in hep-ph

Abstract: Pure gravity mediation (PGM), with two free parameters, is a minimalistic approach to supergravity models, yet is capable of incorporating radiative electroweak symmetry breaking, a Higgs mass in agreement with the experimental measurement, without violating any phenomenological constraints. The model may also contain a viable dark matter candidate in the form of a wino. Here, we extend the minimal model by allowing the $\mu$-term to be a free parameter (equivalent to allowing the two Higgs soft masses, $m_1$ and $m_2$, to differ from other scalar masses) which are set by the gravitino mass. In particular, we examine the region of parameter space where $\mu \ll m_{3/2}$ in which case, the Higgsino becomes the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) and a dark matter candidate. We also consider a generalization of PGM which incorporates a Peccei-Quinn symmetry which determines the $\mu$-term dynamically. In this case, we show that the dark matter may either be in the form of an axion and/or a neutralino, and that the LSP may be either a wino, bino, or Higgsino.
