Dirac Gauginos in General Gauge Mediation

Understand

We extend the formulation by Meade, Seiberg and Shih of general gauge mediation of supersymmetry breaking to include Dirac masses for the gauginos.

• These appear through mixing of the visible sector gauginos with additional states in adjoint representations.
• We illustrate the method by reproducing the existing results in the literature for the gaugino and sfermion masses when preserving R-symmetry.
• We then explain how the generation of same sign masses for the two propagating degrees of freedom in the adjoint scalars can be achieved.
