neutrino Dirac mass matrix has been realized from the low energy neutrino
oscillations data based on type-I seesaw mechanism. A concrete model based on
$A_4$ flavor symmetry has been considered to generate such a neutrino Dirac
mass matrix and imposes a relation between the two scaling factors. In this
model, the right-handed Heavy Majorana neutrino masses are quasi-degenerate at
TeV mass scales. Extensive numerical analysis studies have been carried out to
constrain the parameter space of the model from the low energy neutrino
oscillations data. It has been found that the parameter space of the Dirac mass
matrix elements lies near or below the MeV region and the scaling factor
$|\kappa_1|$ has to be less than 10. Furthermore, we have examined the
possibility for simultaneous explanation of both neutrino oscillations data and
the observed baryon number asymmetry in the Universe. Such an analysis gives
further restrictions on the parameter space of the model, thereby explaining
the correct neutrino data as well as the baryon number asymmetry via a resonant
leptogenesis scenario. Finally, we show that the allowed space for the
effective Majorana neutrino mass $m_{ee}$ is also constrained in order to
account for the observed baryon asymmetry.

The simultaneous presence of these two types of particles can lead to novel
mechanisms for generating the correct dark matter relic abundance, which in
turn can reflect themselves into new exotic signatures at colliders. We study
the viability of such sectors for various Hidden Valley models and map the
valid parameter space to possible collider signatures. Mediators studied
include various scalar bifundamentals and a heavy $Z'$. It is shown that in
general bounds from direct and indirect detection can easily be avoided. In
most of the allowed parameter space, the relic density is determined by stable
mesons annihilating to unstable ones which in turn decay quickly to Standard
Model particles. Dark mesons that decay mainly to heavier Standard Model
fermions allow for more valid parameter space, though dark mesons are still
allowed to decay exclusively to some of the lighter fermions. Possible exotic

of the quark and lepton mass hierarchy arises without significant fine tuning.
If right handed neutrinos exist, a possible gravitationally induced cubic
holomorphic contribution to the Kahler potential can exist scaled by the 11D
Planck mass. These terms give rise to Dirac neutrino masses at the electroweak

for both the atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations. The model also gives
rise to possible non-universal soft breaking A parameters in the u and d second
and third generation quark sector (A_{2,3}^{(u,d)}) which naturally can account
for the possible (2.4\sigma) break down of the Standard Model predictions in
the recent B-factory data for the B->\phi K_s decays.

] | We study top-quark decays in models with light sgoldstinos. The off-diagonal entries in the squark mass matrices can lead to FCNC top two-body decays into sgoldstinos and u(c) quarks. We compute the rates for these decays and discuss the corresponding signatures that could manifest the presence of sgoldstinos in top decays at LHC. We expect that a supersymmetry breaking scale $\sqrt{F}$ up to a scale of order 10 TeV could be probed through this process, for a maximal squark mixing with the third generation. Justified by our preliminary analysis, a thorough study of the corresponding signal versus background and systematics in the LHC environment would be most welcome, in order to accurately assess the potential of this promising process in determining $\sqrt{F}$. |

Lorentz-covariant and gauge-invariant. It and its different forms have been
confirmed in numerous experiments to high degree of accuracy. We have recently
derived the spin motion equation within the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin
weak-field approximation which adds a pseudoscalar correction to the BMT
equation. The upgraded equation is again self-consistent, Lorentz-covariant,
gauge-invariant, and free of unwanted artifacts. The pseudoscalar correction is
expected to be small, and might become important in hypersensitive experiments,
like the measurements of electric dipole moments which are themselves related
to pseudoscalar quantities. It also becomes possible to explain why EDMs are so
difficult to measure, since this correction term might lead to the effective
screening of electric dipole moments. Within the same model, it is possible to
explain the discrepancy between experimental and theoretical values of muon
magnetic anomaly under assumption that the pseudoscalar correction is the
dominant source of this discrepancy.

superconductivity as well as superfluidity is classified into two phases;
confined and deconfined phases of vortices. We establish that the criterion of
the confinement is color neutrality of Aharonov-Bohm (AB) phases: vortices
exhibiting color non-singlet AB phases are confined by the so-called AB defects
to form color-singlet bound states. In the deconfined phase, the most stable
vortices are non-Abelian Alice strings, which are superfluid vortices with
fractional circulation and non-Abelian color magnetic fluxes therein,
exhibiting color non-singlet AB phases. On the other hand, in the confined
phase, these non-Abelian vortices are confined to either a baryonic or mesonic
bound state in which constituent vortices are connected by AB defects. The
baryonic bound state consists of three non-Abelian Alice strings with different
color magnetic fluxes with the total flux canceled out connected by a domain
wall junction, while the mesonic bound state consists of two non-Abelian Alice
strings with the same color magnetic fluxes connected by a single domain wall.
Interestingly, the latter contains a color magnetic flux in its core, but this
can exist because of color neutrality of its AB phase.

