Search for the Lepton Flavour Violating Higgs decay H --> tau mu at Hadron Colliders
We study the prospects to detect at hadron colliders the Lepton Flavour
Violating Higgs decay H --> tau mu, which can reach substantial branching
fractions in several extensions of the SM. Among them, the generic two higgs
doublet model can be taken as a representative case where B.R.(H --> tau mu)
can reach values of order 10^-1-10^-2. Bounds on the LFV factor kappa_{tau mu}
of order 0.8-1.7 can be derived at 95% c.l. at Tevatron Run-2 with 4 fb^-1 for
m_H = 110-150 GeV.Comment: 3 pages, 1 figure, uses RevTeX4. Contribution to Snowmass 200
Modellierung zeitabhängiger 3D-Modelle in der Geotechnik
Aufgrund der steigenden quantitativen und qualitativen Anforderungen an den Bauplanungsprozeß wird in den letzten Jahren nach neuen Lösungsansätzen gesucht, mit deren Hilfe der Bauplanungsprozeß den gestiegenen Anforderungen angepaßt werden kann. Ein Lösungsansatz hierzu stellt die durchgängig computergestützte, dreidimensionale und zeitabhängige Modellierung und Verwaltung des Bauplanungsprozesses beginnend bei der Vorplanung bis hin zum Recycling des Bauobjektes am Ende seiner Lebensdauer dar. Der vorliegende Beitrag zeigt auf, daß gerade der zeitliche Verlauf innerhalb einer geotechnischen Aufgabenstellung einen nicht unerheblichen Einfluß auf die verwendeten Modelle bzw. die Durchführung von Sicherheitsnachweisen ausübt. Für die Entwicklung geotechnischer Softwaresysteme ergibt sich daraus schon innerhalb der Analysephase die Anforderung, die zeitkritischen Abhängigkeiten zu modellieren und entsprechend im Entwurf zu berücksichtigen. Hierfür hat sich die objektorientierte Methode in Form des Objektmodells und des dynamischen Modells nach Rumbaugh als ein geeignetes Werkzeug herausgestellt. Die dabei gewonnenen Erkenntnisse und Ergebnisse können bereits sehr früh in die Konzeption des Gesamtsystems mit einbezogen werden. Am Beispiel des Geotechnischen Informationssystems (GTIS) führte dies zu einer raum- und zeitabhängigen Verwaltung des Boden- und Konstruktionsmodells und zu einer Bauablaufsteuerung, innerhalb derer die einzelnen Bauzustände verwaltet und mit den entsprechenden Ausprägungen innerhalb des dreidimensionalen Boden- und Konstruktionsmodells verknüpft werden können
A More Flavored Higgs boson in Supersymmetric models
A More flavored Higgs boson arises when the flavor structure encoded in SUSY
extensions of the SM is transmited to the Higgs sector. The flavor-Higgs
transmition mechanism can have a radiative or mixing origin, as it is
illustrated with several examples, and can produce interesting Higgs signatures
that can be probed at future high-energy colliders. Within the MSSM, the flavor
mediation mechanism can be of radiative type, as it is realized trhough
gaugino-slepton loops, which transmit the flavor structture of the
soft-breaking sector to the Higgs bosons. In particular we focus on evaluating
the contributions from the general trilinear terms to the lepton flavor
violating Higgs (LFV) vertices. On the other hand, as an example of flavor
mediation through mixing, we discuss an E_6 inspired multi-Higgs model, with an
abelian flavor symmetry, where LFV as well as lepton flavor conserving Higgs
effects are found to arise, though in this case at tree-level. We find that
Tevatron and LHC can provide information on the flavor structure of these
models through the detection of the LFV higgs mode h-> tau+mu, while NLC can
perform high-precision measurements of the LFC mode h-> tau tau.Comment: 17 pages, 5 tables, 3 figures; corrected mistake in last section,

Dissipative quantum dynamics in low-energy collisions of complex nuclei
Model calculations that include the effects of irreversible, environmental
couplings on top of a coupled-channels dynamical description of the collision
of two complex nuclei are presented. The Liouville-von Neumann equation for the
time-evolution of the density matrix of a dissipative system is solved
numerically providing a consistent transition from coherent to decoherent (and
dissipative) dynamics during the collision. Quantum decoherence and dissipation
are clearly manifested in the model calculations. Energy dissipation, due to
the irreversible decay of giant-dipole vibrational states of the colliding
nuclei, is shown to result in a hindrance of quantum tunneling and fusion.Comment: Accepted in Physical Review

Classical Novae as a Probe of the Cataclysmic Variable Population
Classical Novae (CNe) are the brightest manifestation of mass transfer onto a
white dwarf in a cataclysmic variable (CV). As such, they are probes of the
mass transfer rate, Mdot, and WD mass, Mwd, in these interacting binaries. Our
calculations of the dependence of the CN ignition mass, Mign, on Mdot and Mwd
yields the recurrence times of these explosions. We show that the observed CNe
orbital period distribution is consistent with the interrupted magnetic braking
evolutionary scenario, where at orbital periods Porb > 3 hr mass transfer is
driven by angular momentum loss via a wind from the companion star and at Porb
< 3 hr by gravitational radiation. About 50% of CNe occur in binaries accreting
at Mdot ~= 10^{-9} Msun/yr with Porb = 3-4 hr, with the remaining 50% split
evenly between Porb longer (higher Mdot) and shorter (lower Mdot) than this.
