What rare K decays can tell about the MSSM
Christopher Smith
The supersymmetric contributions to the theoretically clean K+ --> pi+ nu nu bar, KL --> pi0 nu nu bar, KL --> pi0 e+ e- and KL --> pi0 mu+ mu- decays are briefly reviewed. Particu…
Minimal Flavor Violation, Seesaw, and R-parity
Emanuel Nikolidakis, Christopher Smith
The Minimal Flavor Violation hypothesis (MFV) is extended to the R-parity violating MSSM, supplemented with a simple seesaw mechanism. The requirement of MFV is shown to suppress l…
Recent progress on supersymmetric effects in rare K decays
Christopher Smith
The dominant MSSM effects in the rare K decays, K+ --> pi+ nu nu bar, KL --> pi0 nu nu bar, KL --> pi0 e+ e- and KL --> pi0 mu+ mu-, are discussed both within and without the minim…
Improved estimates of rare K decay matrix-elements from Kl3 decays
Federico Mescia, Christopher Smith
The estimation of rare K decay matrix-elements from Kl3 experimental data is extended beyond LO in Chiral Perturbation Theory. Isospin-breaking effects at NLO (and partially NNLO)…
Rare K decays in the Standard Model
Christopher Smith
The very clean theoretical predictions for the rare decays K --> pi nu nu_bar and KL --> pi0 l+ l- are reviewed, and their various theoretical inputs summarized. The less favorable…
