Abstract

We reanalyze the constraints imposed on lepton-number violating interactions by radiative contributions to neutrino masses at the one- and two-loop level in supersymmetric models without R-parity. The interactions considered are the superpotential operators and , and the soft terms and . It is shown how the constraints on the couplings and coming from the one-loop analysis can be evaded. In such a case, the two-loop contributions to neutrino masses become important. The combined one- and two-loop analysis yields constraints on the couplings and that are rather difficult to escape. The two-loop analysis yields also new constraints on and , which are not bounded at the one-loop level. More freedom remains for couplings , , and , , when and are first- or second-generation indices.
