Soft SUSY breaking contributions to proton decay
arXiv:hep-ph/0607303 · doi:10.1088/1126-6708/2006/10/030
Abstract
We show that in supersymmetric grand unified theories new effective D=4 and D=5 operators for proton decay are induced by soft SUSY-breaking terms, when heavy GUT gauge bosons are integrated out, in addition to the standard D=6 ones. As a result, the proton lifetime in gauge mediated channels can be enhanced or even suppressed depending on the size of the heavy Higgses soft terms.
