A simple and realistic model of supersymmetry breaking

We present a simple and realistic model of supersymmetry breaking. In addition to the minimal supersymmetric standard model, we only introduce a hidden sector gauge group SU(5)SU(5) and three fields X, F   and F¯. Supersymmetry is broken at a local minimum of the potential, and its effects are transmitted to the supersymmetric standard model sector through both standard model gauge loops and local operators suppressed by the cutoff scale, which is taken to be the unification scale. The form of the local operators is controlled by a U(1)U(1) symmetry. The generated supersymmetry breaking and μ parameters are comparable in size, and no flavor or CP   violating terms arise. The spectrum of the first two generation superparticles is that of minimal gauge mediation with the number of messengers Nmess=5Nmess=5 and the messenger scale 1011 GeV≲Mmess≲1013 GeV1011 GeV≲Mmess≲1013 GeV. The spectrum of the Higgs bosons and third generation superparticles, however, can deviate from it. The lightest supersymmetric particle is the gravitino with a mass of order (1–10) GeV(1–10) GeV.
