TL;DR
This paper explores how heterotic string models naturally lead to supersymmetric theories with distinctive features like gauge-top unification, a solution to the mu-problem, and suppressed soft breaking terms indicative of natural supersymmetry.
Contribution
It demonstrates that heterotic string models inherently produce a natural supersymmetry scenario with unique phenomenological signatures.
Findings
Gauge-top unification observed in heterotic models
A specific solution to the mu-problem is identified
Suppressed soft breaking terms consistent with natural supersymmetry
Abstract
The most promising MSSM candidates of the heterotic string reveal some distinctive properties. These include gauge-top unification, a specific solution to the mu-problem and mirage pattern for the gaugino masses. The location of the top- and the Higgs-multiplets in extra dimensions differs significantly from that of the other quarks and leptons leading to a characteristic signature of suppressed soft breaking terms, reminiscent of a scheme known as natural supersymmetry.
