Radion Flavor Violation in Warped Extra Dimension


Abstract in English

We analyze the flavor violation in warped extra dimension due to radion mediation. We show that Delta S=2 and Delta B=2 flavor violating processes impose stringent constraints on radion mass, m_phi and the scale Lambda_phi. In particular, for Lambda_phi ~ O(1) TeV, B_d^0-bar{B}^0_d implies that m_phi ~ 65 GeV. We also study radion contributions to lepton flavor violating processes: tau -> (e,mu) phi, tau -> emu^+mu^- and B -> l_i l_j. We show that BR(B_s -> mu^+ mu^-) can be of order 10^{-8}, which is reachable at the LHCb. The radion search at LHC, through the flavor violation decays into tau mu or top-charm quarks, is also considered.
