Neutrino Mass from R-parity Violation in Split Supersymmetry

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-11-10 v2

Abstract

We investigate how the observed neutrino data can be accommodated by R-parity violation in Split Supersymmetry. The atmospheric neutrino mass and mixing are explained by the bilinear parameters ξi\xi_i inducing the neutrino-neutralino mixing as in the usual low-energy supersymmetry. Among various one-loop corrections, only the quark-squark exchanging diagrams involving the order-one trilinear couplings λi23,i32\lambda'_{i23,i32} can generate the solar neutrino mass and mixing if the scalar mass mSm_S is not larger than 10910^9 GeV. This scheme requires an unpleasant hierarchical structure of the couplings, e.g., λi23,i321\lambda_{i23,i32}\sim 1, λi33104\lambda'_{i33} \lesssim 10^{-4} and ξi106\xi_i \lesssim 10^{-6}. On the other hand, the model has a distinct collider signature of the lightest neutralino which can decay only to the final states, liW()l_i W^{(*)} and νZ()\nu Z^{(*)}, arising from the bilinear mixing. Thus, the measurement of the ratio; Γ(eW()):Γ(μW()):Γ(τW())\Gamma(e W^{(*)}) : \Gamma(\mu W^{(*)}) : \Gamma(\tau W^{(*)}) would provide a clean probe of the small reactor and large atmospheric neutrino mixing angles as far as the neutralino mass is larger than 62 GeV.
