Sparticle Spectrum and Dark Matter in M-Theory

Abstract

The phenomenological implications of the eleven dimensional limit of $M$-theory (strongly coupled $E_8\times E_8$) are investigated. In particular we calculate the supersymmetric spectrum subject to constraints of correct electroweak symmetry breaking and the requirement that the lighest supersymmetric particle provides the dark matter of the universe. The $B$-soft term associated with the generation of a $\mu$ term in the superpotential is calculated and its phenomenology is discussed.
