Supersymmetry Breaking Through Confining and Dual Theory Gauge Dynamics

Abstract

We show that theories in the confining, free magnetic, and conformal phases can break supersymmetry through dynamical effects. To illustrate this, we present theories based on the gauge groups $SU(n)\times SU(4)\times U(1)$ and $SU(n)\times SU(5)\times U(1)$ with the field content obtained by decomposing an $SU(m)$ theory with an antisymmetric tensor and $m-4$ antifundamentals.
