    New physics for muon anomalous magnetic moment and its electroweak precision analysis

    Full text link
    About 3 sigma deviation from the standard model prediction of muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon g-2) has been reported. We consider new physics beyond the standard model which has new Yukawa interactions with muon. We compute new contributions to muon g-2 and corrections to electroweak observables, and show the consistent region of parameter space. We find that in a simple model where the chirality flip of muon occurs only in the external muon line in one-loop muon g-2 diagrams, it is necessary to introduce the relatively large new Yukawa coupling and the electroweak scale new particles. On the other hand, in a model where the chirality flip can occur in the internal fermion line of one loop muon g-2 diagrams, we can obtain favorable g-2 contributions without large Yukawa coupling, and they are consistent with the precision electroweak observables. Finally, we discuss effects of new particles for muon g-2 on the Higgs boson decay h to 2 photons and direct productions of these particles at the LHC experiment.Comment: 31 pages, 20 figure

    The residual stress field of HIPed Si3N4 rolling elements were studied. Two kinds of HIPed Si3N4 ball blanks self-finished at different nominal lapping loads ranging from 1.3 to 10.87 kgf/ball and four kinds of commercially finished 1/2 in (12.7 mm) HIPed Si3N4 balls before, during and after RCF tests were investigated. The experimental results showed that in the finishing process of HIPed Si3N4 rolling elements. the surface and subsurface compressive residual stress induced is proportional to the lapping load applied. There was initially a high compressive residual stress layer on the HIPed Si3N4 ball blanks and this layer is mostly removed during the finishing process. During the rolling contact fatigue process of HIPed Si3N4 rolling elements, the residual stresses on the rolling track will change dramatically as RCF proceeds

    Exact Event Rates of Lepton Flavor Violating Processes in Supersymmetric SU(5) Model

    Get PDF
    Event rates of various lepton flavor violating processes in the minimal supersymmetric SU(5) model are calculated, using exact formulas which include Yukawa vertices of lepton-slepton-Higgsino. We find subtlety in evaluating event rates due to partial cancellation between diagrams. This cancellation typically reduces the event rates significantly, and the size of the reduction strongly depends on superparticle mass spectrum.Comment: 11pages, 8 figures. Fig.5 where the mu-e conversion rates in nuclei was shown was incorrect due to an error in our numerical computation.It is replaced in this corrected version. All conclusions remain unchange

    Localization problem of the quasiperiodic system with the spin orbit interaction

    Full text link
    We study one dimensional quasiperiodic system obtained from the tight-binding model on the square lattice in a uniform magnetic field with the spin orbit interaction. The phase diagram with respect to the Harper coupling and the Rashba coupling are proposed from a number of numerical studies including a multifractal analysis. There are four phases, I, II, III, and IV in this order from weak to strong Harper coupling. In the weak coupling phase I all the wave functions are extended, in the intermediate coupling phases II and III mobility edges exist, and accordingly both localized and extended wave functions exist, and in the strong Harper coupling phase IV all the wave functions are localized. Phase I and Phase IV are related by the duality, and phases II and III are related by the duality, as well. A localized wave function is related to an extended wave function by the duality, and vice versa. The boundary between phases II and III is the self-dual line on which all the wave functions are critical. In the present model the duality does not lead to pure spectra in contrast to the case of Harper equation.Comment: 10 pages, 11 figure

    Effective Two Higgs Doublets in Nonminimal Supersymmetric Models

    Full text link
    The Higgs sectors of supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model have two doublets in the minimal version (MSSM), and two doublets plus a singlet in two others: with (UMSSM) and without (NMSSM) an extra U(1)'. A very concise comparison of these three models is possible if we assume that the singlet has a somewhat larger breaking scale compared to the electroweak scale. In that case, the UMSSM and the NMSSM become effectively two-Higgs-doublet models (THDM), like the MSSM. As expected, the mass of the lightest CP-even neutral Higgs boson has an upper bound in each case. We find that in the NMSSM, this bound exceeds not very much that of the MSSM, unless tan(beta) is near one. However, the upper bound in the UMSSM may be substantially enhanced.Comment: 8 pages, 1 table, 3 figure

