the lhc experiments have discovered a standard model ( sm)-like higgs boson with @xmath11 gev @xcite . however , it is not clear whether this newly discovered particle is a pure sm higgs boson , or whether it is part of an extension of the sm , which might also include multiple or composite higgs - like states . prec...
such light , and states can be almost mass degenerate , and their decays are then difficult to observe at colliders . we perform a parameter fit in the mssm , from which we infer that the higgsino mass parameter can be measured to a precision of about gev . for the electroweak gaugino mass parameters , , which are cho...
in supersymmetric extensions of the standard model , higgsino - like charginos and neutralinos are preferred to have masses of the order of the electroweak scale by naturalness arguments . such light , and states can be almost mass degenerate , and their decays are then difficult to observe at colliders . in addition t...

warped extra dimensional models have become very popular because they are able to address simultaneously two intriguing issues within the standard model ( sm ) : the hierarchy problem and the mass / flavor problem . they were originally introduced to treat the first issue @xcite in a setup where the sm fields were all ...
in the context of warped extra - dimensional models with all fields propagating in the bulk , we address the phenomenology of a bulk scalar higgs boson , and calculate its production cross section at the lhc as well as its tree - level effects on mediating flavor changing neutral currents .

in this work we have presented the results for the predictions of higgs phenomenology in a toy - model rs setup in which the higgs field is allowed to propagate in the bulk and with a single 5d fermion field . our results can be extended to three families to include full flavor effects , but the generic predictions tha...
first , we compute our predictions analytically by considering all the degrees of freedom emerging from the dimensional reduction ( the infinite tower of kaluza klein modes ( kk ) ) . in the second approach it is necessary to introduce a type of higher derivative operator which essentially encodes the effects of integr...

although the standard single - degenerate ( sd ) chandrasekhar - mass scenario ( see @xcite for a review ) is capable of explaining most of the observed diversity of type ia supernovae ( sne ia ) @xcite via the delayed - detonation @xcite model , it suffers from severe problems in explaining the observed rate of sne ...
this shell detonation drives a shock front into the carbon - oxygen white dwarf that triggers a secondary detonation in the core . recently , however , it was proposed that detonations might be possible for much less massive helium shells than previously assumed . moreover , it was shown that even detonations of these ...

we show that this discrepancy is mainly due to the composition of the burning products of the helium shell of the models which contain significant amounts of titanium and chromium . using a toy model , we also show that the burning products of the helium shell depend crucially on its initial composition .
