Spontaneous CP violation in the 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos
We implement the mechanism of spontaneous CP violation in the 3-3-1 model
with right-handed neutrinos and recognize their sources of CP violation. Our
main result is that the mechanism works already in the minimal version of the
model and new sources of CP violation emerges as an effect of new physics at
energies higher than the electroweak scale.Comment: Major changes in the quark sector, electronic dipole moment of the
neutron was evaluated, accepted for publication in the physical review
Spin-polarized transport in ferromagnetic multilayered semiconductor nanostructures
The occurrence of inhomogeneous spin-density distribution in multilayered
ferromagnetic diluted magnetic semiconductor nanostructures leads to strong
dependence of the spin-polarized transport properties on these systems. The
spin-dependent mobility, conductivity and resistivity in
(Ga,Mn)As/GaAs,(Ga,Mn)N/GaN, and (Si,Mn)/Si multilayers are calculated as a
function of temperature, scaled by the average magnetization of the diluted
magnetic semiconductor layers. An increase of the resistivity near the
transition temperature is obtained. We observed that the spin-polarized
transport properties changes strongly among the three materials.Comment: 3 pages, 4 figure
Majorana Dark Matter in Minimal Higgs Portal Models after LUX
We consider the Singlet Majorana fermion dark matter model, in which the
standard model particles interact with the dark sector through the mixing of a
singlet scalar and the Higgs boson. In this model both the dark matter and the
singlet scalar carry lepton number, the latter being a bilepton. We suppose the
existence of a symmetry, remnant of some high energy local symmetry
breaking, that stabilizes the Majorana fermion. We analyzed the parameter space
of this model and found that the lepton number symmetry breaking scale, drove
by the singlet scalar, is constrained to be within hundreds to thousands of
GeV, so as to conform with the observed dark matter relic density. Finally, we
address the direct detection and invisible Higgs decay complementarity,
confronting our model with recent LUX and LHC constraints, as well as XENON1T
prospects.Comment: 20 pages, 12 figure
