is described in terms of the supersymmetry mass scale (\ie, the chargino mass
$m_{\chi^\pm_1}$), $\tan\beta$, and the top-quark mass. We first determine the
combined effect on the parameter space of all presently available direct and
indirect experimental constraints, including the LEP lower bounds on sparticle

of the muon, the high-precision electroweak parameters $\epsilon_1,\epsilon_b$

(neutrino telescopes). For the still-allowed points in
$(m_{\chi^\pm_1},\tan\beta)$ parameter space, we re-evaluate the experimental
situation at the Tevatron, LEPII, and HERA. In the 1994 run, the Tevatron could
probe chargino masses as high as 100 GeV. At LEPII the parameter space could be
explored with probes of different resolutions: Higgs boson searches, selectron
searches, and chargino searches. Moreover, for $m_t\lsim150\GeV$, these
Higgs-boson searches could explore all of the allowed parameter space with
$\sqrt{s}\lsim210\GeV$.

current experimental data for the electroweak rho parameter and those for the
Higgs boson couplings can be simultaneously explained. In this scenario, the
two Higgs doublet model is supposed to be a low energy effective theory up to a
high energy scale $\Lambda$, above which a fundamental theory should appear. It
is assumed that the Higgs potential respects a global symmetry at $\Lambda$
(the twisted custodial symmetry), which is to be given as a consequence of the
global symmetry structure of the fundamental theory above $\Lambda$. By the
analysis using one-loop renormalization group equations, the above experimental
data can be explained in a natural way even when the masses of the extra Higgs
bosons are near the electroweak scale. We also discuss the predictions on the
mass spectrum of the additional Higgs bosons and also those on coupling
constants of the standard-model-like Higgs boson, which make it possible to
test this scenario at current and future collider experiments.

applying various optimized selection criteria, we obtain a significance of

obtain a more realistic result.

] | We present the prospects for the discovery of a Standard Model Higgs boson decaying to $b\bar{b}$ pair through the Vector Boson Fusion mechanism in association with a central photon at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The photon provides a clean trigger and several advantages despite the fact that the cross section decreases by approximately a factor of $\alpha_{em}$. After applying various optimized selection criteria, we obtain a significance of $\sim$1.9 using ALPGEN interfaced with PYTHIA. The expected $b$-jet efficiency and fake rates and other detector acceptance cuts are taken into account to obtain a more realistic result. |

all the fermion masses and mixing angles. This study is carried out for both
supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric models and with minimal ($10+\bar{126}$)
and non-minimal ($10+\bar{126}+120$) Higgs content. Extensive numerical fits to
fermion masses and mixing are carried out in each case assuming dominance of
type-II or type-I seesaw mechanism. Required scale of the B-L breaking is
identified in each case. In supersymmetric case, several sets of data at the
GUT scale with or without inclusion of finite supersymmetric corrections are
used. All models studied provide quite good fits if the type-I seesaw mechanism
dominates while many fail if the type-II seesaw dominates. This can be traced
to the absence of the $b$-$\tau$ unification at the GUT scale in these models.
The minimal non-supersymmetric model with type-I seesaw dominance gives
excellent fits. In the presence of a $45_H$ and an intermediate scale, the
model can also account for the gauge coupling unification making it potentially
interesting model for the complete unification. Structure of the Yukawa
coupling matrices obtained numerically in this specific case is shown to follow
from a very simple U(1) symmetry and a Froggatt-Nielsen singlet.

branching ratio of rare radiative $B$ meson decay i.e., $B\to X_{s}\gamma$.
However, the constraints arising from the branching ratio of
$B_{s}\to\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ decay in $m_{H^{\pm}}-\tan\beta$ plane give
$m_{H^{\pm}} >$ 80 GeV for the value of $\tan\beta\sim 2$, that is in agreement
with large electron-positron collider (LEP) data. Furthermore, we also
investigate the bounds on the $CP$-even $m_{H}$ and $CP$-odd $m_{A^{0}}$ Higgs
boson not only from above mentioned physical observables, but also from the
zero crossing of the forward-backward asymmetry of $B\to

