Supersymmetric mu problem ($W\supset \mu H_u{H}_d$)

The MSSM permits a supersymmetric Higgs mass $\mu$, whose natural size is not fixed by soft supersymmetry breaking. Weak-scale symmetry breaking requires it to be comparable to the soft scale rather than a much larger fundamental scale. Superpotential non-renormalization protects a chosen small value radiatively but does not explain that choice; relating its generation to the breaking mechanism addresses the mu problem.
