| The Minimal Supersymmetric Model does not explain why the mu parameter in the [[superpotential]] term <math>\mu H_u H_d</math> is at the electroweak scale. The idea behind the '''Next to Minimal Supersymmetric Model''' is to promote the mu term to a gauge singlet, [[chiral superfield]] <math>S</math>. Note that the scalar superpartner of the singlino <math>S</math> is denoted by <math>\hat{S}</math> and the spin-1/2 singlino superpartner by <math>\tilde{S}</math> in the following. The superpotential for the NMSSM is given by
| |
| :<math>W_{\text{NMSSM}}=W_{\text{Yuk}}+\lambda S H_u H_d + \frac{\kappa}{3} S^3 </math>
| |
| where <math>W_{\text{Yuk}}</math> gives the Yukawa couplings for the Standard Model fermions. Since the superpotential has mass dimension three, the couplings <math>\lambda</math> and <math>\kappa</math> are dimensionless, hence the mu problem of the MSSM is solved in the NMSSM – the superpotential of the NMSSM is scale invariant. The role of the <math>\lambda</math> term is to generate an effective <math>\mu</math> term. This is done with the scalar component of the singlet <math>\hat{S}</math> getting a vacuum-expectation value <math>\langle \hat{S} \rangle</math>, that is, we have <math>\mu_{\text{eff}}= \lambda \langle \hat{S} \rangle </math>. Without the <math>\kappa</math> term the superpotential would have a U(1)' symmetry, so-called Peccei–Quinn symmetry; see [[Peccei–Quinn theory]]. This additional symmetry would alter the phenomenology completely. The role of the <math>\kappa</math> term is to break this U(1)' symmetry. The <math>\kappa</math> term is introduced trilinear such that <math>\kappa</math> is dimensionless. However there remains a discrete <math>\mathbb{Z}_3</math> symmetry, which is moreover broken spontaneously.<ref>

| It is assumed that the domain wall problem is circumvented in this way without any modifications except far beyond the electroweak scale.
| |
| | |
| Also alternative models have been proposed which solve the <math>\mu</math> problem of the MSSM. One idea is to keep the <math>\kappa</math> term in the superpotential and take the U(1)' symmetry into account. Assuming this symmetry to be local an additional <math>Z'</math> gauge boson is predicted in
| |
| this model, called UMSSM.

| | |
| == Phenomenology ==
| |
| Due to the additional singlet <math>S</math> the NMSSM alters in general the phenomenology of both the Higgs sector and the neutralino sector compared to the MSSM.
| |
| | |
| === Higgs phenomenology ===
| |
| In the Standard Model we have one physical Higgs boson. In the MSSM we encounter five physical Higgs bosons. Due to the additional singlet <math>\hat{S}</math> in the NMSSM we have two more Higgs bosons, that is, in total seven physical Higgs bosons. The Higgs sector is therefore much richer compared to the MSSM. In particular, the Higgs potential is in general no longer invariant under CP transformations; see [[CP violation]]. Typically, the Higgs bosons in the NMSSM are denoted in an order with increasing masses, that is, by <math>H_1, H_2, ..., H_7</math> with <math>H_1</math> the lightest Higgs boson. In the special case of a CP conserving Higgs potential we have three CP even Higgs bosons, <math>H_1, H_2, H_3</math>, two CP odd ones, <math> A_1, A_2</math> and a pair of charged Higgs bosons, <math>H^+, H^-</math>. In the MSSM, the lightest Higgs boson is always Standard Model-like, and therefore its production and decays are roughly known. In the NMSSM, the lightest Higgs can be very light (even of the order of 1 GeV) and may have escaped detection so far. In addition, in the CP-conserving case, the lightest CP-even Higgs boson turns out to have an enhanced lower bound compared to the MSSM. This is one of the reasons why the NMSSM deserves much attraction in recent years.
| |
| | |
| === Neutralino phenomenology ===
| |
| The spin-1/2 singlino <math>\tilde{S}</math> gives a fifth neutralino, compared to the four neutralinos of the MSSM. The singlino does not couple to gauge bosons, gauginos (the superpartners of the gauge bosons), leptons, sleptons (the superpartners of the leptons), quarks or squarks (the superpartners of the quarks). Supposed that a supersymmetric partner particle is produced at a collider, for instance at the [[LHC]], the singlino is omitted in cascade decays and therefore escapes detection. However in case the singlino is the [[lightest supersymmetric particle]] (LSP) all supersymmetric partner particles eventually decay into the singlino. Due to [[R parity]] conservation this LSP is stable. In this way the singlino could be detected via missing transversal energy in the detector.
