SUMMARY:Aspects of Goldstini
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Jesse Thaler\, MIT\n\nPart of the HET Seminar Series.
	\n\nAbstract:\nSupersymmetric phenomenology has been largely bound to the h
	ypothesis that supersymmetry breaking originates from a single source.  How
	ever\, if there is a multiplicity of sectors which independently break supe
	rsymmetry\, then there is a corresponding multiplicity of goldstini.  While
	 one linear combination of goldstini is eaten by the gravitino via the supe
	r-Higgs mechanism\, the orthogonal combinations remain in the spectrum as p
	hysical degrees of freedom. These goldstini can have a dramatic impact on c
	osmology and collider phenomenology.  In this talk\, I report on a number o
	f interesting goldstini possibilities\, including modifications to big bang
	 nucleosynthesis and enhanced Higgs production rates at the LHC.  I will al
	so discuss a new way to do supergravity calculations via a modified conform
	al compensator\, which clarifies some otherwise confusing results in the go
	ldstini spectrum.
