Solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations from bilinear R-parity violation

Abstract

We discuss general predictions for neutrino masses and mixing angles from R parity violation in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. If the soft supersymmetry breaking terms are flavor blind at short distance, then the leptonic analogue of the CKM matrix depends on only two real parameters, which are completely determined by fits to solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations. Either the small angle MSW, large angle MSW, or ``just-so'' solutions to the solar neutrino problem are allowed, although the large angle MSW solution requires substantial fine-tuning. The latter two cases require significant νμ→νe oscillations of atmospheric neutrinos. We present a model which could explain bilinear R parity violation as a consequence of spontaneous symmetry violation by a dynamical supersymmetry breaking sector. The decay length and branching ratios of the LSP are estimated.
