We make a numerical study of gauge and Yukawa unification in supersymmetric grand unified models examine the quantitative implications fermion mass Ans\"atze at scale. Integrating renormalization group equations with ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{1}({M}_{Z})$ ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{2}({M}_{Z})$ as inputs, we find ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{3}({M}_{Z})\ensuremath{\simeq}0.111(0.122)$ for ${M}_{\mathrm{SUSY}}={m}_{t}$ ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{3}({M}_{Z})\ensuremath{\simeq}0.106(0.116)$...

We examine the spectrum of supersymmetric particles predicted by grand unified theoretical (GUT) models where electroweak symmetry breaking is accomplished radiatively. evolve soft supersymmetry parameters according to renormalization group equations (RGE). The minimization Higgs potential conveniently described means tadpole diagrams. present complete one-loop expressions for these conditions, including contributions from matter and gauge sectors. concentrate on low $\tan \beta$ fixed point...

We develop a mass formula for finite lumps of strange quark matter near flavor equilibrium. Our Fermi-gas model includes surface tension and Coulomb energy but not quantum-chromodynamic radiative corrections. Assuming is stable in bulk, we investigate the radioactive decays strangelets (clumps with baryon number A\ensuremath{\lesssim}${10}^{7}$). derive conditions governing instability all decay modes. The regions number, charge, hypercharge which various are allowed illustrated graphically,...

Quarks whose left- and right-handed chiral components are both singlets with respect to the SU(2) weak-isospin gauge group, offer interesting physics possibilities beyond Standard Model (SM) already studied in many contexts. We here address some further aspects. first collect update constraints from present data on their masses mixings conventional quarks. discuss possible effects $b\to s\gamma$ $Z\to b\bar b$ decays give fresh illustrations of CP asymmetries $B^0$ differing dramatically SM...

The observation that the $b \rightarrow s\gamma $ decay rate is close to Standard Model value implies a large mass for charged-Higgs boson in Minimum Supersymmetric Model, nearly closes $t b H^+$ channel. For $m_t = 150$ GeV, parameter region $m_A \ltap 130$ GeV excluded; this largely pre-empts LEP II searches and also partially excludes would be inaccessible MSSM Higgs both at SSC/LHC.

Supersymmetric field theories can be constructed that violate Lorentz and CPT symmetry. We illustrate this with some simple examples related to the original Wess-Zumino model.

Radiative corrections can produce substantial changes in the masses, production cross sections, and decay branching fractions of Higgs bosons supersymmetric models, which greatly modify their experimental detectability. We study variations expected event rates at $\mathrm{pp}$ supercolliders caused by radiative effects from full one-loop effective potential minimal model, for $\mathrm{CP}$-even $h$ $H$. note that masses $h$, $H$, $\mathrm{CP}$-odd boson $A$ simultaneously fall intermediate...

The mass sum rules involving Higgs bosons that arise in supersymmetric extensions to the standard model are renormalized. general procedure for calculating radiative corrections these relations is presented. from loop contributions of quarks, leptons, and their partners relation ${M}_{h}^{2}+{M}_{H}^{2}={M}_{A}^{2}+{M}_{Z}^{2}$ minimal extension derived. results indicate large may heavy matter fields.

The introduction of an interaction for dark energy to the standard cosmology offers a potential solution cosmic coincidence problem. We examine conditions on density that must be satisfied this scenario realized. Under some general we find stable attractor evolution Universe in future. Holographic conjectures offer specific examples models with desired properties.

Using data collected with the D0 detector at Fermilab Tevatron Collider, corresponding to $5.3\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{fb}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ of integrated luminosity, we search for violation Lorentz invariance by examining $t\overline{t}$ production cross section in $\mathrm{\text{lepton}}+\mathrm{\text{jets}}$ final states. We quantify this using standard-model extension framework, which predicts a dependence on sidereal time as orientation changes rotation Earth. Within measure...

At a fundamental level the notion of particle (quantum) comes from quantum field theory. From this point view we estimate corrections to free wave function due minimum-length deformed mechanics first order in deformation parameter. Namely, matrix element $⟨0|\mathit{\ensuremath{\Phi}}(t,\mathbf{x})|\mathbf{p}⟩$ that standard case sets $\ensuremath{\propto}\mathrm{exp}(i[\mathbf{p}\mathbf{x}\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\epsilon}(\mathbf{p})t])$ there appear three kinds when operator is...

The prospects are explored for testing Lorentz and $CPT$ symmetry in the top-quark sector. We present relevant Lagrange density, discuss physical observables, describe signals to be sought experiments. For top-antitop pair production via quark or gluon fusion with subsequent semileptonic hadronic decays, we obtain matrix element presence of violation using narrow-width approximation. issue sector is also addressed. demonstrate that single-top decay well suited a search violation, elements...
