Muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment in supersymmetric theories

چکیده
We study the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment in supersymmetric theories. The impact of the recent Brookhaven E821 experimental measurement on both modelindependent and model-dependent supersymmetric parameter spaces is discussed in detail. We find that values of tanβ as low as 3 can be obtained while remaining within the E821 one-sigma bound. This requires a light smuon; however, we show that, somewhat surprisingly, no model-independent bound can be placed on the mass of the lightest chargino for any tanβ ≥ 3. We also show that the maximum contributions to the anomalous magnetic moment are insensitive to CP-violating phases. We provide analyses of the supersymmetric contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment in dilaton-dominated supergravity models and gauge-mediated supersymmetrybreaking models. Finally, we discuss how other phenomena, such as B(b → sγ), relic abundance of the lightest superpartner, and the Higgs mass may be correlated with the anomalous magnetic moment, but do not significantly impact the viability of a supersymmetric explanation, or the mass limits obtainable on smuons and charginos.

Supersymmetric Relations Among Electromagnetic Dipole Operators
Supersymmetric contributions to all leptonic electromagnetic dipole operators have essentially identical diagramatic structure. With approximate slepton universality this allows the muon anomalous magnetic moment to be related to the electron electric dipole moment in terms of supersymmetric phases, and to radiative flavor changing lepton decays in terms of small violations of slepton universal...
متن کاملMuon anomalous magnetic dipole moment in the minimal supersymmetric standard model.
The muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment (MDM) is calculated in the framework of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). In this paper, we discuss how the muon MDM depends on the parameters in MSSM in detail. We show that the contribution of the superparticle-loop becomes significant especially when tan β is large. Numerically, it becomes O(10−8 − 10−9) in a wide parameter space, whi...
متن کاملSupersymmetry and the anomalous anomalous magnetic moment of the muon.
The recently reported measurement of the muon's anomalous magnetic moment differs from the standard model prediction by 2.6 sigma. We examine the implications of this discrepancy for supersymmetry. Deviations of the reported magnitude are generic in supersymmetric theories. Based on the new result, we derive model-independent upper bounds on the masses of observable supersymmetric particles. We...

The possibility of radiatively generated fermion masses arising from chiral flavor violation in soft supersymmetry-breaking terms is explored. Vacuum stability constraints are considered in various classes of models, and allow in principle all of the first and second generation quarks and leptons and the b-quark to obtain masses radiatively. Radiatively induced Higgs–fermion couplings have non-...

Effects of supersymmetric particles may appear in various low energy experiments through loop diagrams. We discuss various flavor changing neutral current processes, the muon anomalous magnetic moment and lepton flavor violation in the context of the supergravity model. In particular the B0–B 0 mixing and the muon anomalous magnetic moment are revisited taking into account the recent Higgs boso...
