Description
We discuss the radiative corrections to charged and neutral current deep-inelastic neutrino--nucleon scattering in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). In particular, we study deviations, delta_R^nu(nu-bar), from the Standard Model prediction for the ratios of neutral- to charged-current cross sections, taking into account all sources for deviations in the MSSM, i.e. different contributions from virtual Higgs bosons and virtual superpartners. Our calculation includes the full q^2 dependence of the one-loop amplitudes, parton distribution functions and a NuTeV-inspired process kinematics. We present results of a scan of delta_R^nu(nu-bar) over the relevant MSSM parameter space.
