Abstract
The apparent discovery of a Higgs boson with mass ∼125 GeV has had a significant impact on the constrained minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (the CMSSM). Much of the low-mass parameter space in the CMSSM has been excluded by supersymmetric particle searches at the LHC as well as by the Higgs mass measurement and the emergent signal for B s →μ + μ −. Here, we consider the impact of these recent LHC results on several variants of the CMSSM with a primary focus on obtaining a Higgs mass of ∼125 GeV. In particular, we consider the one- and two-parameter extensions of the CMSSM with one or both of the Higgs masses set independently of the common sfermion mass, m 0 (the NUHM1,2). We also consider the one-parameter extension of the CMSSM in which the input universality scale M in is below the GUT scale (the sub-GUT CMSSM). Finally, we reconsider mSUGRA models with sub-GUT universality, which have the same number of parameters as the CMSSM. We find that when M in<M GUT large regions of parameter space open up where the relic density of neutralinos can successfully account for dark matter with a Higgs boson mass ∼125 GeV. Interestingly, we find that the preferred range of the A-term in sub-GUT mSUGRA models straddles that predicted by the simplest Polonyi model.

Notes
Historically, this sign of μ has been favoured by the supersymmetric interpretation of g μ −2 (we display g μ −2-compatible regions in Fig. 2 but not in subsequent figures) and to facilitate compatibility with b→sγ. However, since the LHC constraints now disfavour regions of the CMSSM parameter space that ‘explain’ the g μ −2 discrepancy (as seen in Fig. 2), this assumption should be taken with a grain of salt.
Because of the combination of recent experimental constraints, we are forced to consider substantially larger ranges in the displayed supersymmetric parameters such as m 0 and m 1/2. Therefore, here and in many other figures, for reasons of visibility we shade wider strips where 0.06<Ω χ h 2<0.2.
As discussed in [38], this limit is generally stronger than other direct searches for supersymmetry at the LHC in the models studied, and is largely independent of tanβ and A 0. Based on the analysis in [130], in the upper left panel of Fig. 2 we have assumed that the constraint published in [128] is independent of m 1/2 when extrapolated to lower m 0.
We recall that the focus-point strip is excluded by the XENON100 upper limit on spin-independent dark matter scattering.
The width of the structure is enhanced for visibility by colouring the area where 0.06<Ω χ h 2<0.2.
