Calculating the Bound on the Light Higgs Mass in General SUSY Models

الأصل · EN

In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) the existence of an upper bound on the mass of the CP=+1 lightest Higgs boson, equal to mZ at tree--level and 120GeV after the inclusion of radiative corrections, has important phenomenological consequences for Higgs searches. A similar bound, independent of mass parameters other than the electroweak scale, can be calculated in supersymmetric models with an extended Higgs sector. In models with arbitrary Higgs sectors perturbative up to 10¹⁶GeV, we find, including radiative corrections, mₕ 155GeV for mₜ 190GeV.
