I find that over more than $99\\%$ of the parameter space, $\\alpha_3>0.120$ implies that $m_{1/2}$ is below $10\\TeV$ and $\\alpha_3>0.129$ implies that $m_{1/2}$ is below $1\\TeV$. I express the variation of these bounds over the SSM parameter space with a numerical coefficient, $c$. I also find that in the SSM, a reasonable value of $50\\GeV<m_{1/2}<1\\TeV$ requires $\\alpha_3>0.119$ over the whole para"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"hep-ph/9502344","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