not be very different in weakly coupled and strongly coupled plasmas, but we
find that P(k_\perp) must be parametrically larger in a weakly coupled plasma
than in a strongly coupled plasma at large enough k_\perp. This means that by
looking for rare (but not exponentially rare) large-angle deflections of the
jet resulting from a parton produced initially back-to-back with a hard photon,
experimentalists can find the weakly coupled short-distance quark and gluon

strange pentaquarks $P_{\bar c s}$ in a favor of the hadronic molecule picture
are investigated from the one-boson-exchange model. Similar to the hidden-charm
pentaquarks, three molecular bound states, one with spin parity $J^P=1/2^-$
below the $\bar D\Sigma$ threshold and another two with $J^P=\{1/2^-,3/2^-\}$
below the $\bar D^*\Sigma$ threshold, are predicted at $3-3.2$ GeV mass region.
The mass ordering of the later two states can be interchanged by different
reductions of the $\delta(r)$ term. Furthermore, resonances associated with
these three bound states are examined by considering $ D_s^-N-\bar
D\Lambda-\bar D \Sigma-\bar D^*\Lambda-\bar D^*\Sigma$ coupled-channel
dynamics, and decay widths of them are predicted. Our study indicates that the
$ D_s^- p$ invariant mass spectrum in the $\bar B_s^0\to \bar n D_s^- p$ decay
is an appropriate place to detect the $P_{\bar c s}$ pentaquarks.

Similar to the hidden-charm pentaquarks, three molecular bound states, one with spin parity $J^P=1/2^-$ below the $\bar D\Sigma$ threshold and another two with $J^P=\{1/2^-,3/2^-\}$ below the $\bar D^*\Sigma$ threshold, are predicted at $3-3.2$ GeV mass region. The mass ordering of the later two states can be interchanged by different reductions of the $\delta(r)$ term. Furthermore, resonances associated with these three bound states are examined by considering $ D_s^-N-\bar D\Lambda-\bar D \Sigma-\bar D^*\Lambda-\bar D^*\Sigma$ coupled-channel dynamics, and decay widths of them are predicted. Our study indicates that the $ D_s^- p$ invariant mass spectrum in the $\bar B_s^0\to \bar n D_s^- p$ decay is an appropriate place to detect the $P_{\bar c s}$ pentaquarks. |

theorem. This theorem allows the vector bosons $W^\pm$ and $Z$ to be replaced
by the associated scalar Goldstone bosons $w^\pm$, $z$ which appear in the
symmetry breaking sector of the Standard Model in the limit of vanishing gauge
couplings. In the present paper, we extend the equivalence theorem
systematically to include the Yukawa interactions between the fermions and the
Higgs and Goldstone bosons of the Standard Model. The corresponding Lagrangian
${\cal L}_{EQT}$ is given, and is formally renormalized to all orders. The
renormalization conditions are formulated both to make connection with physical
observables and to satisfy the requirements underlying the equivalence theorem.
As an application of this framework, we calculate the dominant radiative
corrections to fermionic Higgs decays at one loop including the virtual effects
of a heavy top quark. We apply the result to the decays $H\rightarrow t\bar{t}$

including fermions are quite accurate numerically for Higgs-boson masses $M_H>

We calculate the total and differential cross sections exactly of the processes, $e^+e^-\rightarrow \gamma^*/Z^*\rightarrow \Omega_{ccc}\bar{c}\bar{c}\bar{c}$ and $e^+e^-\rightarrow \gamma^*/Z^*\rightarrow \Omega_{bbb}\bar{b}\bar{b}\bar{b}$, in the leading order at the $e^+e^-$ colliders with different energies. The results show that it is hard to observe them at the $e^+e^-$ collider directly. |

relaxation time approximation (RTA). In NBTE, we argue that the system far from

non-extensive statistics after subsequent evolution, where $q$ denotes the
degree of non-extensivity. We observe that $\eta/s$ and $\zeta/s$ decrease
rapidly with temperature ($T$) for various $q$-values. As $q$ increases, the
magnitudes of $\eta/s$ and $\zeta/s$ decrease with $T$. We also show the upper
mass cutoff dependence of these ratios for a particular $q$ and find that they
decrease with the increase in mass cutoff of hadrons. Further, we present the
first estimation of isothermal compressibility ($\kappa_T$) using non-extensive
Tsallis statistics at finite baryon chemical potential ($\mu_B$). It is
observed that, $\kappa_T$ changes significantly with the degree of
non-extensivity. We also study the squared speed of sound ($c_{s}^{2}$) as a
function of temperature at finite baryon chemical potential for various $q$ and

cutoff on the behaviour of $c_{s}^{2}$.

