Ruiz-Altaba, M

The constraints are analyzed that proton decay experiments and cosmologically sound unification models impose on each other. An intermediate scale of around 10/sup 10/ GeV arises from considerations on baryogenesis, inflation and supersymmetry breaking. An upper bound to the gravitino mass of about 50 TeV follows from current proton lifetime limits.
