B How Does the Higgs Boson Mass Impact Multiverse and Supersymmetry Theories?

alejandromeira
What are the consequences of the experimental value of the Higgs boson mass for theories of multiverse and supersymmetry?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The Higgs boson mass significantly constrains the available parameter space of many supersymmetry theories. But, there isn't a really good compact way of describing that impact because there are so many versions of SUSY and so many free parameters in the theory.

It really has no obvious impact on theories of multiverse which really don't deserve the title of "theories" anyway.
 
Ok. Thank you so much. I still have a lot to study.
 
The most interesting (for me, can't speak for others) consequence of measured Higgs boson mass value is a few unexplained correlations:

With measured top and Higgs masses, SM sits right on vacuum stability/metastability line.
Sum of squares of all SM bosons' masses is equal to half of square of Higgs VEV to within 0.35%.
 

Thread 'Detecting Gravitons?'

I seem to notice a buildup of papers like this: Detecting single gravitons with quantum sensing. (OK, old one.) Toward graviton detection via photon-graviton quantum state conversion Is this akin to “we’re soon gonna put string theory to the test”, or are these legit? Mind, I’m not expecting anyone to read the papers and explain them to me, but if one of you educated people already have an opinion I’d like to hear it. If not please ignore me. EDIT: I strongly suspect it’s bunk but...

Thread 'Inertial mass, the Higgs field, and Mach's Principle'

I'm trying to understand the relationship between the Higgs mechanism and the concept of inertia. The Higgs field gives fundamental particles their rest mass, but it doesn't seem to directly explain why a massive object resists acceleration (inertia). My question is: How does the Standard Model account for inertia? Is it simply taken as a given property of mass, or is there a deeper connection to the vacuum structure? Furthermore, how does the Higgs mechanism relate to broader concepts like...
