Abstract

We present a generalization of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model, with an explicit μ term and a supersymmetric mass for the singlet superfield, as a route to alleviating the little hierarchy problem of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). Though this model does not address the μ problem of the MSSM, we are able to generate masses for the lightest neutral Higgs boson up to 140GeV with top squarks below the TeV scale, all couplings perturbative to the gauge unification scale, and with no need to fine-tune parameters in the scalar potential. This model more closely resembles the MSSM phenomenologically than the canonical next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model.
