Small Flavor Conserving CP Violation in Superstring Models
نویسنده
چکیده
It is well known that supersymmetric models allow new sources for CP violation that arise from soft supersymmetry breaking terms. If unsuppressed, these new CP-violating phases would give too large a neutron electric dipole moment. We discuss a mechanism for suppressing SUSY phases in stringinspired supergravity models in which supersymmetry is assumed to be broken by the auxiliary components of the dilaton and moduli superfields.

Lepton-flavor mixing and K → πνν̄ decays
The impact of possible sources of lepton-flavor mixing onK → πνν̄ decays is analysed. At the one-loop level lepton-flavor mixing originated from non-diagonal lepton mass matrices cannot generate a CP-conserving KL → πνν̄ amplitude. The rates of these modes are sensitive to leptonic flavor violation when there are at least two different leptonic mixing matrices. New interactions that violate both ...
متن کاملK~ + n“vfi Beyond the Standard Model
We analyze the decay ~{L -+ ~“v~ in a model independent way. If lepton flavor is conserved the final state is (to a good approximation) purely CP even. In that case this decay mode goes mainly through CP violating interference between mixing and decay. Consequently, a theoretically clean relation between the measured rate and electroweak parameters holds in any given model. Specifically, I’(lf~...
متن کاملSome constraints on neutral heavy leptons from flavor-conserving decays of the Z boson.
Small neutrino masses can arise in some grand unified models or superstring theories. We consider a model with an enhanced fermion sector containing Dirac neutral heavy leptons. The dependence on the mass and mixing parameters of these new fermions is investigated for several measurable quantities. We study the flavor-conserving leptonic decays of the Z boson and universal-ity breaking in these...

متن کاملQuark Mass Matrices in Superstring Models
Four simple but realistic patterns of quark mass matrices are derived from orbifold models of superstring theory in the absence of gauge symmetries. Two of them correspond to the Ramond-Roberts-Ross types, which have five texture zeros in up and down quark sectors. The other two, with four texture zeros, preserve the structural parallelism between up and down sectors. The phenomenological conse...
