Title: Dynamical Supersymmetry Breaking and the Origins of Flavor
Host: Markus Luty
Room: 416
Abstract:
We explore calculable modes with low-energy supersymmetry in which the Standard Model flavor hierarchy is generated by quark and lepton compositeness, and where the composites emerge from the same dynamics that spontaneously breaks supersymmetry. These single-sector models -- which in many cases remain perturbative up to the GUT scale -- reproduce the fermion flavor hierarchy, align supersymmetric and Standard Model flavor, and may dynamically explain the Standard Model chiral index.
