Abstract

We discuss the results of a global {chi}{sup 2} analysis of a simple SO(10) supersymmetric grand unified theory (SUSY GUT) with D{sub 3} family symmetry and low energy R parity. The model describes fermion mass matrices with 14 parameters and gives excellent fits to 20 observable masses and mixing angles in both quark and lepton sectors, giving six predictions. Bi-large neutrino mixing is obtained with hierarchical quark and lepton Yukawa matrices, thus avoiding the possibility of large lepton flavor violation. The model naturally predicts small 1-3 neutrino mixing, with sin{theta}{sub 13}{approx_equal}0.05-0.06. In this paper we evaluate the predictions for the lepton flavor violating processes, {mu}{yields}e{gamma}, {tau}{yields}{mu}{gamma} and {tau}{yields}e{gamma} and also the electric dipole moment of the electron (d{sub e}), the muon, and the tau, assuming universal squark and slepton masses (m{sub 16}) and a universal soft SUSY breaking A parameter (A{sub 0}) at the GUT scale. We find Br({mu}{yields}e{gamma}) is naturally below present bounds, but may be observable by MEG. Similarly, d{sub e} is below present bounds, but it is within the range of future experiments. We also give predictions for the light Higgs mass (using FeynHiggs). We find an upper bound given by m{sub h}{<=}127 GeV, with an estimatedmore »« less

Distinguishing between hierarchical and lopsided SO(10) models

Journal Article Rastogi, Parul - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

A comparative study of two predictive SO(10) models, namely, the BPW model (proposed by Babu, Pati and Wilczek) and the AB model (proposed by Albright and Barr) is done based on their predictions regarding CP and flavor violations. There is a significant difference in the structure of the fermion mass matrices in the two models (which are hierarchical for the BPW case and lopsided for the AB model) which gives rise to different CP and flavor violating effects. We include both standard model (SM) and supersymmetric (SUSY) contributions to these processes. Assuming flavor universality of SUSY-breaking parameters at a messengermore »« less

Fermion masses and neutrino mixing in an U(1){sub H} flavor symmetry model with hierarchical radiative generation for light charged fermion masses

Journal Article Hernandez-Galeana, Albino - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

I report the analysis performed on fermion masses and mixing, including neutrino mixing, within the context of a model with hierarchical radiative mass generation mechanism for light charged fermions, mediated by exotic scalar particles at one and two loops, respectively, meanwhile the neutrinos get Majorana mass terms at tree level through the Yukawa couplings with two SU(2){sub L} Higgs triplets. All the resulting mass matrices in the model, for the u, d, and e fermion charged sectors, the neutrinos and the exotic scalar particles, are diagonalized in exact analytical form. Quantitative analysis shows that this model is successful to accommodatemore »« less

Charged lepton decays l{sub i}{yields}l{sub j}+{gamma}, leptogenesis CP-violating parameters and Majorana phases

Journal Article Petcov, S T ; Shindou, T - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We analyze the dependence of the rates of the LFV charged-lepton decays {mu}{yields}e+{gamma}, {tau}{yields}e+{gamma}, {tau}{yields}{mu}+{gamma} (l{sub i}{yields}l{sub j}+{gamma}) and their ratios, predicted in the class of SUSY theories with see-saw mechanism of {nu}-mass generation and soft SUSY breaking with universal boundary conditions at the GUT scale, on the Majorana CP-violation phases in the PMNS neutrino mixing matrix and the ''leptogenesis'' CP-violating (CPV) parameters. The case of quasidegenerate in mass heavy Majorana neutrinos is considered. The analysis is performed for normal hierarchical (NH), inverted hierarchical (IH) and quasidegenerate (QD) light neutrino mass spectra. We show, in particular, that for NH andmore »« less

Lepton flavor violation in predictive supersymmetric GUT models

Journal Article Albright, Carl H ; Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, Batavia, Illinois 60510 ; Chen, M -C - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

There have been many theoretical models constructed that aim to explain the neutrino masses and mixing patterns. While many of the models will be eliminated once more accurate determinations of the mixing parameters, especially sin{sup 2}2{theta}{sub 13}, are obtained, charged lepton flavor violation experiments are able to differentiate even further among the models. In this paper, we investigate various rare lepton flavor violation processes, such as l{sub i}{yields}l{sub j}+{gamma} and {mu}-e conversion, in five predictive supersymmetric (SUSY) SO(10) models and their allowed soft-SUSY breaking parameter space in the constrained minimal SUSY standard model.

Low and high energy phenomenology of quark-lepton complementarity scenarios

Journal Article Hochmuth, Kathrin A ; Rodejohann, Werner - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We conduct a detailed analysis of the phenomenology of two predictive seesaw scenarios leading to quark-lepton complementarity. In both cases we discuss the neutrino mixing observables and their correlations, neutrinoless double beta decay and lepton flavor violating decays such as {mu}{yields}e{gamma}. We also comment on leptogenesis. The first scenario is disfavored on the level of one to two standard deviations, in particular, due to its prediction for |U{sub e3}|. There can be resonant leptogenesis with quasidegenerate heavy and light neutrinos, which would imply sizable cancellations in neutrinoless double beta decay. The decays {mu}{yields}e{gamma} and {tau}{yields}{mu}{gamma} are typically observable unless themore »« less
