N2 - We explore phenomenological implications of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) with a strong supersymmetry-breaking trilinear term. Supersymmetry breaking can trigger electroweak symmetry breaking via a symmetry-breaking seesaw mechanism, which can lead to a low-energy theory with multiple composite Higgs bosons. In this model, the electroweak phase transition can be first order for some generic values of parameters. Furthermore, there are additional sources of CP violation in the Higgs sector. This opens the possibility of electroweak baryogenesis in the strongly coupled MSSM. The extended Higgs dynamics can be discovered at the Large Hadron Collider or at a future linear collider.
