Abstract

We study the inclusive semileptonic rare decay bsl+lb \to s l^+ l^- in minimal supergravity model (mSUGRA). If tanβ\beta is large, down-type quark mass matrices and their Yukawa couplings cannot be diagonalized at the same basis. This induces the flavor violating neutral Higgs boson couplings. These couplings contribute significantly to decay bsmu+mub \to s mu^+ mu^- and bstau+taub \to s tau^+ tau^-, but negligible to bse+eb \to s e^+ e^- decay because of its negligible mem_e mass. The ratio RB(bsmu+mu)/B(bse+e)R \equiv B(b \to s mu^+ mu^-)/ B(b \to s e^+ e^-) can be very different from its corresponding value in the Standard Model. We find that part of parameter space can accommodate a large R value, and that maximum R value can be larger than 2. We also present our results in bstau+taub \to s tau^+ tau^- decay channel. Although it can be not detected now, it is potentially a new channel for the future observation of new physics.