This resolution of the relative contribution to the CN rate from different CVs
tells us that 3(9)x10^5 CVs with WD mass 1.0(0.6)Msun are needed to produce one
CN per year. Using the K-band specific CN rate measured in external galaxies,
we find a CV birthrate of 2(4)x10^{-4}/yr per 10^{10}Lsun,K, very similar to
the luminosity specific Type Ia supernova rate in elliptical galaxies.
Likewise, we predict that there should be 60-180 CVs for every 10^6Lsun,K in an
old stellar population, similar to the number of X-ray identified CVs in the
globular cluster 47 Tuc, showing no overabundance relative to the field. Using
a two-component steady state model of CV evolution we show that the fraction of
CVs which are magnetic (22%) implies a birthrate of 8% relative to non-magnetic
CVs, similar to the fraction of strongly magnetic field WDs. (abridged)Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, Accepted to the Astrophysical Journa
Natural 2HDMs without FCNCs
Motivated by the fermion mass hierarchy we study the phenomenology of two flavorful two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) scenarios. By virtue of the flavor or singular alignment ansatz it is possible to link the mass of a subset of fermions to the vacuum-expectation-value (VEV) of a unique Higgs doublet and to simultaneously avoid flavor-changing-neutral-currents at tree-level. We explicitly construct two models called Type-A and B. There, either the top quark alone or all third generation fermions couple to the doublet with the larger VEV. The other fermions acquire their masses through the small VEV of the other doublet. Thus, more natural values for the Yukawa couplings can be obtained. The main differences between these models and conventional ones are studied including a discussion of both their structure and phenomenological consequences. In particular, as distinctive deviations for the Yukawa couplings of the light fermions are predicted we discuss possible tests at the LHC based on searches for , , and heavy scalar resonances decaying to muon pairs. We find that for a wide region of parameter space this specific set of signatures can be used to distinguish among the new proposed types and the conventional ones
Mass matrix Ansatz and lepton flavor violation in the THDM-III
Predictive Higgs-fermion couplings can be obtained when a specific texture
for the fermion mass matrices is included in the general two-Higgs doublet
model. We derive the form of these couplings in the charged lepton sector using
a Hermitian mass matrix Ansatz with four-texture zeros. The presence of
unconstrained phases in the vertices phi-li-lj modifies the pattern of
flavor-violating Higgs interactions. Bounds on the model parameters are
obtained from present limits on rare lepton flavor violating processes, which
could be extended further by the search for the decay tau -> mu mu mu and mu-e
conversion at future experiments. The signal from Higgs boson decays phi -> tau
mu could be searched at the large hadron collider (LHC), while e-mu transitions
could produce a detectable signal at a future e mu-collider, through the
reaction e mu -> h0 -> tau tau.Comment: 17 pages, 9 figure
Computational studies on heterogenization of homogeneous catalyst of iron(III), nickel(II) and copper(II) N,N′-disalicylidene-1,2-phenylenediamine complex
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out on iron(III), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of N,N′-ethylenebis(salicylimine) both at molecular level (isolated complexes) and encapsulated in a zeolite framework to investigate changes that occur in their geometrical and electronic parameters as well as in their reactivity and stability. The computational results showed that the zeolite encapsulated metal complexes have higher reactivity and less stability as compared to the isolated metal complexes.
