Soft Yukawa couplings in supersymmetric theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The possibility of radiatively generated fermion masses arising from chiral flavor violation in soft supersymmetry-breaking terms is explored. Vacuum stability constraints are considered in various classes of models, and allow in principle all of the ...

Minimal R+R2 supergravity models of inflation coupled to matter

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2014
The supersymmetric extension of “Starobinsky” R+αR2 models of inflation is particularly simple in the “new minimal” formalism of supergravity, where the inflaton has no scalar superpartners.

Grand Unification in Higher Dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We have recently proposed an alternative picture for the physics at the scale of gauge coupling unification, where the unified symmetry is realized in higher dimensions but is broken locally by a symmetry breaking defect.

Komar charge of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 supergravity and its superspace generalization

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We find the defining equations for a Killing vector and its superpartner (called the generalized Killing spinor) and use them to construct the generalized Komar superform of minimal N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 d = 4 supergravity using the superspace ...

τ̃ searches at future e+e− colliders [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
The direct pair-production of the superpartner of the τ-lepton, the τ̃, is one of the most interesting channels to search for SUSY in: the τ̃ is likely to be the lightest of the scalar leptons, and is one of the most experimentally chalanging ones.

N=4 Super Yang-Mills Low-Energy Effective Action at Three and Four Loops

open access: yes, 2000
We investigate the low-energy effective action in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory with gauge group SU(n) spontaneously broken down to its maximal torus. Using harmonic superspace technique we prove an absence of any three- and four-loop corrections to non ...

Heavy superpartners with less tuning from hidden sector renormalisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, superpartner masses consistent with collider bounds typically introduce significant tuning of the electroweak scale.

Inflation from supersymmetry breaking

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017
We explore the possibility that inflation is driven by supersymmetry breaking with the superpartner of the goldstino (sgoldstino) playing the role of the inflaton.

Comments on nonlinear sigma models coupled to supergravity

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2017
N=1, D=4 nonlinear sigma models, parametrized by chiral superfields, usually describe Kählerian geometries, provided that Einstein frame supergravity is used.

Supersymmetry and the positron excess in cosmic rays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Recently the HEAT balloon experiment has confirmed an excess of high-energy positrons in cosmic rays. They could come from annihilation of dark matter in the galactic halo.
