Basis independent parametrisations of R parity violation in the soft SUSY breaking sector

Abstract

The magnitude of R-parity violating coupling constants depends on which direction in the space of weak doublets with hypercharge = -2 corresponds to the Higgs. To address this ``basis dependence'', one can construct combinations of coupling constants that are invariant under these basis transformations, and which parametrise how much R parity violation is present in the Lagrangian (analogous to Jarlskog invariants for CP violation). This has previously been done for the Higgs vev and the R parity violating couplings constants in the superpotential. In this letter, I build invariants that include soft SUSY breaking interactions, and briefly discuss their relation to invariants involving the Higgs vev. This completes the construction of invariants based on the MSSM with baryon parity.
