Flavour in Soft Leptogenesis
Abstract
Successful Soft Leptogenesis (SL) requires a relatively low mass scale for the SU(2) singlet neutrinos of GeV. However, conventional SL (unflavoured) requires an unnaturally small soft supersymmetry(SUSY)-breaking bilinear coupling for successful leptogenesis. On the other hand, in this regime, the interactions mediated by , (and even ) charged lepton Yukawa interactions are in equilibrium, making the lepton number asymmetries and the washouts flavour dependent. Hence, it is crucial to take into account the flavour effects. Considering a general soft SUSY-breaking trilinear couplings, it is possible to enhance the efficiency up to compared to the unflavoured case. With the enhanced efficiency, we can raise the up to TeV scale for successful leptogenesis. Taking into account the low energy constraints, we verify that the fast lepton flavour violation processes induced by the soft SUSY-breaking slepton masses would not destroy the enhancement.
