The abstract, sentence by sentence

We show that supersymmetry breaking in a class of theories with SU(N) x SU(N-2) gauge symmetry can be studied in a calculable sigma model. We use the sigma model to show that the supersymmetry breaking vacuum in these theories leaves a large subgroup of flavor symmetries intact, and to calculate the masses of the low-lying states. By embedding the Standard Model gauge groups in the unbroken flavor symmetry group we construct a class of models in which supersymmetry breaking is communicated by both gravitational and gauge interactions. One distinguishing feature of these models is that the messenger fields, responsible for the gauge mediated communication of supersymmetry breaking, are an integral part of the supersymmetry breaking sector. We also show how, by lowering the scale that suppresses the nonrenormalizable operators, a class of purely gauge mediated models with a combined supersymmetry breaking-cum-messenger sector can be built. We briefly discuss the phenomenological features of the models we construct.

The paper

Original abstract

We show that supersymmetry breaking in a class of theories with SU(N) x SU(N-2) gauge symmetry can be studied in a calculable sigma model. We use the sigma model to show that the supersymmetry breaking vacuum in these theories leaves a large subgroup of flavor symmetries intact, and to calculate the masses of the low-lying states. By embedding the Standard Model gauge groups in the unbroken flavor symmetry group we construct a class of models in which supersymmetry breaking is communicated by both gravitational and gauge interactions. One distinguishing feature of these models is that the messenger fields, responsible for the gauge mediated communication of supersymmetry breaking, are an integral part of the supersymmetry breaking sector. We also show how, by lowering the scale that suppresses the nonrenormalizable operators, a class of purely gauge mediated models with a combined supersymmetry breaking-cum-messenger sector can be built. We briefly discuss the phenomenological features of the models we construct.

R-symmetric gauge mediation
hep-ph 2008-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

R-symmetric gauge mediation gives Dirac gaugino masses that scale as the square of the supersymmetry-breaking order parameter, making gauginos lighter than sfermions, the opposite of ordinary gauge mediation.
Direct Mediation of Meta-Stable Supersymmetry Breaking
hep-ph 2006-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

A small deformation of the ISS metastable supersymmetry breaking model generates gaugino masses at leading order and, for large color number or a conformal window, avoids Landau poles.
Retrofitting O'Raifeartaigh Models with Dynamical Scales
hep-th 2006-08 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

Small mass parameters in O'Raifeartaigh and Fayet supersymmetry-breaking models can be generated dynamically by coupling them to a hidden Yang-Mills sector, with discrete R symmetries enforcing the structure.
Naive Dimensional Analysis and Supersymmetry
hep-ph 1997-06 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

Extending naive dimensional analysis to supersymmetric theories yields the rule that a strongly coupled supersymmetry-breaking sector with no small parameters has Goldstino decay constant F of order Λ²/(4π).
Primordial Black Hole Formation in a Double Inflation Model in Supergravity
hep-ph 1997-10 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

The double-inflation model yields a tilted fluctuation spectrum that can form solar-mass primordial black holes in a restricted parameter region, offered as a possible MACHO explanation.

These aesthetic shortcomings have led people to seek models of “direct gauge mediation”, in which the standard model gauge group is embedded in the unbroken global symmetry of the DSB model [ref] .

Comments on the Meta-Stable Vacuum in N_f=N_c SQCD and Direct Mediation · Introduction · 0.82
In this scheme of gauge mediation the messengers interact with the hidden sector through gauge interactions only, but, unlike in direct gauge mediation models [ref] , they are irrelevant to the mechanism of dynamical supersymmetry breaking (DSB).

Natural semi-direct gauge mediation and D-branes at singularities · Introduction · 0.85
Even though the ISS model looks as a good starting point for direct gauge mediation (for early models see [ref] ), it should be modified in order to produce viable phenomenology.
