Anatomy and Phenomenology of the Lepton Flavor Universality in SUSY Theories

چکیده
High precision electroweak tests, such as deviations from the Standard Model expectations of the Lepton Flavor Universality breaking in K → lνl (with l = e or μ), represent a powerful tool to test the Standard Model and, hence, to constrain or obtain indirect hints of New Physics beyond it. We explore such a possibility within Supersymmetric theories. Interestingly enough, a process that in itself does not need lepton flavor violation to occur, i.e. the violation of μ−e non-universality in Kl2, proves to be quite effective in constraining not only relevant regions of SUSY models where lepton flavor is conserved, but even those where specific lepton flavor violating contributions arise. Indeed, a comparison with analogous bounds coming from τ lepton flavor violating decays shows the relevance of the measurement of RK to probe Lepton Flavor Violation in SUSY. We outline the role and the interplay of the direct New Physics searches at the LHC with the indirect searches performed by LFU tests.

Deviations from the Standard Model (SM) expectations of the Lepton Universality (LU) breaking represent a powerful tool to probe New Physics (NP) effects.

Finally, we also revi...

High precision electroweak tests, such as deviations from the Standard Model expectations of the Lepton Flavor Universality (LFU) breaking in K → lνl (with l = e or μ), represent a powerful tool to test the Standard Model and, hence, to constrain or obtain indirect hints of New Physics beyond it. We explore such a possibility within Supersymmetric theories. Interestingly enough, a process that ...
متن کاملLepton Universality Breaking vs Lepton Flavor Violation in Kaon Physics
Deviations from the Standard Model (SM) expectations of the Lepton Universality (LU) breaking represent a powerful tool to probe New Physics (NP) effects. Kaon physics is an obvious ground where to perform such tests, for instance in the well studied R K = B(K → eν)/B(K → μν). Supersymmetric (SUSY) extensions of the Standard Model can exhibit μ − e non-universal contributions. Their origin is t...
متن کاملLepton flavor violation in flavored gauge mediation
We study the anatomy and phenomenology of lepton flavor violation (LFV) in the context of flavored gauge mediation (FGM). Within FGM, the messenger sector couples directly to the MSSM matter fields with couplings controlled by the same dynamics that explains the hierarchies in the SM Yukawas. Although the pattern of flavor violation depends on the particular underlying flavor model, FGM provide...
متن کاملOn SUSY inspired minimal lepton number violation
A minimal lepton number violation (LNV) is proposed which could naturally appear in SUSY theories, if Yukawa and LNV couplings had a common origin. According to this idea properly implemented into MSSM with an additional abelian flavor symmetry the prototype LNV appears due to a mixing of leptons with superheavy Higgs doublet mediating Yukawa couplings. As a result, all significant physical man...
