Supersymmetry, Cosmology, and New Physics at Teraelectronvolt Energies

Pagels, Heinz, Primack, Joel R.·1982·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

If one assumes a spontaneously broken local supersymmetry, big-bang cosmology implies that the universe is filled with a gravitino (${g}_{\frac{3}{2}}$) gas---possibly its dominant constituent. From the observational bound on the cosmological mass density it follows that ${m}_{{g}_{\frac{3}{2}}}\ensuremath{\lesssim}1$ keV. Correspondingly, the supersymmetry breaking parameter $F$ satisfies $\sqrt{F}\ensuremath{\lesssim}2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{3}$ TeV, requiring new supersymmetric physics in the teraelectronvolt energy region. An exact sum rule is derived and used to estimate the threshold and cross section for the production of the new states.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
