 mssm
In the supersymmetric extension, the fact that these couplings are determined in terms of known gauge couplings leads to an important prediction for the Z mass when studying the electroweak symmetry breaking pattern.
This was explored in the first realizations of the supersymmetric extensions of the standard model, but subsequently was neglected in favor of the supergravity messenger.
In this scheme the lightest supersymmetric particle is the gravitino.

 Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Higgs mass of the Standard Model is unstable to quantum corrections and the theory predicts that weak scale should be much weaker than what is observed to be.
The MSSM imposes R-parity to explain the stability of the proton.
The original motivation for proposing the MSSM was to stabilize the Higgs mass to radiative corrections that are quadratically divergent in the Standard Model (hierarchy problem).

 Supersymmetry to the rescue? - 3
A supersymmetric particle model consists of a collection of particle supermultiplets and a set of potentials that describe the interactions between the particles.
When all of the Standard Model fields are expressed in terms of chiral and gauge multiplets, and interactions terms are added, the resulting particle theory is called the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, or MSSM for short.
The particles predicted by the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model are all of the particles that are already observed in the Standard Model, plus one extra Higgs doublet, and the supersymmetry partners of those particles.

The present status of precision tests of the electroweak Standard Model (SM) is summarized and the resulting indirect constraints on the mass of the SM Higgs boson are discussed.
In the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) the mass of the lightest Higgs boson is not a free parameter as in the SM, and a firm upper bound can be established.
The possible interplay between the LHC and a future Linear Collider in analyzing the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking and the underlying structure of Supersymmetric models is investigated.

 2. Supersymmetry
Unfortunately, this leads to a lack of predictive power--just as the masses in the Standard Model all the particle masses are arbitrary and must be measured, the same is true in the MSSM.
In the Standard Model, we don't bother distinguishing between left- and right-handed fermions, since they have the same mass and can be easily converted into each other by flipping the spins.
Their supersymmetric partners are spin-0, so the partner of the left-handed fermion can be completely unrelated to the partner of the right-handed fermion, so the sfermions appear as two different states with different masses.

 The Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model
If the particle spectrum of the MSSM appears unappealing, fortunately this is not the case for the gauge interactions, where a particle and its superpartner have identical interactions, e.g.
In its most general formulation, the MSSM introduces a total of 105 new free parameters, which are obviously too many to construct a model that is able to make any predictions.
The assumptions made above may seem quite arbritrary, but by considering SUSY models where supersymmetry is promoted from a global to a local symmetry, that automatically incorporates gravity and also take into account the mechanism of the breaking of supersymmetry, in this so-called Supergravity models, these assumptions follow quite naturally (for a review see e.g.

 Supersymmetry and Precision Experiments
In the standard model the Higgs mass is arbitrary.
It is given by the squares of gauge couplings, with the result that all supersymmetric models have at least one Higgs scalar that is relatively light, typically with a mass similar to the Z mass.
The MSSM yields a better fit to the precision data than the standard model [26], but that is mainly due to the anomalous experimental value of

 MSSM
The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics has been confirmed precisely in a wide variety of experiments.
In the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM), each SM particle is accompanied by a superpartner with the same gauge quantum numbers as given in Table 1.
In order to write down a theory that is supersymmetric, one requires two Higgs doublets with hypercharges 1 and -1, respectively, in contrast to the SM where one Higgs doublet suffices.

 What about string theory?
So supersymmetric theories are good places to look for exotic matter in the form of fermionic superpartners of bosonic particles that carry forces.
In the Standard Model of particle physics, recall there is a spontaneously broken symmetry that gives mass to the weak interaction gauge bosons through the Higgs potential.
One advantage to this model is that it incorporates the very stringy behavior of T duality and the self dual point, so it is a very inherently stringy cosmology.

We present a supersymmetric grand unified model leading to violation of Yukawa unification and, thus, allowing an acceptable b-quark mass within the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model with mu>0.
The model possesses a wide range of parameters consistent with the data on the cold dark matter abundance as well as other phenomenological constraints.
Its relic abundance in the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model can be reduced to acceptable values by pole annihilation of neutralinos or neutralino-stau coannihilation.

Recently, we have shown that if one uses the so-called type II seesaw mechanism, then a minimal SO(10) model very naturally predicts the solar and atmospheric neutrino mixing angles to be large in agreement with experiment and the reactor angle $\theta_{13}$ to be small.
The minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model has however severe problems explaining the observed smallness of flavor violating effects as well as the CP violating effects.
Recently, we have advocated that if MSSM is the low energy effective theory emerging from a left-right gauge structure, the CP problems may be solved completely; similarly, the embedding of MSSM into a local horizontal symmetry may solve the flavor problem.

 R-parity
The general superpotential of MSSM contains terms where the baryon and the lepton numbers are violated.
It is a multiplicative quantum number where all the particles of the Standard Model have positive R-parity, while their superpartners have negative R-parity, where the quantum number is given by
for a particle with spin S and baryon- and lepton number B and L. This symmetry has a great influence of the phenomenology of the MSSM, since it requires that supersymmetric particles always are produced in pairs.

Authors: Panagiotakopoulos, C. Pilaftsis, A. We review the basic field-theoretic and phenomenological features of the recently introduced Minimal Nonminimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MNSSM).
The introduced model is the simplest and most economic version among the proposed nonminimal supersymmetric models, in which the so-called μ-problem can be successfully addressed.
As opposed to the MSSM and the frequently-discussed NMSSM, the MNSSM can naturally predict the existence of a light charged Higgs boson with a mass smaller than 100 GeV.

Is the minimal Standard Model the unique low-energy limit of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM)?
It is well known that the MSSM is not the supersymmetric Minimal Standard Model because it has two Higgs doublets, not just the one.
I will explain why this statement has implications for the Higgs sector of the MSSM far beyond those widely understood: it can generate deviations in Higgs decay ratios, new sources of CP violation, and most importantly, new sources of flavor-changing neutral currents.
