Z 2-odd Polonyi field in twin Higgs model

Abstract We consider a supersymmetric mirror Twin Higgs model in a gravity-mediated supersymmetry-breaking scenario. We point out that the Polonyi field can be odd under the Z 2 symmetry exchanging the Standard Model with the mirror sector while gaugino masses are generated at tree-level. We discuss...

description Abstract We consider a supersymmetric mirror Twin Higgs model in a gravity-mediated supersymmetry-breaking scenario. We point out that the Polonyi field can be odd under the Z 2 symmetry exchanging the Standard Model with the mirror sector while gaugino masses are generated at tree-level. We discuss the dynamics of the Polonyi field during and after inflation and show that the Polonyi problem is absent. The Polonyi field couples to the two sectors with opposite signs, which may serve as origin of the Z 2-breaking of the Higgs potential in Twin Higgs models. We also estimate the Z 2-breaking in soft masses of supersymmetric particles.
