From a theoretical point of view it is not hard to imagine gaugino masses being much lighter than scalar masses. The dominant contributions to gaugino masses are then their anomaly-mediated values. Given current lower bounds on gauginos, which are near the W-mass scale, considering a little hierarchy between weak-scale gauginos and much heavier scalars requires suspending normal intuition on finetuning and naturalness of the Higgs potential. Nevertheless, tantalizing perks come from the hypothesis: lessened flavor and CP violation problems, more compatibility with gauge coupling unification and third generation Yukawa unification, suppressed dimension-five proton decay operators, and no problems satisfying the current Higgs mass constraint for any value of tan(beta) consistent with the top and bottom Yukawa couplings remaining finite up to the grand unified scale. The Tevatron has little chance of finding any evidence of this theory given current constraints. The LHC does well looking for pair production of gluinos which three-body decay into potentially spectacular final states. Dark matter relic abundance can be cosmologically interesting, but table-top experiments will not see LSPs scattering off nucleons. On the other hand, experiments looking for monochromatic photons from LSP annihilations in the galactic halo may find them.
