    New Lepton Family Symmetry and Neutrino Tribimaximal Mixing

    Get PDF
    The newly proposed finite symmetry Sigma(81) is applied to the problem of neutrino tribimaximal mixing. The result is more satisfactory than those of previous models based on A_4 in that the use of auxiliary symmetries (or mechanisms) may be avoided. Deviations from the tribimaximal pattern are expected, but because of its basic structure, only tan^2 (theta_12) may differ significantly from 0.5 (say 0.45) with sin^2 (2 theta_23) remaining very close to one, and theta_13 very nearly zero.Comment: 8 pages, no figur

    Many-server queues with customer abandonment: numerical analysis of their diffusion models

    Full text link
    We use multidimensional diffusion processes to approximate the dynamics of a queue served by many parallel servers. The queue is served in the first-in-first-out (FIFO) order and the customers waiting in queue may abandon the system without service. Two diffusion models are proposed in this paper. They differ in how the patience time distribution is built into them. The first diffusion model uses the patience time density at zero and the second one uses the entire patience time distribution. To analyze these diffusion models, we develop a numerical algorithm for computing the stationary distribution of such a diffusion process. A crucial part of the algorithm is to choose an appropriate reference density. Using a conjecture on the tail behavior of a limit queue length process, we propose a systematic approach to constructing a reference density. With the proposed reference density, the algorithm is shown to converge quickly in numerical experiments. These experiments also show that the diffusion models are good approximations for many-server queues, sometimes for queues with as few as twenty servers

    Flavor changing Z' couplings at the LHC

    Full text link
    Models with a non-universal Z' exhibit in general flavor changing neutral currents (FCNC) at tree-level. When the Z' couplings favor the third generation, flavor changing transitions of the form Z'tc and Z'tu could be large enough to be observable at the LHC. In this paper we explore this possibility using the associated production of a single top-quark with the Z' and find that integrated luminosities of a few hundred fb−1^{-1} are necessary to probe the interesting region of parameter space.Comment: 12 LaTeX Pages, 10 EPS Figure

    CP Violation in Fermion Pair Decays of Neutral Boson Particles

    Full text link
    We study CP violation in fermion pair decays of neutral boson particles with spin 0 or 1. We study a new asymmetry to measure CP violation in η,KL→μ+μ−\eta, K_L \rightarrow \mu^+\mu^- decays and discuss the possibility of measuring it experimentally. For the spin-1 particles case, we study CP violation in the decays of J/ψJ/\psi to SU(3)SU(3) octet baryon pairs. We show that these decays can be used to put stringent constraints on the electric dipole moments of Λ\Lambda, Σ\Sigma and Ξ\Xi.Comment: 14p, OZ-93/22, UM-93/89, OITS 51

    Consequences of R-Parity violating interactions for anomalies in Bˉ→D(∗)τνˉ\bar B\to D^{(*)} \tau \bar \nu and b→sμ+μ−b\to s \mu^+\mu^-

    Full text link
    We investigate the possibility of explaining the enhancement in semileptonic decays of Bˉ→D(∗)τνˉ\bar B \to D^{(*)} \tau \bar \nu, the anomalies induced by b→sμ+μ−b\to s\mu^+\mu^- in Bˉ→(K,K∗,ϕ)μ+μ−\bar B\to (K, K^*, \phi)\mu^+\mu^- and violation of lepton universality in RK=Br(Bˉ→Kμ+μ−)/Br(Bˉ→Ke+e−)R_K = Br(\bar B\to K \mu^+\mu^-)/Br(\bar B\to K e^+e^-) within the framework of R-parity violating (RPV) MSSM. Exchange of down type right-handed squark coupled to quarks and leptons yield interactions which are similar to leptoquark induced interactions that have been proposed to explain the Bˉ→D(∗)τνˉ\bar B \to D^{(*)} \tau \bar \nu by tree level interactions and b→sμ+μ−b\to s \mu^+\mu^- anomalies by loop induced interactions, simultaneously. However, the Yukawa couplings in such theories have severe constraints from other rare processes in BB and DD decays. Although this interaction can provide a viable solution to R(D(∗))R(D^{(*)}) anomaly, we show that with the severe constraint from Bˉ→Kννˉ\bar B \to K \nu \bar \nu, it is impossible to solve the anomalies in b→sμ+μ−b\to s \mu^+\mu^- process simultaneously.Comment: RevTex, 13 pages, three figures. In our earlier version, we had neglected a contribution to C^{NP}_9 and obtained erroneous conclusions which we have corrected them in this versio
