Fermion masses, neutrino oscillations, and proton decay in the light of superKamiokande
Open accessAbstract
Abstract Within the framework of unified gauge models, interactions responsible for neutrino masses can also provide mechanisms for nucleon instability. We discuss their implications concretely in the light of recent results on neutrino oscillation from the SuperKamiokande collaboration. We construct a predictive SO (10)-based framework that describes the masses and mixing of all quarks and leptons. An overconstrained global fit is obtained, that makes five successful predictions for quarks and charged leptons. The same description provides agreement with the SuperK results on atmospheric neutrinos and typically supports a small-angle MSW mechanism. We find that current limits on nucleon stability put significant stress on the framework. Further, a distinctive feature of the SO (10) model developed here is the likely prominence of the μ + K 0 mode in addition to the ν K + mode of proton decay. Thus improved searches in these channels for proton decay will either turn up events, or force us outside this circle of ideas.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
