Description
If the string landscape has any validity, the universe has in the past and should in the future make transitions to
other local (or absolute minima). A prime model for the physics of
a future universe is the zero vacuum energy minimal supersymmetric standard model or one
of its variations with all susy breaking terms put to zero. If we assume that this transition is accelerated in dense matter, some aspects of supernovae Ia which are challenging to the standard accretion picture
can be naturally explained.
