Abstract

We explore the sparticle and Higgs spectroscopy of an SU(5) inspired extension of the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model. The universal soft parameter m0 is replaced by m5¯ and m10, where m5¯ and m10 denote universal soft scalar masses associated with fields in the five- and ten-dimensional representations of SU(5). The special case m5¯m10 yields a rather characteristic sparticle spectroscopy, which can be tested at the LHC. We highlight a few benchmark points in which the lightest neutralino saturates the WMAP bound on cold dark matter abundance.
