Resummation of tan β-enhanced supersymmetric loop corrections beyond the decoupling limit

Abstract

We study the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with Minimal Flavour Violation for the case of a large parameter tanbeta and arbitrary values of the supersymmetric mass parameters. We derive several resummation formulae for tanbeta-enhanced loop corrections, which were previously only known in the limit of supersymmetric masses far above the electroweak scale. Studying first the renormalisation-scheme dependence of the resummation formula for the bottom Yukawa coupling, we clarify the use of the sbottom mixing angle in the supersymmetric loop factor Delta_b. As a new feature, we find tan-beta-enhanced loop-induced flavour-changing neutral current (FCNC) couplings of gluinos and neutralinos which in turn give rise to new effects in the renormalisation of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix and in FCNC processes of B mesons. For the chromomagnetic Wilson coefficient C_8, these gluino-squark loops can be of the same size as the known chargino-squark contribution. We discuss the phenomenological consequences for the mixing-induced CP asymmetry in B_d -> phi K_S. We further quote formulae for B_s -> mu^+ mu^- and B_s-B_s-bar mixing valid beyond the decoupling limit and find a new contribution affecting the phase of the B_s-B_s-bar mixing amplitude. Our resummed tan-beta-enhanced effects are cast into Feynman rules permitting an easy implementation in automatic calculations.