SUSY loop-threshold effects enable a good fit to all third family masses of the
charged Standard Model (SM) fermions. We find that fitting the third family
masses together with the mass of the SM-like Higgs particle, the scenario
predicts the masses of the superpartner particles and of the extra Higgs states
of the MSSM: while the sparticles are predicted to be comparatively heavy
(above the present LHC bound but within reach of future colliders), the
spectrum has the characteristic feature that the lightest new particles are the
extra MSSM Higgses. We show that this effect is rather robust with respect to
many deformations of the GUT boundary conditions, but turns out to be sensitive
to the exactness of top-bottom Yukawa unification. Nevertheless, with moderate
deviations of a few percent from exact top-bottom Yukawa unification (stemming
e.g.\ from GUT-threshold corrections or higher-dimensional operators), the
scenario still predicts extra MSSM Higgs particles with masses not much above
$1.5\,\mathrm{TeV}$, which could be tested e.g.\ by future LHC searches for
ditau decays $H^0/A^{0}\to\tau\tau$. Finding the extra MSSM Higges before the

in particle physics: the hierarchy problem, dark matter, matter-antimatter
asymmetry, neutrino masses and the strong CP problem. The only additional field
content in our construction with respect to standard relaxion models is an
up-type vector-like fermion pair and three right-handed neutrinos charged under
the relaxion shift symmetry. The observed dark matter abundance is generated
automatically by oscillations of the relaxion field that begin once it is
misaligned from its original stopping point after reheating. The
matter-antimatter asymmetry arises from spontaneous baryogenesis induced by the
CPT violation due to the rolling of the relaxion after reheating. The CPT
violation is communicated to the baryons and leptons via an operator,
$\partial_\mu \phi J^\mu$, where $J^\mu$ consists of right-handed neutrino
currents arising naturally from a simple neutrino mass model. Finally, the
strong CP problem is solved via the Nelson-Barr mechanism, i.e. by imposing CP
as a symmetry of the Lagrangian that is broken only spontaneously by the
relaxion. The CP breaking is such that although an ${\cal O}(1)$ strong CKM
phase is generated, the induced strong CP phase is much smaller, i.e., within
experimental bounds.

Nucleon and Pion | The manuscript is a Tex file (9 pages) with nine PS figures | null | null | null | hep-ph | null | We calculate the partonic structure of constituent quark in the
Next-to-Leading Order for the first time. The structure of any hadron can be

generate the structure function of proton and pion in NLO. It is shown that
while the constituent quark structure is generated purely perturbatively and
accounts to most part of the hadronic structure, there is a few percent
contributions coming from the nonperturbative sector in the hadronic structure.
This contribution plays the key role in explaining the SU(2) symmetry breaking
of the nucleon sea and the observed violation of Gottfried sum rule. These
effects are calculated. Excellent agreement with data in a wide range of
$x=[10^{-6}, 1]$ and $Q^{2}=[0.5, 5000]$ $GeV^{2}$ is reached for proton

order with respect to the QCD coupling constant. Combined with the
soft-gluon-pole (SGP) contribution, this completes the corresponding twist-3

transformed into the SFP contribution, we find that the SFP partonic hard cross

each scattering channel, as in the case of the inclusive light-hadron

functions from the forthcoming experiments at several facilities such as RHIC

We discuss that the chiral density wave state is also absent in the limit, if we assume the existence of the non-perturbative magnetic screening effect as indicated by recent lattice study. We argue that ferromagnetism can become a candidate for the ground state if quarks are massive. |

transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions fails in
hadro-production of nearly back-to-back hadrons with high transverse momentum.
The essential problem is that gauge invariant transverse momentum dependent
parton distribution functions cannot be defined with process-independent Wilson
line operators, thus implying a breakdown of universality. This has led
naturally to proposals that a correct approach is to instead use a type of
"generalized" transverse momentum dependent factorization in which the basic
factorized structure is assumed to remain valid, but with transverse momentum
dependent parton distribution functions that contain non-standard, process
dependent Wilson line structures. In other words, to recover a factorization
formula, it has become common to assume that it is sufficient to simply modify
the Wilson lines in the parton correlation functions for each separate hadron.
In this paper, we will illustrate by direct counter-example that this is not
possible in a non-Abelian gauge theory. Since a proof of generalized transverse
momentum dependent factorization should apply generally to any hard
hadro-production process, a single counter-example suffices to show that a
general proof does not exist. Therefore, to make the counter-argument clear and
explicit, we illustrate with a specific calculation for a double spin asymmetry
in a spectator model with a non-Abelian gauge field. The observed breakdown of
generalized transverse momentum dependent factorization challenges the notion
that the role of parton transverse momentum in such processes can be described
using separate correlation functions for each external hadron.

particle, there are many possibilities of the interactions with the Standard
Model (SM) particles to achieve the relic density of DM. In this paper, we
consider one simple DM model where the DM candidate is a complex scalar and
interacts with the SM particles via exchange of the Higgs particle and an extra
quark, named bottom partner. The extra quark carries the same quantum number as
the right-handed down-type quarks and has Yukawa couplings with the DM
candidate and the right-handed down-type quarks. The Yukawa interactions are
not only relevant to the thermal relic density of the DM, but also contribute
to the flavor physics, such as the $\Delta F=2$ processes. In addition, the
flavor alignment of the Yukawa couplings is related to the decay modes of the
extra quark. Then, we can find the explicit correlations among the physical
observables in DM physics, flavor physics and the signals at the LHC. Based on
the numerical analyses of the thermal relic density, the direct detection of
the DM and the current LHC bounds using the latest results, we survey our
predictions for the $\Delta F=2$ processes. We investigate the perturbative

(PQCD) and the "PQCD+Lattice" factorization approach, respectively. We first
evaluated all relevant form factors $F_i(q^2)$ in the low $q^2$ region using
the PQCD approach, and we also took the available lattice QCD results at the
high-$q^2$ region as additional input to improve the extrapolation of
$F_i(q^2)$ from the low-$q^2$ region to the endpoint $q^2_{max}$. We then
calculated the branching ratios and many other physical observables:
$A_{FB}^{l}$, $F_L^{\phi}$, $S_{3,4,7}$, $A_{5,6,8,9}$ and the clean angular

B_s \to \phi \mu^+ \mu^-)$ are about $7\times 10^{-7}$, which agree well with
the LHCb measured values and the QCD sum rule prediction within still large
errors; (b) we defined and calculated the ratios of the branching ratios
$R_\phi^{e\mu}$ and $R_\phi^{\mu\tau}$; (c) the PQCD and "PQCD+Lattice"
predictions of the longitudinal polarization $F_L$, the CP averaged angular
coefficients $S_{3,4,7} $ and the CP asymmetry angular coefficients
$A_{5,6,8,9}$, agree with the LHCb measurements in all considered bins within
the still large experimental errors; and (d) for those currently still unknown
observables $R_\phi^{e\mu}, R_\phi^{\mu\tau}, A_{FB}^{l}, P_{1,2,3}$ and
$P^{\prime}_{4,5,6,8}$, we suggest LHCb and Belle-II Collaboration to measure
them in their experiments.

