Experimental constraints on the parameter space of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model at LEP 2
We search for the neutral Higgs sector of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric
standard model at LEP 2. At the tree level any experimental constraints on
cannot be set by the Higgs search at LEP 2 with = 175
GeV, whereas at LEP 2 with = 192 GeV can be set by an
experimental constraint. Furthermore the tree level parameter space of the
model can be completely explored by the Higgs search at LEP 2 with =
205 GeV. Radiative corrections both to the neutral Higgs boson masses and to
the relevant couplings for the scalar Higgs productions give large
contributions to the production cross sections of the scalar Higgs bosons at
the tree level. The tree level situation at LEP 2 with = 192 GeV as
well as with = 205 GeV can be drastically changed by these effects.
We expect that a small region of the 1-loop level parameter space of the model
via the scalar Higgs production can be explored by the Higgs search at LEP 2.Comment: 14 pages (3 figures are included
Duality of Quasilocal Gravitational Energy and Charges with Non-orthogonal Boundaries
We study the duality of quasilocal energy and charges with non-orthogonal
boundaries in the (2+1)-dimensional low-energy string theory. Quasilocal
quantities shown in the previous work and some new variables arisen from
considering the non-orthogonal boundaries as well are presented, and the boost
relations between those quantities are discussed. Moreover, we show that the
dual properties of quasilocal variables such as quasilocal energy density,
momentum densities, surface stress densities, dilaton pressure densities, and
Neuve-Schwarz(NS) charge density, are still valid in the moving observer's
frame.Comment: 19pages, 1figure, RevTe

Hawking Temperature in Taub-NUT (A)dS spaces via the Generalized Uncertainty Principle
Using the extended forms of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle from string
theory and the quantum gravity theory, we drived Hawking temperature of a
Taub-Nut-(A)dS black hole. In spite of their distinctive natures such as
asymptotically locally flat and breakdown of the area theorem of the horizon
for the black holes, we show that the corrections to Hawking temperature by the
generalized versions of the the Heisenberg uncertainty principle increases like
the Schwarzschild-(A)dS black hole and give the reason why the Taub-Nut-(A)dS
metric may have AdS/CFT dual picture.Comment: version published in General Relativity and Gravitatio
Neutral Higgs bosons in the MNMSSM with explicit CP violation
Within the framework of the minimal non-minimal supersymmetric standard model
(MNMSSM) with tadpole terms, CP violation effects in the Higgs sector are
investigated at the one-loop level, where the radiative corrections from the
loops of the quark and squarks of the third generation are taken into account.
Assuming that the squark masses are not degenerate, the radiative corrections
due to the stop and sbottom quarks give rise to CP phases, which trigger the CP
violation explicitly in the Higgs sector of the MNMSSM. The masses, the
branching ratios for dominant decay channels, and the total decay widths of the
five neutral Higgs bosons in the MNMSSM are calculated in the presence of the
explicit CP violation. The dependence of these quantities on the CP phases is
quite recognizable, for given parameter values.Comment: 25 pages, 8 figure
Neutral Higgs sector of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model with explicit CP violation
The neutral Higgs sector of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model
(NMSSM) with explicit CP violation is investigated at the 1-loop level, using
the effective potential method; not only the loops involving the third
generation of quarks and scalar quarks, but also the loops involving boson,
charged Higgs boson, and chargino are taken into account. It is found that for
some parameter values of the NMSSM the contributions from the boson,
charged Higgs boson, and chargino loops may modify the masses of the neutral
Higgs bosons and the mixings among them significantly, depending on the CP
phase. In collisions, the prospects for discovering neutral Higgs
bosons are investigated within the context of the NMSSM with explicit CP
violation when the dominant component of the lightest neutral Higgs boson is
the Higgs singlet field of the NMSSM.Comment: Latex, 23 pages, 6 figure
Possibility of spontaneous CP violation in the nonminimal supersymmetric standard model with two neutral Higgs singlets
A supersymmetric standard model with two Higgs doublets and two Higgs
singlets is investigated if it can accommodate the possibility of spontaneous
CP violation. Assuming the degeneracy of the scalar quark masses of the third
