The Fate of R-Parity

Abstract

The possible origin of the R-parity violating interactions in the minimal supersymmetric standard model and its connection to the radiative symmetry breaking mechanism (RSBM) is investigated. In the context of the simplest model where the implementation of the RSBM is possible, we find that in the majority of the parameter space R-parity is spontaneously broken at the low-scale. These results hint at the possibility that R-parity violating processes will be observed at the Large Hadron Collider, if Supersymmetry is realized in nature
