Flavour non-conservation in goldstino interactions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We point out that the interactions of goldstinos with matter supermultiplets are a potential source of flavour violation, if fermion and sfermion mass matrices are not aligned and supersymmetry is spontaneously broken at a low scale. We study the impact of those couplings on low-energy processes such as μ → eγ, μ → eee, K → μ+μ−, K-K transitions and analogous ones. Moreover, we address the issue of flavour violation in low-energy processes involving two goldstinos and two matter fermions, generalizing earlier results obtained in the flavour-conserving case.

Phenomenology of a leptonic goldstino and invisible Higgs boson decays
Non-linearly realized supersymmetry, combined with the Standard Model field content and SU(3) × SU(2) × U(1) gauge invariance, permits local dimension-six operators involving a goldstino, a lepton doublet and a Higgs doublet. These interactions preserve total lepton number if the left-handed goldstino transforms as an antilepton. We discuss the resulting phenomenology, in the simple limit where...
متن کاملFour-fermion interactions and sgoldstino masses in models with a superlight gravitino
We discuss the rôle of the effective interactions among four matter fermions in supersymmetric models with a very light gravitino. We show that, from a field-theoretical viewpoint, no model-independent bound on the gravitino mass can be derived from such interactions. Making use of a naturalness criterion, however, we are able to derive some interesting but not very stringent bounds, complement...

متن کاملOn the effective interactions of a light gravitino with matter fermions
If the gravitino is light and all the other supersymmetric particles are heavy, we can consider the effective theory describing the interactions of its goldstino components with ordinary matter. To discuss the model-dependence of these interactions, we take the simple case of spontaneously broken supersymmetry and only two chiral superfields, associated with the goldstino and a massless matter ...
متن کاملHigher Dimensional Operator Corrections to the Goldstino Goldberg-Treiman Vertices
The goldstino-matter interactions given by the Goldberg-Treiman relations can receive higher dimensional operator corrections of O(q2/M2), where M denotes the mass of the mediators through which SUSY breaking is transmitted. These corrections in the gauge mediated SUSY breaking models arise from loop diagrams, and an explicit calculation of such corrections is presented. It is emphasized that t...
