Description

The possibility to constrain the MSSM parameter space using the rare K decays K --> pi nu nubar and KL --> pi0 l+ l- will be illustrated. Particular emphasis will be set on the information one can get from the pattern of deviation the four modes could exhibit with respect to the SM. Specific scenarios considered are, within the MSSM, large and moderate tan(beta), as well as the minimal flavor violation hypothesis. In more general susy models, these modes could also allow for studies of R-parity violating effects. Based on: -- Isidori,Mescia,Paradisi,Smith,Trine, JHEP 0608 (2006) 064 -- Mescia,Smith,Trine, JHEP 0608 (2006) 088.
