Quasi-fixed point scenario in the modified NMSSM

Abstract

The simplest extension of the MSSM that does not contradict LEP II experimental bound on the lightest Higgs boson mass at $\tan \beta \sim 1$ is the modified Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MNSSM). We investigate the renormalization of Yukawa couplings and soft SUSY breaking terms in this model. The possibility of $b$-quark and $\tau$-lepton Yukawa coupling unification at the Grand Unification scale $M_X$ is studied. The particle spectrum is analysed in the vicinity of the quasi-fixed point where the solutions of renormalization group equations are concentrated at the electroweak scale.
