Description
Any grand unified model is plagued with particles capable of inducing
proton decay. Identifying all potential scalar proton decay mediators
stemming from different irreducible representations of SO(10), we
will show their coupling with the Standard Model fermions, tree-level
contributions of the effective strength of $B-L$ conserving($d=6$),
and $B-L$ violating($d=7$) operators to proton decay width expression.
Through the computed branching ratio of various decay modes of proton
in a realistic SO(10) model based on $10_H$ and $\overline{126_H}$, we
will enumerate distinct features of scalar mediated proton decay
including bound on the mass of the proton decay mediators.
