Abstract
We investigate supersymmetric SO(10) GUT model with μ < 0. The requirements of top-bottom-tau Yukawa unification, correct radiative electroweak symmetry breaking and agreement with the present experimental data may be met when the soft masses of scalars and gauginos are non-universal. We show how appropriate non-universalities can easily be obtained in the SO(10) GUT broken to the Standard Model. We discuss how values of BR(b → sγ) and (g − 2) μ simultaneously in a good agreement with the experimental data can be achieved in SO(10) model with μ < 0. In the region of the parameter space preferred by our analysis there are two main mechanisms leading to the LSP relic abundance consistent with the WMAP results. One is the co-annihilation with the stau and the second is the resonant annihilation via exchange of the Z boson or the light Higgs scalar. A very interesting feature of SO(10) models with negative μ is that they predict relatively light sparticle spectra. Even the heaviest superpartners may easily have masses below 1.5 TeV in contrast to multi-TeV particles typical for models with positive μ.
