A light Higgs boson would invite supersymmetry

If the Higgs boson weighs about 115 GeV, the effective potential of the Standard Model becomes unstable above a scale ofabout 106 GeV. This instability may be rectified only by new bosonic particles such as stop squarks. However, avoiding theinstability requires fine-tuning of the model couplings, i...
