We calculate the CP-violating effects in the top quark semi-leptonic three body decays induced by the supersymmetric CP-odd phase of the top squark trilinear soft breaking term $\arg(A_t)$. The light top squark mass is assumed to be close…
Some models of leptogenesis involve a nearly-degenerate pair of heavy Majorana neutrinos $N_{1,2}$ whose masses can be small, $O({\rm GeV})$. There can be heavy-light neutrino mixing parametrized by $|B_{\ell N}|^2 = 10^{-5}$, which leads…