up to 15% in the high-transverse-momentum region of distributions. To support
the results of the complete one-loop calculation, we have in addition evaluated
the electroweak corrections in two different pole approximations, one requiring
two on-shell top quarks and one featuring two on-shell W bosons. While the
former deviates by up to 10% from the full calculation for certain

heavy-light systems. One of the relations is
$M=m_1+m_2+C'+\beta_x\sqrt{x+c_{0x}}$, $(x=l,\,n_r)$. Another reads
$M=m_1+C'+\sqrt{\beta_x^2(x+c_{0x})+\frac{4}{3}\sqrt{{\pi}{\beta_x}}m^{3/2}_2(x+c_{0x})^{1/4}}$.
$M$ is the bound state mass. $m_1$ and $m_2$ are the masses of the heavy
constituent and the light constituent, respectively. $l$ is the orbital angular
momentum and $n_r$ is the radial quantum number. $\beta_x$ and $c_{0x}$ are
fitted. $m_1$, $m_2$ and $C'$ are input parameters. These two formulas consider
both of the masses of heavy constituent and light constituent. We find that the
heavy-light diquarks, the heavy-light mesons, the heavy-light baryons and the
heavy-light tetraquarks satisfy these two formulas. When applying the first
formula, the heavy-light systems satisfy the universal description irrespective
of both of the masses of the light constituents and the heavy constituent. When
using the second relation, the heavy-light systems satisfy the universal
description irrespective of the mass of the heavy constituent. The fitted
slopes differ distinctively for the heavy-light mesons, baryons and
tetraquarks, respectively. When employing the first relation, the average
values of $c_{fn_r}$ ($c_{fl}$) are $1.026$, $0.794$ and $0.553$ ($1.026$,
$0.749$ and $0.579$) for the heavy-light mesons, the heavy-light baryons and

R--symmetric N=2 supersymmetric model with extended gauge and Higgs sectors.
The annihilation of Dirac gauginos to leptons requires no chirality flip in the
final states so that it is not suppressed as in the Majorana case. This implies
that it can be sizable enough to explain the positron excess observed by the
PAMELA experiment with moderate or no boost factors. When squark masses are
heavy, the annihilation of Dirac gauginos to hadrons is controlled by their
Higgsino fraction and is driven by the $hZ$ and $W^+W^-$ final states.
Moreover, at variance with the Majorana case, Dirac gauginos with a
non-vanishing higgsino fraction can also have a vector coupling with the $Z$
gauge boson leading to a sizable spin--independent scattering cross section off
nuclei. Saturating the current antiproton limit, we show that Dirac gauginos
can leave a signal in direct detection experiments at the level of the
sensitivity of dark matter searches at present and in the near future.

superCDMS-like direct detection experiment, given optimistic assumptions about
the detector set-up and WIMP properties. We consider WIMPs with an interaction
cross-section of \sigma_{\rm p} = 10^{-7} {\rm pb} (just below current
exclusion limits) and assume, initially, that the local WIMP velocity
distribution and density are known and that the experiment has negligible
background. For light WIMPs (mass significantly less than that of the target
nuclei) small variations in the WIMP mass lead to significant changes in the
energy spectrum. Conversely for heavy WIMPs the energy spectrum depends only
weakly on the WIMP mass. Consequently it will be far easier to measure the WIMP
mass if it is light than if it is heavy. With exposures of {\cal E}= 3 \times
10^{3}, 3 \times 10^{4} and 3 \times 10^{5} {\rm kg day} (corresponding,
roughly, to the three proposed phases of SuperCDMS) it will be possible, given
the optimistic assumptions mentioned above, to measure the mass of a light WIMP
with an accuracy of roughly 25%, 15% and 2.5 % respectively. These numbers
increase with increasing WIMP mass, and for heavy WIMPs, m_{\chi} > {\cal
O}(500 {\rm GeV}), even with a large exposure it will only be possible to place
a lower limit on the mass. Finally we discuss the validity of the various
assumptions made, and the consequences if these assumptions are not valid. In

