Abstract:
We consider B(s)-->mu(+)mu(-) and the muon (g-2)(mu) in various supersymmetry-breaking mediation mechanisms. If the decay B(s)-->mu(+)mu(-) is observed at Tevatron Run II with a branching ratio larger than approximately 2 x 10(-8), the noscale supergravity (including the gaugino mediation), the gauge mediation scenario with a small number of messenger fields and low messenger scale, and a class of anomaly mediation scenarios will be excluded, even if they can accommodate a large muon (g-2)(mu). On the other hand, the minimal supergravity scenario and similar mechanisms derived from string models can accommodate this observation.

Qualitatively, any spin plus-half nucleus polarizes the spins of its electrons to the minus-half state. Consequently, the paired electron in the hydrogen–carbon bond must have a...

¹H NMR: Complex Splitting
Splitting diagrams or splitting tree diagrams are routinely used to depict such complex couplings. While drawing splitting diagrams, the splitting with the larger coupling constant is usually applied first.
