Abstract

In direct gauge mediation, the gaugino masses are anomalously small, giving rise to a split SUSY spectrum. Here we investigate the superpartner spectrum in a minimal version of “direct gaugino mediation”. We find that the sfermion masses are comparable to those of the gauginos — even in the hybrid gaugino-gauge mediation regime — if the messenger scale is sufficiently small.
