A reappraisal of spontaneous R-parity violation
arXiv:1006.0631 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.82.055013
Abstract
In this short reappraisal of spontaneous lepton number violation in a supersymmetric scenario implemented through singlet sneutrino vacuum expectation value (VEV), we contribute with two new things in the context where the lepton number symmetry is global: (i) provide explicit expressions of -parity violating couplings in terms of the neutrino Yukawa couplings and the singlet sneutrino VEV, and (ii) estimate the limit on this VEV using the current knowledge of the light neutrino mass and the astrophysical constraint on the Majoron-electron coupling. Besides, we put updated constraints on the VEV and Yukawa coupling of the singlet superfield when lepton number is gauged.
arXiv comment9 pages, including 4 figures drawn using axodraw.sty. One new section on gauged lepton number symmetry has been added, with other minor modifications
