Search for nucleon decay via modes favored by supersymmetric grand unification models in Super-Kamiokande-I
read the original abstract
We report the results for nucleon decay searches via modes favored by supersymmetric grand unified models in Super-Kamiokande. Using 1489 days of full Super-Kamiokande-I data, we searched for $p \to \bar{\nu} K^+$, $n \to \bar{\nu} K^0$, $p \to \mu^+ K^0$ and $p \to e^+ K^0$ modes. We found no evidence for nucleon decay in any of these modes. We set lower limits of partial nucleon lifetime 2.3$\times10^{33}$, 1.3$\times10^{32}$, 1.3$\times10^{33}$ and 1.0$\times10^{33}$ years at 90% confidence level for $p \to \bar{\nu} K^+$, $n \to \bar{\nu} K^0$, $p \to \mu^+ K^0$ and $p \to e^+ K^0$ modes, respectively. These results give a strong constraint on supersymmetric grand unification models.

Correlation Between Proton Decay Channels and the Axion Mass in an Extended SU(5) GUT
Extended SU(5) GUT with 45 Higgs and DFSZ axion uses one-loop unification to correlate proton decay modes with axion mass and couplings.
