09:00 Gauge and Yukawa mediated SUSY breaking in the triplet seesaw

I discuss a novel and very predictive supersymmetric GUT scenario where the exchange of SU(2)_L triplet generates both neutrino masses and soft SUSY breaking terms. The phenomenological viability and experimental signatures are discussed.

Speaker: Anna Rossi (Padova)

09:30 LFV and theta_13 in SUSY Seesaw

We discuss the impact of neutrino masses and mixings on LFV processes within the context of the SUSY Seesaw, where the CMSSM is extended by 3 right-handed (s)neutrinos. We focus on the sensitivity of tau and muon LFV decays on the most relevant parameters. Compatibility with neutrino data, LFV and EDM bounds, and requiring successful baryogensis via thermal leptogenesis leads to strong constraints on the Seesaw parameters, for the studied SUSY benchmark points. We particularly emphasise the interesting relation between theta_13 and LFV muon decays.

12:00 Tests of Time Reversal Violation (TRV) in atomic and nuclear physics - The TRImP facility nearing its completion

This talk will cover the main approaches taken in atomic and nuclear physics to measure TRV. In particular, the search for an electric dipole moment of atoms. At the Kernfysisch Versneller Instituut an experimental facility is being created to produce radioactive isotopes that have favorable properties for TRV studies. The outline of this facility will be presented.

09:30 LFV from SUSY-GUTs

We analyse the complementarity between Lepton Flavour Violation (LFV) and LHC experiments in probing the Supersymmetric (SUSY) Grand Unified Theories (GUT) when neutrinos got a mass via the see--saw mechanism. Our analysis is performed in an SO(10) framework, where at least one neutrino Yukawa coupling is necessarily as large as the top Yukawa coupling. Our study thoroughly takes into account the whole RG running, including the GUT and the right handed neutrino mass scales, as well as the running of the observable neutrino spectrum. We find that the upcoming (MEG, SuperKEKB) and future (PRISM/PRIME, Super Flavour factory) LFV experiments will be able to test such SUSY framework for SUSY masses to be explored at the LHC and, in some cases, even beyond the LHC sensitivity reach.
