    In composite models with colored preons leptogluons (l_(8)) has a same status with leptoquarks, excited leptons and quarks etc. We analyze resonant production of color octet electron (e_(8)) at QCD Explorer stage of the Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC). It is shown that the e_(8) discovery at the LHeC will simultaneously determine the compositeness scale.Comment: 13 pages, 12 figures, 5 table

    Numerical Method for Modeling Nucleation and Growth of Particles that Prevents Numerical Diffusion

    Full text link
    State-of-the-art models for aerosol particle nucleation and growth from a cooling vapor primarily use a nodal method to numerically solve particle growth kinetics. In this method, particles that are smaller than the critical size are omitted from consideration, because they are thermodynamically unfavorable. This omission is based on the assumption that most of the newly formed particles are above the critical size and that the subcritical-size particles are not important to take into account. Due to the nature of the nodal method, it suffers from the numerical diffusion, which can cause an artificial broadening of the cluster size distribution leading to significant overestimation of the number of large-size particles. To address these issues, we propose a more accurate numerical method that explicitly models particles of all sizes, and uses a special numerical scheme that eliminates the numerical diffusion. We extensively compare this novel method to the commonly used nodal solver of the General Dynamics Equation (GDE) for particle growth and demonstrate that it offers GDE solutions with higher accuracy without generating numerical diffusion. Incorporating small subcritical clusters into the solution is crucial for: 1) more precise determination of the entire shape of the particle size distribution function and 2) wider applicability of the model to experimental studies with non-monotonic temperature variations leading to particle evaporation.

    Compensation of B-L charge of matter with relic sneutrinos

    Full text link
    We consider massless gauge boson connected to B-L charge with and without compensation to complete the investigation of the gauging of B and L charges. Relic sneutrinos predicted by SUSY and composite models may compensate B-L charge of matter. As a consequence of the possible compensation mechanism we have shown that the available experimental data admit the range of the B-L interaction constant, 10^{-29} < {\alpha}_{B-L} < 10^{-12}, in addition to {\alpha}_{B-L} < 10^{-49} obtained without compensation.Comment: 6 page

    A Search for leptophilic Z_(l) boson at future linear colliders

    Full text link
    We study the possible dynamics associated with leptonic charge in future linear colliders. Leptophilic massive vector boson, Z_(l), have been investigated through the process e^(+)e^(-) -> mu^(+)mu^(-). We have shown that ILC and CLIC will give opportunity to observe Z_(l) with masses up to the center of mass energy if the corresponding coupling constant g_(l) exceeds 10^(-3).Comment: 12 pages, 10 figure
