Left-right gauge symmetry breaking by radiative corrections in supergravity

  • 1. North Carolina Univ., Chapel Hill (USA). Dept. of Physics and Astronomy

Description

A supersymmetric SU(2)sub(L) x SU(2)sub(R) x U(1)sub(B-L) gauge theory coupled to N = 1 supergravity is investigated. The scale of left-right gauge symmetry breaking is determined as Msub(R) proportional Msub(P) esup(-1/α) by radiative corrections through the logarithmic evolution of soft supersymmetry breakings. SU(2)sub(L) x SU(2)sub(R) x U(1)sub(B-L) may be embedded in SO(10) grand unification. Cosmological implications intrinsic to the present model are also discussed, which may give a constraint Msub(R) approx.= 109-12 GeV. (orig.)
