Implications of XENON 100 and LHC results for Dark Matter models

We perform a fit to the recent XENON 100 data and study its implications for Dark Matter scenarios. We find that Inelastic Dark Matter is disfavored as an explanation to the DAMA/LIBRA annual modulation signal. Concerning the scalar singlet DM model, we fi ...

Lopsided gauge mediation

Riccardo Rattazzi, Duccio Pappadopulo, Roberto Franceschini, Andrea De Simone

It has been recently pointed out that the unavoidable tuning among supersymmetric parameters required to raise the Higgs boson mass beyond its experimental limit opens up new avenues for dealing with the so called mu-B-mu problem of gauge mediation. In fac ...

Magnetic fields at first order phase transition: a threat to electroweak baryogenesis

Andrea De Simone

The generation of the observed baryon asymmetry may have taken place during the electroweak phase transition, thus involving physics testable at LHC, a scenario dubbed electroweak baryogenesis. In this paper we point out that the magnetic field which is pr ...

A non standard supersymmetric spectrum

Enrico Bertuzzo, Duccio Pappadopulo, Paolo Lodone

Taking a bottom-up point of view and focussing on the lack of signals so far in the Higgs and in the flavour sectors, we argue in favour of giving consideration to supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model where the lightest Higgs boson has a mass be ...

Gaugino mass in AdS space

Riccardo Rattazzi, Claudio Scrucca

We study supersymmetric QED in AdS(4) with massless matter. At 1-loop the ultra-violet regulator of the theory generates a contribution to the gaugino mass that is naively inconsistent with unbroken supersymmetry. We show that this effect, known in flat sp ...

Globally and locally supersymmetric effective theories for light fields

Claudio Scrucca, Leonardo Brizi

We reconsider the general question of how to characterize most efficiently the low-energy effective theory obtained by integrating out heavy modes in globally and locally supersymmetric theories. We consider theories with chiral and vector multiplets and i ...

Limits on a Muon Flux from Neutralino Annihilations in the Sun with the IceCube 22-String Detector

Shirit Cohen, Mathieu Ribordy, Levent Demirörs, Xiaoxia Bai

A search for muon neutrinos from neutralino annihilations in the Sun has been performed with the IceCube 22-string neutrino detector using data collected in 104.3 days of live time in 2007. No excess over the expected atmospheric background has been observ ...

Natural mu and B mu in gauge mediation

Riccardo Rattazzi

We propose a natural solution to the mu problem in gauge mediation. It relies on the logarithmic dependence of the effective Kahler potential on the messenger threshold superfield X. Thus, mu and B mu naturally arise at one and two loops, respectively. Mor ...

Transverse observables and mass determination at hadron colliders

I consider the two-body decay of a particle at a hadron collider into a visible and an invisible particle, generalizing W -> ev, where the masses of the decaying particle and the invisible decay particle are, a priori, unknown. I prove that the transverse ...

Phenomenology of deflected anomaly-mediation

Riccardo Rattazzi

We explore the phenomenology of a class of models with anomaly-mediated supersymmetry breaking. These models retain the successful flavor properties of the minimal scenario while avoiding the tachyons. The mass spectrum is predicted in terms of a few param ...
