Description

We study the electroweak phenomenology of Higgs Inflation within the Next-to-minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM). The model has a superconformal symmetry at high scales which is broken by the non-minimal coupling to supergravity responsible for early universe inflation. At low energies, however, the model differs from the usual NMSSM. With an emphasis on the Higgs and Neutralino sectors of the model, we work out possible smoking gun signatures of Higgs Inflation at the electroweak scale.
