Abstract

Within the R-parity violating minimal supersymmetric standard model, we use a hierarchical ansatz for the lepton-number violating trilinear Yukawa couplings by relating them to the corresponding Higgs-Yukawa couplings. This ansatz reduces the number of free parameters in the lepton-number violating sector from 36 to 6. Baryon-number violating terms are forbidden by imposing the discrete gauge symmetry baryon triality. We fit the lepton-number violating parameters to the most recent neutrino oscillation data, including the mixing angle θ13 found by Daya Bay. We find that we obtain phenomenologically viable neutrino masses and mixings only in the case of normal ordered neutrino masses and that the lepton-number violating sector is unambiguously determined by neutrino oscillation data. We discuss the resulting collider signals for the case of a neutralino as well as a scalar tau lightest supersymmetric particle. We use the ATLAS searches for multijet events and large transverse missing momentum in the 0, 1, and 2 lepton channel with 7 TeV center-of-mass energy in order to derive exclusion limits on the parameter space of this R-parity violating supersymmetric model.

  48. Because of the antisymmetry of λijk, λ333=0 and ℓ3 could only contribute to neutrino masses via λ233. This means that for a sizable contribution, ℓ3 must be several orders of magnitude larger than ℓ1 or ℓ2.

  57. In principle, any sparticle could here be the LSP in R̸p models since it is unstable, [20]. However, since the L-violating couplings in the hierarchical B3 cMSSM are small, the particle spectrum remains very similar to the Rp cMSSM and thus the lighter stau is always the lightest sfermion due to large left-right mixing.

  58. Only in a small part of the neutralino LSP region, where M1/2≲240  GeV, the lifetime of the LSP can become larger than cτ≳15  mm.
