Landscape Higgs boson and sparticle mass predictions from a logarithmic soft term distribution

Recent work on calculating string theory landscape statistical predictions for the Higgs boson and sparticle mass spectrum from an assumed power-law soft term distribution yields an expectation for m(h) approximate to 125 GeV with sparticles (save light Higgsinos) somewhat beyond the reach of the high-luminosity LHC. A recent examination of the statistics of supersymmetry breaking in BB string models with stabilized moduli suggests a power law for models based on Kachru-Kallosh-Linde-Trivedi stabilization and uplifting, while models based on the large-volume scenario instead yield an expected logarithmic soft term distribution. We evaluate statistical distributions for the Higgs boson and sparticle masses from the landscape with a log soft term distribution and find the Higgs mass still peaks around similar to 125 GeV with sparticles beyond the LHC reach, albeit with somewhat softer distributions than those arising from a power law.

Automated summary

Recent research on string theory landscape calculations suggests a Higgs boson mass around 125 GeV and sparticle masses beyond the reach of the high-luminosity LHC. Studies on supersymmetry breaking in BB string models indicate a power law distribution for certain stabilization methods, while large-volume scenarios yield a logarithmic soft term distribution. Evaluations of statistical distributions for the Higgs boson and sparticle masses show peaks around 125 GeV with sparticles beyond the reach of the LHC, albeit with softer distributions than those based on a power law.
