A single source for all flavor violation
نویسنده
چکیده
In a model proposed in 2012, all flavor mixing has a single source and is governed by a single “master matrix.” This model was shown to give several predictions for quark and lepton masses and mixing angles and for mixing angles within SU(5) multiplets that are observable in proton decay. Here it is shown that the same master matrix controls the flavor-changing processes mediated by a singlet scalar that exists in the model, giving predictions for τ → μγ, τ → eγ, and μ → eγ.

Can flavor-independent supersymmetric soft phases Be the source of all CP violation?
Recently it has been demonstrated that large phases in softly broken supersymmetric (SUSY) theories are consistent with electric dipole moment constraints, and are motivated in some (type I) string models. Here we consider whether large flavor-independent soft phases may be the dominant (or only) source of all CP violation. In this framework, epsilon and epsilon(')/epsilon can be accommodated, ...
متن کاملMinimal Flavor Violation , Seesaw , and R - parity
The Minimal Flavor Violation hypothesis (MFV) is extended to the R-parity violating MSSM, supplemented with a simple seesaw mechanism. The requirement of MFV is shown to suppress lepton and baryon-number violating couplings sufficiently to pass all experimental bounds, in particular those for proton decay, and is thus a viable alternative to R-parity. The phenomenological consequences for FCNC,...
متن کاملLepton Flavor Violation in Intersecting D - brane Models
We investigate lepton flavor violation in the context of intersecting D-brane models. We point out that these models have a source to generate flavor violation in the trilinear scalar couplings while the geometry of the construction leads to degenerate soft scalar masses for different generations (as in the minimal supergravity model) at the string scale. The trilinear scalar couplings are not ...

Lepton flavor violation can be induced in supersymmetry by the mixing of two or more of the leptonic scalar partners, l̃ → l̃, where l̃, l̃ = ẽ, μ̃, τ̃ . Krashnikov and ArkaniHamed et al. pointed out that this effect may be observable at the Next Linear Collider, through slepton pair production with subsequent lepton flavor violating decays. If the slepton mixing involves all three generations, CP vi...
