Enhancing lepton flavour violation in the supersymmetric inverse seesaw beyond the dipole contribution

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

In minimal supersymmetric models the ZZ-penguin usually provides sub-dominant contributions to charged lepton flavour violating observables. In this study, we consider the supersymmetric inverse seesaw in which the non-minimal particle content allows for dominant contributions of the ZZ-penguin to several lepton flavour violating observables. In particular, and due to the low-scale (TeV) seesaw, the penguin contribution to, for instance, $\Br(μ\to 3e)$ and μ−eμ-e conversion in nuclei, allows to render some of these observables within future sensitivity reach. Moreover, we show that in this framework, the ZZ-penguin exhibits the same non-decoupling behaviour which had previously been identified in flavour violating Higgs decays in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model.