an underlying fundamental Lagrangian, through a series of well-defined
transformations in the functional integral of the cut-off theory. This is done
by introducing collective fields in a gauge-symmetric manner. Through
appropriate gauge fixings of this symmetry one can remove long-distance degrees
of freedom from the underlying theory, replacing them by the collective fields.
Applying this technique to QCD, we set out to extract the long-distance
dynamics in the pseudoscalar flavour singlet sector through a gauging (and
subsequent gauge fixing) of the $U(1)_A$ flavour symmetry which is broken by
the anomaly. By this series of exact transformations of a cut-off generating
functional for QCD, we arrive at a theory describing the long-distance physics
of a pseudoscalar flavour singlet meson coupled to the residual quark-gluon
degrees of freedom. As examples of how known low-energy physics can be
reproduced in this formulation, we rederive the Witten-Veneziano relation
between the $\eta'$ mass and the topological susceptibility, now for any value
of the number of colours $N_c$.

Through appropriate gauge fixings of this symmetry one can remove long-distance degrees of freedom from the underlying theory, replacing them by the collective fields. Applying this technique to QCD, we set out to extract the long-distance dynamics in the pseudoscalar flavour singlet sector through a gauging (and subsequent gauge fixing) of the $U(1)_A$ flavour symmetry which is broken by the anomaly. By this series of exact transformations of a cut-off generating functional for QCD, we arrive at a theory describing the long-distance physics of a pseudoscalar flavour singlet meson coupled to the residual quark-gluon degrees of freedom. As examples of how known low-energy physics can be reproduced in this formulation, we rederive the Witten-Veneziano relation between the $\eta'$ mass and the topological susceptibility, now for any value of the number of colours $N_c$. |

reformulated more precisely, new subsection 2.5 | null | null | UASLP-IF-04-001 | hep-ph | null | We ask the question whether neutrino physics with momentum space Majorana
spinors, the eigenvectors of the particle--antiparticle conjugation operator,
C=i\gamma_2 K (with K standing for complex conjugation), is different but

great detail. We show that four dimensional, (4d), Majorana spinors are
unsuited for the construction of a local quantum field because C invariance
does not allow for a covariant propagation in four spinor dimensions, a conduct
due to \gamma_2\gamma_\mu= -\gamma_\mu * \gamma_2. The way out of this dilemma

to covariant propagators. We construct such a symmetry in observing that the
parity operator, \gamma_0, ``ladders'' between (4d) rest-frame Majorana

types of (8d) spaces-- one with a symmetric- and an other with an
anti-symmetric off diagonal metric and calculate traces of single beta-- and
neutrinoless double beta (0\nu\beta \beta) decays there. We find physics with
(8d) Majorana spinors in the former space to be equivalent to physics with
Dirac spinors in four dimensions. In the latter space we make the rare
observation that in effect of cancellations triggered by the anti-symmetric off
diagonal (8d) metric, the neutrino mass drops from the single beta decay trace
but reappears in 0\nu \beta\beta, without the neutrino being massless in its
free equation-- a curious and in principle experimentally testable signature
for a non-trivial impact of Majorana framework.

gauge, a hard scale proportional to the high parton density arises in QCD. In
an effective theory of QCD at small $x$, this scale is of order $\alpha_S\mu$,
where $\mu$ is simply related to the gluon density at higher rapidities. The ab
initio real time evolution of small $x$ modes in a nuclear collision can be
described consistently in the classical effective theory and various features
of interest can be studied non-perturbatively. In this paper, we discuss
results from a real time lattice computation of the production of gluon jets at
very high energies. At very large transverse momenta, $k_t\geq \mu$, our
results match the predictions from pQCD based mini-jet calculations. Novel
non-perturbative behaviour of the small $x$ modes is seen at smaller momenta
$k_t\sim \alpha_S\mu$. Gauge invariant energy-energy correlators are used to
estimate energy distributions evolving in proper time.

In an effective theory of QCD at small $x$, this scale is of order $\alpha_S\mu$, where $\mu$ is simply related to the gluon density at higher rapidities. The ab initio real time evolution of small $x$ modes in a nuclear collision can be described consistently in the classical effective theory and various features of interest can be studied non-perturbatively. In this paper, we discuss results from a real time lattice computation of the production of gluon jets at very high energies. At very large transverse momenta, $k_t\geq \mu$, our results match the predictions from pQCD based mini-jet calculations. Novel non-perturbative behaviour of the small $x$ modes is seen at smaller momenta $k_t\sim \alpha_S\mu$. Gauge invariant energy-energy correlators are used to estimate energy distributions evolving in proper time. |
