Title:     The Upside of SUSY Seesaw: EWSB and Dark Matter in Anomaly Mediated SUSY Breaking

Abstract: Of the popular forms of supersymmetry breaking, anamoly mediated stands out as one of the most attractive and yet one of the most untenable methods. Amazingly, both of these characteristics stem from the same properties of AMSB: its independence of high scale physics and its small number of parameters.  One of the most well known and serious problems associated with these is tachyonic slepton masses, but another problem exists---electroweak symmetry breaking. This talk will discuss these problems, their solution in the form of a minimal supersymmetric seesaw model, the spectrum and the resulting dark matter candidates.

Stimulants available 15 minutes before the talk.
