The model class effectively determines the rate for charged lepton flavour violation, and in particular the branching ratio for $\\mu -> e \\gamma$, assuming that the supersymmetric GUT breaks directly to the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model (CMSSM). We find that in light of the combined constraints on the CMSSM parameters from direct searches and from the WMAP satellite observations, the resulting predicted rate for $\\mu -> e \\gamma$ in this model class can be within the current experimental bounds for low $\\tan \\beta$, but that the next generation of $\\mu -> e \\gamma$ experiments would effectively rule out this model class if LFV is not detected.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-01-18T23:53:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12.10.-g", "12.60.Jv", "13.35.Bv", "11.30.Pb" ], "keywords": [ "constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model", "model class effectively determines", "supersymmetric gut breaks", "asymmetric mass matrices", "charged lepton flavour violation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
