Constrained exceptional supersymmetric standard model with a Higgs signal near 125 GeV

We study the parameter space of the constrained exceptional supersymmetric standard model (cE(6)SSM) consistent with a Higgs signal near 125 GeV and the LHC searches for squarks, gluinos and Z'. The cE(6)SSM parameter space, consistent with correct electroweak symmetry breaking, is represented by scans in the (m(0), M-1/2) plane for fixed Z' mass and tan beta, with squark, gluino and Higgs masses plotted as contours in this plane. We find that a 125 GeV Higgs mass only arises for a sufficiently large Z' mass, mostly above current limits, and for particular regions of squark and gluino masses corresponding to multi-TeV squark masses, but with lighter gluinos typically within reach of the LHC 8 TeVor forthcoming 14 TeV runs. Successful dark matter relic abundance may be achieved over all the parameter space, assuming a binolike lightest supersymmetric particle with a nearby heavier inert Higgsino doublet and decoupled inert singlinos, resulting in conventional gluino decay signatures. A set of typical benchmark points with a Higgs near 125 GeV is provided which exemplifies these features.
