Abstract

We discuss an extra source of CP and flavor violations in supersymmetric SU(5) grand unified model with the right-handed neutrinos. In such a model, the right-handed down-type squarks dR interact with the right-handed neutrinos above the GUT scale, and the renormalization group effect can generate sizable off-diagonal elements in the mass matrix of dR. Because of new Yukawa phases which exist in the SU(5) model, these off-diagonal elements have, in general, large CP violating phases. The renormalization group induced off-diagonal elements affect the K and B decays. In particular, in this model, supersymmetric contribution to the εK parameter can be as large as the currently measured experimental value, and hence the effect might be seen as an anomaly in the on-going test of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa triangle.
