Asymmetrical bloch branes and the hierarchy problem
We investigate a two scalar fields split braneworld model which leads to a
possible approach to the hierarchy problem within the thick brane scenario. The
model exhibits a resulting asymmetric warp factor suitable for this purpose.
The solution is obtained by means of the orbit equation approach for a specific
value of one of the parameters. Besides, we analyze the model qualitative
behaviour for arbitrary parameters by inspecting the underlying dynamical
system defined by the equations which give rise to the braneworld model. We
finalize commenting on the metric fluctuation and stability issues.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figure

An Investigation into the Effect of the Shell on SALM Processed Parts
Shell Assisted Layer Manufacturing (SALM) is a novel process for rapid prototyping/
tooling/ manufacture (RP/RT/RM) which is presently undergoing feasibility studies. SALM is
based on layered manufacturing technology (LMT). Initially it develops the shell (boundaries)
of a selected layer using a technique similar to fused deposition modelling (FDM). The
developed shell is filled with a UV curable resin and is exposed to UV radiation for curing.
This procedure is repeated until the complete part is built. This paper compares and contrasts
properties of parts made using two options available with the SALM technique: building the
part using a soluble shell (FDM support structure material, finally dissolved to recover the
part); or using a polymer material such as ABS that is bonded with the resin whilst making
the part.Mechanical Engineerin
Bounds on the Simplest Little Higgs Model Mass Spectrum Through Z Leptonic Decay
We derive the leptonic neutral current in the simplest little Higgs model and
compute the contribution of the model to the decay width . Using
the precision electroweak data we obtain a strong lower bound TeV
at 95% C.L. on the characteristic energy scale of the model. It results in a
lower bound for the new gauge bosons and as being
TeV and TeV, respectively.
We also present the allowed values of the which is the parameter
relating the two vacuum expectation values of the scalar triplets in the model,
and the parameter of a quadratic term, involving the triplets, necessary
to provide an acceptable mass range for the standard Higgs boson.Comment: New references added, 13 pages. Version to be publishe
Realizing the supersymmetric inverse seesaw model in the framework of R-parity violation
If, on one hand, the inverse seesaw is the paradigm of TeV scale seesaw
mechanism, on the other it is a challenge to find scenarios capable of
realizing it. In this work we propose a scenario, based on the framework of
R-parity violation, that realizes minimally the supersymmetric inverse seesaw
mechanism. In it the energy scale parameters involved in the mechanism are
recognized as the vacuum expectation values of the scalars that compose the
singlet superfields and . We develop also the scalar sector
of the model and show that the Higgs mass receives a new tree-level
contribution that, when combined with the standard contribution plus loop
correction, is capable of attaining GeV without resort to heavy stops.Comment: Minor modification of the text. Final version to be published in PL
