Lepton flavor violation in type I + III seesaw
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the presence of a low scale seesaw of type I + III, flavor violating effects in the leptonic sector are expected. Their presence in the charged sector is due to the mixing of the fermionic vector-like weak triplets with the chiral doublets, which cause non-universality of the tree-level Z coupling. We investigate the bounds on the Yukawa couplings which are responsible for the mixing and present the results for two minimal cases, a fermionic triplet with a singlet or two fermionic triplets. Different channels for these processes are considered and their current and future potential to probe these couplings is discussed.

A minimal supersymmetric SO(10) model with one 10 and one 126 Higgs superfield has recently been shown to predict all neutrino mixings as well as the solar mass difference squared in agreement with observations. Two assumptions critical to the predictivity and success of the model are that: (i) the superpotential includes only renormalizable terms, thereby limiting the number of free parameters...
متن کاملCharged lepton flavor violation beyond minimal supersymmetry
We discuss charged lepton flavor violation in supersymmetric models with extended leptonic sectors at low energies. Contrary to the usual high-scale realizations of the seesaw mechanism, these non-minimal supersymmetric models have new superfields and/or interactions at the supersymmetric scale. As a consequence of this, the resulting lepton flavor violating phenomenology may be very different ...
متن کاملLepton Flavor Violation and the Origin of the Seesaw Mechanism
The right–handed neutrino mass matrix that is central to the understanding of small neutrino masses via the seesaw mechanism can arise either (i) from renormalizable operators or (ii) from nonrenormalizable or superrenormalizable operators, depending on the symmetries and the Higgs content of the theory beyond the Standard Model. In this paper, we study lepton flavor violating (LFV) effects in ...
