New constraints on R-parity violation from proton stability

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-31 v2

Abstract

We derive stringent upper bounds on all the (λijkμl)(\lambda''_{ijk} \mu_l)-type combinations from the consideration of proton stability, where λijk\lambda''_{ijk} are baryon-number-violating trilinear couplings and μl\mu_l are lepton-number-violating bilinear mass parameters in a R-parity-violating supersymmetric theory.
