The No-Scale Multiverse at the LHC

We present a contemporary perspective on the String Landscape and the Multiverse of plausible string, M- and F-theory vacua, seeking to demonstrate a non-zero probability for the existence of a universe matching our own observed physics within the solution ensemble. We argue for the importance of No-Scale Supergravity as an essential common underpinning for the spontaneous emergence of a cosmologically flat universe from the quantum "nothingness". Our context is a highly detailed phenomenological probe of No-Scale Script F-SU(5), a model representing the intersection of the Script F-lipped SU(5) × U(1)x Grand Unified Theory (GUT) with extra TeV-Scale vector-like multiplets derived out of Script F-theory, and the dynamics of No-Scale Supergravity. The latter in turn imply a very restricted set of high energy boundary conditions.

We present a highly constrained "golden point" located near M_1/2 = 455 GeV and tan β = 15 in the tan β - M_1/2 plane, and a highly non-trivial "golden strip" with tan β ≃ 15, m_t = 173.0-174.4 GeV, M_1/2 = 455-481 GeV, and M_v = 691-1020 GeV, which simultaneously satisfies all the known experimental constraints, featuring also an imminently observable proton decay rate. We supplement this bottom-up phenomenological perspective with a top-down theoretical analysis of the one-loop effective Higgs potential. A striking consonance is achieved via the dynamic determination of tan β and M_1/2 for fixed Z-boson mass at the local minimum minimorum of the potential, that being the secondary minimization of the spontaneously broken electroweak Higgs vacuum V_min. By also indirectly determining the electroweak scale, we suggest that this constitutes a complete resolution of the Standard Model gauge hierarchy problem.

Finally, we present the distinctive collider level signatures of No-Scale Script F-SU(5) for the √s = 7 TeV LHC, with 1 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity. The characteristic feature is a light stop and gluino, both sparticles lighter than all other squarks, generating a surplus of ultra-high multiplicity (>= 9) hadronic jet events. We propose modest alterations to the canonical background selection cut strategy which are expected to yield significantly enhanced resolution of the characteristic ultra-high jet multiplicity Script F-SU(5) events, while readily suppressing the contribution of all Standard Model processes, and allowing moreover a clear differentiation from competing models of new physics, most notably minimal supergravity. Detection by the LHC of the ultra-high jet signal would constitute a suggestive evocation of the intimately linked stringy origins of Script F-SU(5), and could possibly provide a glimpse into the underlying structure of the fundamental string moduli, possibly even opening a darkened glass upon the hidden workings of the No-Scale Multiverse.
