Planck Scale Physics and the Testability of SU ( 5 ) Supergravity GUT
نویسندگان
چکیده
GUT scale threshold corrections in minimal SU(5) supergravity grand unification are discussed. It is shown that predictions may be made despite uncertainties associated with the high energy scale. A bound relating the strong coupling constant to the mass scales associated with proton decay and supersymmetry is derived, and a sensitive probe of the underlying theory is outlined. In particular, low energy measurements can in principle determine the presence of Planck scale (1/M Pl) terms.

Minimal supersymmetric SU(5) theory and proton decay: where do we stand?
We review the situation regarding d = 5 proton decay in the minimal supersymmetric SU(5) GUT. The minimal theory is defined as the theory with the minimal matter and Higgs content all the way up to the Planck scale; of course, this allows for the possible presence of Planck induced physics. It can be said that either higher dimensional operators must be present or/and some fine-tuning of O(1%) ...
متن کاملSUSY Phenomenology a
Supersymmetry (SUSY) is a symmetry between fermions and bosons and its theoretical development started from the formulation of SUSY invariant Lagrangian in four dimensional field theory in early ’70s. Subsequently, SUSY gauge theory, supergravity and string theory with space-time supersymmetry (supersrting) were formulated in ’70s. Phenomenological application of SUSY theory has developed since...
متن کاملNew Jarlskog Determinant from Physics above the GUT Scale
We study the Planck scale effects on Jarlskog determiant. Quantum gravitational (Planck scale) effects lead to an effective SU(2) × U(1) invariant dimension-5 Lagrangian involving neutrino and Higgs fields, which give rise to additional terms in neutrino mass matrix on electroweak symmetry breaking. We assume that gravitational interaction is flavor blind and compute the Jarlskog determiant due...
متن کاملFlavour Violation in SUSY SU ( 5 ) GUT at Large tan β
We study flavour violation in the minimal SUSY SU(5) GUT assuming all the third generation Yukawa couplings to be due to the renormalizable physics above GUT scale. At large tan β, as suggested by Yukawa unification in SU(5), sizable flavour violation in the left (right) slepton (down squark) sector is induced due to renormalization effects of down type Yukawa couplings between GUT and Planck s...
متن کاملThe Reach of Fermilab Tevatron Upgrades for Su(5) Supergravity Models with Non-universal Gaugino Masses
We explore the reach of luminosity upgrades of the Fermilab Tevatron collider for SU(5) supergravity models in which non-universal GUT-scale gaugino masses arise via a vacuum expectation value for the auxiliary component of a superfield that transforms as a 24, 75 or 200 dimensional representation of SU(5). This results in a different pattern of sparticle masses and mixing angles from what is e...
