Mirage Pattern from the Heterotic String

We provide a simple example of dilaton stabilization in the framework of heterotic string theory. It requires a gaugino condensate and an up-lifting sector similar to the one postulated in type IIB string theory. Its signature is a hybrid mediation of supersymmetry breakdown with a variant of a mirage pattern for the soft breaking terms. The set-up is suited for the discussion of heterotic MSSM candidates.

Gaugino Condensation with a Doubly Suppressed Gravitino Mass

Supersymmetry breakdown via gaugino condensation in heterotic string theory can lead to models with a doubly suppressed gravitino mass. A TeV scale gravitino can emerge from a condensate as large as the grand unified scale. We analyze the properties of these models and discuss applications for particle physics and cosmology.
