In the absence of a tree-level muon Yukawa coupling the lightest smuon mass is predicted to be in the range between 750 GeV and 2700 GeV at 2 sigma, if the bino mass M_1 is below 1 TeV. Therefore, a detection of a smuon (in conjunction with a sub-TeV bino) at the LHC would directly imply a non-zero muon Yukawa coupling in the MSSM superpotential. Inclusion of slepton flavor mixing could in principle lower the mass of one smuon-like slepton below 750 GeV. However, the experimental bounds on radiative lepton decays instead strengthen the lower mass bound, with larger effects for smaller M_1, We also extend the analysis to the electron case and find that a light selectron close to the current experimental search limit may prove the MSSM electron Yukawa coupling to be non-zero.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2011-03-21T22:21:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12.60.Jv", "14.80.Ly", "13.40.Em" ], "keywords": [ "anomalous magnetic moment", "lhc era", "muon yukawa coupling", "radiative lepton decays instead strengthen" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review D", "year": 2011, "month": "Mar", "volume": 83, "number": 5, "pages": "055009" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 873609, "adsabs": "2011PhRvD..83e5009C" } } }