    Neutrino mixing and large CP violation in B physics

    Full text link
    We show that in see-saw models of neutrino mass a la SUSY SO(10), the observed large mixing in atmospheric neutrinos naturally leads to large b-s transitions. If the associated new CP phase turns out to be large, this SUSY contributions can drastically affect the CP violation in some of the B decay channels yielding the beta and gamma angles of the unitarity triangle. They can even produce sizeable CP asymmetries in some decay modes which are not CP violating in the standard model context. Hence the observed large neutrino mixing makes observations of low energy SUSY effect in some CP violating decay channels potentially promising in spite of the agreement between the Standard Model and data in K and B physics so far.Comment: References adde

    Bi-large Neutrino Mixing and Mass of the Lightest Neutrino from Third Generation Dominance in a Democratic Approach

    Full text link
    We show that both small mixing in the quark sector and large mixing in the lepton sector can be obtained from a simple assumption of universality of Yukawa couplings and the right-handed neutrino Majorana mass matrix in leading order. We discuss conditions under which bi-large mixing in the lepton sector is achieved with a minimal amount of fine-tuning requirements for possible models. From knowledge of the solar and atmospheric mixing angles we determine the allowed values of sin \theta_{13}. If embedded into grand unified theories, the third generation Yukawa coupling unification is a generic feature while masses of the first two generations of charged fermions depend on small perturbations. In the neutrino sector, the heavier two neutrinos are model dependent, while the mass of the lightest neutrino in this approach does not depend on perturbations in the leading order. The right-handed neutrino mass scale can be identified with the GUT scale in which case the mass of the lightest neutrino is given as (m_{top}^2/M_{GUT}) sin^2 \theta_{23} sin^2 \theta_{12} in the limit sin \theta_{13} = 0. Discussing symmetries we make a connection with hierarchical models and show that the basis independent characteristic of this scenario is a strong dominance of the third generation right-handed neutrino, M_1, M_2 < 10^{-4} M_3, M_3 = M_{GUT}.Comment: typos correcte

    Crystal Field and Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya Interaction in orbitally ordered La_{0.95}Sr_{0.05}MnO_3: An ESR Study

    Full text link
    We present a comprehensive analysis of Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction and crystal-field parameters using the angular dependence of the paramagnetic resonance shift and linewidth in single crystals of La_{0.95}Sr_{0.05}MnO_3 within the orthorhombic Jahn-Teller distorted phase. The Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction (~ 1K) results from the tilting of the MnO_6 octahedra against each other. The crystal-field parameters D and E are found to be of comparable magnitude (~ 1K) with D ~= -E. This indicates a strong mixing of the |3z^2-r^2> and |x^2-y^2> states for the real orbital configuration.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figure

    Anisotropic Optic Conductivities due to Spin and Orbital Orderings in LaVO3 and YVO3: First-Principles Studies

    Full text link
    The anisotropy of low energy (0\sim5eV) optical excitations in strongly correlated transition-metal oxides is closely related to the spin and orbital orderings. The recent successes of LDA+UU method in describing the magnetic and electronic structures enable us to calculate the optical conductivity from first-principles. The LaVO3_3 and YVO3_3, both of which have 3d23d^2 configuration and have various spin and orbital ordered phases at low temperature, show distinct anisotropy in the optical spectra. The effects of spin and orbital ordering on the anisotropy are studied in detail based on our first-principles calculations. The experimental spectra of both compounds at low temperature phases can be qualitatively explained with our calculations, while the studies for the intermediate temperature phase of YVO3_3 suggest the substantial persistence of the low temperature phase at elevated temperature.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, accepted by PR
