Abstract

We present the latest results from the MasterCode collaboration on supersymmetric models, in particular on the CMSSM, the NUHM1, the NUHM2 and the pMSSM. We combine the data from LHC Run I with astrophysical observables, flavor and electroweak precision observables. We determine the best fit regions of these models and analyze the discovery potential of squarks and gluinos at LHC Run II and direct detection experiments.

Highlights

  • Despite the absence of any convincing signal of supersummetry (SUSY) after Run 1 at the large hadron collider (LHC), SUSY remains well motivated

  • In these proceedings we present a selection of the results from global frequentist fits of constrained models of SUSY - the constrained MSSM (CMSSM), NUHM1, NUHM2 and pMSSM10 - to experimental constraints from Run I LHC data, astrophysical observables, flavor and electroweak observables

  • We consider four constrained versions of the general R-parity-conserving Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM). Three of these models are derived from grand unified theory (GUT) model-building considerations, where masses and couplings are assumed to unify at the GUT scale: In the constrained MSSM (CMSSM) all scalars have a universal soft SUSY-breaking mass m0, the gauginos a universal mass m1/2, and the trilinear couplings are all equal to A0

Summary

Introduction

Despite the absence of any convincing signal of supersummetry (SUSY) after Run 1 at the large hadron collider (LHC), SUSY remains well motivated. SUSY allows for unification of the gauge coupling at the so-called grand unified theory (GUT) scale of O(1016 GeV). In these proceedings we present a selection of the results from global frequentist fits of constrained models of SUSY - the CMSSM, NUHM1, NUHM2 and pMSSM10 (defined below) - to experimental constraints from Run I LHC data, astrophysical observables, flavor and electroweak observables. We have published elsewhere some of the results shown in these proceedings, namely on the CMSSM, NUHM1 and NUHM2 [1, 2]. Some recent fits of CMSSM, NUHM1 and NUHM2 may be found in [3,4,5,6], whereas results on the pMSSM may be found in [7, 8].
