Abstract

Recently, the standard model prediction of ϵ/ϵ\epsilon'/\epsilon was improved, and a discrepancy from the experimental results was reported at the 2.9σ2.9\sigma level. We study the chargino contributions to ZZ penguin especially with the vacuum stability constraint. The vacuum decay rate is investigated, and it is shown that the discrepancy can be explained if superparticles are lighter than 4-6 TeV. Correlations with B(KLπ0ννˉ)\mathcal{B}(K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu) and other experimental constraints are also discussed.
