Description

An earlier survey of viable neutrino mass and mixng models revealed a broad spectrum of predicted valies for sin^2 (theta_13) ranging fom the present upper bound of 0.04 accessible to the next round of reactor neutrino experiments down to values less than 0.001 requiring a neutrino factory for observation. Here we single out models with similar theta _13 predictions ad show that the viability of each type can be further differentiated according to their predictions for the l_j to l_i lepton flavor-violating branching ratos for various of the CMSSM parameters. Thi study supplements previous results obtained on the theta_13 - lepon flavor violation connection which involked restrictions on the class of SUSY GUT seesaw models considered.
