    Heavy QQ(bar) "Fireball" Annihilation to Multiple Vector Bosons

    Full text link
    Drawing analogy of replacing the nucleon by heavy chiral quark QQ, the pion by Goldstone boson GG, and πNN\pi NN coupling by GQQGQQ coupling, we construct a statistical model for QQˉ→nGQ\bar Q \to nG annihilation, i.e. into nn longitudinal weak bosons. This analogy is becoming prescient since the LHC direct bound mQ>611m_Q > 611 GeV implies strong Yukawa coupling. Taking mQ∈(1,2)m_Q \in (1, 2) TeV, the mean number ranges from 6 to over 10, with negligible two or three boson production. With individual t′t' or b′b' decays suppressed either by phase space or quark mixing, and given the strong Yukawa coupling, QQˉ→nVLQ\bar Q\to nV_L is the likely outcome for very heavy QQˉQ\bar Q production at the LHC.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figur

    Algebraic Reduction of Feynman Diagrams to Scalar Integrals: a Mathematica implementation of LERG-I

    Get PDF
    A Mathematica implementation of the program LERG-I is presented that performs the reduction of tensor integrals, encountered in one-loop Feynman diagram calculations, to scalar integrals. The program was originally coded in REDUCE and in that incarnation was applied to a number of problems of physical interest.Comment: 16 page

    Source of CP Violation for the Baryon Asymmetry of the Universe

    Full text link
    We give a description of why the existence of a fourth generation is likely to provide enough CP violation for baryogenesis, and trace how this observation came about. We survey the current experimental and theoretical pursuits and outline a research agenda, touching upon unitarity violation and very heavy chiral quarks, and comment on how the electroweak phase transition picture might be altered.Comment: Invited talk presented at 2nd International Workshop on Dark Matter, Dark Energy and Matter-antimatter Asymmetry, Hsinchu, Taiwan, November 5-6, 201

    Binary Icosahedral Flavor Symmetry for Four Generations of Quarks and Leptons

    Full text link
    To include the quark sector, the A5≡IA_{5}\equiv I (icosahedron) four generation lepton model is extended to a binary icosahedral symmetry I′I' flavor model. We find the masses of fermions, including the heavy sectors, can be accommodated. At leading order the CKM matrix is the identity and the PMNS matrix, resulting from same set of vacua, corresponds to tribimaximal mixings.Comment: 13 pages, 4 tables and one figure.

    Communication systems supporting multimedia multi-user applications

    Get PDF
    Multimedia multi-user applications are becoming more and more important. Intensive research is underway on the design of protocols and protocol entities for future communication systems supporting multimedia multi-user applications. The development of a service description ensures that protocol designs actually produce the required functional behavior. The authors explain the approach to the description of a multimedia multi-user service. An example illustrates the use of the service description in the design of communication systems. Next, they present the basic requirements of multimedia and multi-user communications. A call model underlies and structures the service description. Finally, the authors describe the service in terms of service element