We first evaluated all relevant form factors $F_i(q^2)$ in the low $q^2$ region using the PQCD approach, and we also took the available lattice QCD results at the high-$q^2$ region as additional input to improve the extrapolation of $F_i(q^2)$ from the low-$q^2$ region to the endpoint $q^2_{max}$. We then calculated the branching ratios and many other physical observables: $A_{FB}^{l}$, $F_L^{\phi}$, $S_{3,4,7}$, $A_{5,6,8,9}$ and the clean angular observables $P_{1,2,3} $ and $P^{\prime}_{4,5,6,8}$.From our studies, we find the following points: (a) the PQCD and "PQCD+Lattice" predictions of ${\cal B}( B_s \to \phi \mu^+ \mu^-)$ are about $7\times 10^{-7}$, which agree well with the LHCb measured values and the QCD sum rule prediction within still large errors; (b) we defined and calculated the ratios of the branching ratios $R_\phi^{e\mu}$ and $R_\phi^{\mu\tau}$; (c) the PQCD and "PQCD+Lattice" predictions of the longitudinal polarization $F_L$, the CP averaged angular coefficients $S_{3,4,7} $ and the CP asymmetry angular coefficients $A_{5,6,8,9}$, agree with the LHCb measurements in all considered bins within the still large experimental errors; and (d) for those currently still unknown observables $R_\phi^{e\mu}, R_\phi^{\mu\tau}, A_{FB}^{l}, P_{1,2,3}$ and $P^{\prime}_{4,5,6,8}$, we suggest LHCb and Belle-II Collaboration to measure them in their experiments. |

one which does lock them. The former is a kind of interaction that has already
been discussed in mutlicomponent superfluids. The latter is perhaps more
interesting, because seems to be related to an instability. Although the
pressure of the system does not show any instability, we find that for
sufficiently strong locking, the spectrum of one Bogolyubov mode becomes
tachyonic. This unstable branch seems to indicate a transition to an

the up- and down- quarks and antiquarks in addition to the $c {\bar c}$ pair,
which component in itself has a substantial part with the isospin I=1.
Furthermore such four-quark part of the wave function should also affect the
properties of the $\psi'$ charmonium resonance through the $\psi(3770) - \psi'$
mixing previously considered in the literature. It is argued that an admixture
of extra light quark pairs can explain a possible discrepancy between the
theoretical expectations and the recent data on the non-$D {\bar D}$ decay
width of the $\psi(3770)$ and the ratio of the yield of charged and neutral $D$
meson pairs in its decays, as well as on the extra rate of the $\psi'$ direct
decay into light hadrons and the rate of the decay $\psi' \to \pi^0 J/\psi$. It
is further argued that the suggested four-quark component of the wave function
of the $\psi(3770)$ should give rise to a measurable rate of the decays
$\psi(3770) \to \eta J/\psi$ and $\psi(3770) \to \pi^0 J/\psi$.

investigated in the minimal type-(I+II) seesaw model with one SU(2)_L Higgs
triplet \Delta and one heavy Majorana neutrino N_1 at the TeV scale. We find
that the branching ratios {\cal B}(H^+ \to l^+_\alpha{\bar \nu}) (for \alpha =
e, \mu, \tau) depend not only on the mass and mixing parameters of three light
neutrinos \nu_i (for i = 1, 2, 3) but also on those of N_1. Assuming the mass
of N_1 to lie in the range of 200 GeV to 1 TeV, we figure out the generous
interference bands for the contributions of \nu_i and N_1 to {\cal B}(H^+ \to
l^+_\alpha{\bar \nu}). We illustrate some salient features of such interference
effects by considering three typical mass patterns of \nu_i, and show that the
relevant Majorana CP-violating phases can affect the magnitudes of {\cal B}(H^+
\to l^+_\alpha{\bar \nu}) in this parameter region.

pseudoscalar quarkonia, eta_c(nS) and eta_b(nS) in an approach based on
Heavy-Quark Spin Symmetry (HQSS). To what concerns the 1S state eta_c, our
parameter-free computation agrees with experiments, as well as most of other
theoretical works. On the other hand, our computation for the 2S-state looks 2S
like a confirmation that there may exist an anomaly related to the decay of
eta_c(2S), especially in the light of the new preliminary result of the Belle
collaboration. We also point out that the essentially model-independent ratio
of eta_b two-photon width to the Upsilon leptonic width and the eta_b
two-photon width could be used to extract the strong coupling constant alpha_s.

an enhancement of the cross-section for the central scale choice by roughly 50%
with respect to the leading order result. The theoretical uncertainty estimated
by variation of the renormalization and factorization scales is strongly
reduced by the inclusion of next-to-leading order corrections.
