Abstract

The electroweak (EW) sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) can account for variety of experimental data. The lighest supersymmetric particle (LSP), which we take as the lightest neutralino, {tilde{chi }}_{1}^0, can account for the observed Dark Matter (DM) content of the universe via coannihilation with the next-to-LSP (NLSP), while being in agreement with negative results from Direct Detection (DD) experiments. Owing to relatively small production cross-sections a comparably light EW sector of the MSSM is also in agreement with the unsuccessful searches at the LHC. Most importantly, the EW sector of the MSSM can account for the persistent 3-4,sigma discrepancy between the experimental result for the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, (g-2)_mu , and its Standard Model (SM) prediction. Under the assumption that the {tilde{chi }}_{1}^0 provides the full DM relic abundance we first analyze which mass ranges of neutralinos, charginos and scalar leptons are in agreement with all experimental data, including relevant LHC searches. We find an upper limit of sim 600 ,, mathrm {GeV} for the LSP and NLSP masses. In a second step we assume that the new result of the Run 1 of the “MUON G-2” collaboration at Fermilab yields a precision comparable to the existing experimental result with the same central value. We analyze the potential impact of the combination of the Run 1 data with the existing (g-2)_mu data on the allowed MSSM parameter space. We find that in this case the upper limits on the LSP and NLSP masses are substantially reduced by roughly 100 ,, mathrm {GeV}. This would yield improved upper limits on these masses of sim 500 ,, mathrm {GeV}. In this way, a clear target could be set for future LHC EW searches, as well as for future high-energy e^+e^- colliders, such as the ILC or CLIC.

Summary

Introduction

One of the most important tasks at the LHC is to search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). Improved experimental results are expected in the course of 2020 by the publication of the Run 1 data of the “MUON G-2” experiment [3] Another clear sign for BSM physics is the precise measurement of the CDM relic abundance [4]. The direct searches at the LHC Run I, the () current (g − 2)μ deviation from its SM prediction, the measurement of the CDM relic abundance and the limits from CDM DD experiments have been analyzed in a global fit to the phenomenological MSSM with 11 parameter (pMSSM11 [24]) in [25]. We will comment on the discovery prospects for these particles at possible future e+e− colliders, such as the ILC [36,37] or CLIC [37,38,39,40]