generation, we find that spontaneous CP violation in the Higgs sector is viable
in our model. In the case of spontaneous CP violation, the masses of the
lightest two neutral Higgs bosons are estimated to be 80 and 125 GeV for some
parameter values in our model, which, are consistent with LEP2 data.Comment: 18 pages, 3figure
Zirconolite and baddeleyite in an ultramafic suite from southern India: Early Ordovician carbonatite-type melts associated with extensional collapse of the Gondwana crust
金沢大学理工研究域自然システム学系We report here the occurrence of rare zirconium-bearing minerals, zirconolite (CaZrTi2O7) and baddeleyite (ZrO2), from an unusual ultramafic suite within the Achankovil Shear Zone (ACSZ) in southern India. Zirconolite occurs as inclusions within spinel in phlogopite-graphite spinellite and shows characteristic development of radial cracks. Baddeleyite is commonly observed as an included phase within phlogopite from phlogopite dunite and graphite-spinel glimmerite. The mineral also occurs less commonly within spinel and graphite from graphite-spinel glimmerite. The composition of zirconolite is characterized by an enrichment of U and Th over rare earth elements. Baddeleyite shows abundance of Zr with minor Hf, Ti, and U. The mode of occurrence along with the chemical composition of these minerals implies their formation as early-stage crystallization products from a silica-undersaturated melt that was enriched in "carbonatite-phile elements" such as Ca, Zr, Ti, and volatiles CO2 and H2O. We report U-Pb chemical ages from the zirconolite that show a mean of 469 ± 11 Ma. We correlate this age with the timing of emplacement and consolidation of the ultramafic suite within ACSZ, and it is considerably younger than the late Neoproterozoic-Cambrian ages reported from this zone. Our data suggest early Ordovician carbonatite-type melts emplaced within ACSZ, which we identify as a mantle-rooted zone. We infer that deep-seated extension along the ACSZ probably triggered the generation of such melts, related to the extensional collapse of the orogen following the collisional assembly of the Gondwana supercontinent. © 2006 by The University of Chicago.

Charged Higgs boson in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model with explicit CP violation
The phenomenology of the explicit CP violation in the Higgs sector of the
next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model (NMSSM) is investigated, with
emphasis on the charged Higgs boson. The radiative corrections due to both
quarks and scalar-quarks of the third generation are taken into account, and
the negative result of the search for the Higgs bosons at CERN LEP2, with the
discovery limit of 0.1 pb, is imposed as a constraint. It is found that there
are parameter regions of the NMSSM where the lightest neutral Higgs boson may
even be massless, without being detected at LEP2. This implies that the LEP2
data do not contradict the existence of a massless neutral Higgs boson in the
NMSSM. For the charged Higgs boson, the radiative corrections to its mass may
be negative in some parameter regions of the NMSSM. The phenomenological lower
bound on the radiatively corrected mass of the charged Higgs boson is increased
as the CP violation becomes maximal, i.e., as the CP violating phase becomes
. At the maximal CP violation, its lower bound is about 110 GeV for 5
40. The vacuum expectation value (VEV) of the
neutral Higgs singlet is shown to be no smaller than 16 GeV for any parameter
values of the NMSSM with explicit CP violation. This value of the lower limit
is found to increase up to about 45 GeV as the ratio () of the VEVs
of the two Higgs doublets decreases to smaller values ( 2). The discovery
limit of the Higgs boson search at LEP2 is found to cover about a half of the
kinematically allowed part of the whole parameter space of the NMSSM, and the
portion is roughly stable against the CP violating phase.Comment: Latex, 24 pages, 6 figure
Explicit CP violation in the Dine-Seiberg-Thomas model
The possibility of explicit CP violation is studied in a supersymmetric model
proposed by Dine, Seiberg, and Thomas, with two effective dimension-five
operators. The explicit CP violation may be triggered by complex phases in the
coefficients for the dimension-five operators in the Higgs potential, and by a
complex phase in the scalar top quark masses. Although the scenario of explicit
CP violation is found to be inconsistent with the experimental data at LEP2 at
the tree level, it may be possible at the one-loop level. For a reasonable
parameter space, the masses of the neutral Higgs bosons and their couplings to
a pair of bosons are consistent with the LEP2 data, at the one-loop level.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figure
