    Stoponium Search at Photon Linear Collider

    Full text link
    In some supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model fairly light superpartner of t-quark is predicted, which may form bound states ({\it stoponiums}) under certain conditions. We study prospects of search for stoponium at the future Photon Linear Collider. It is found that this machine could be the best machine for discovery and study of these resonances at some scenarios of supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. In particular, if the hhhh decay channel is dominant stoponium could be observed at the beginning of PLC run with collision energy tuned at the stoponium mass. If this channel is kinematically closed stoponium could be discovered in gggg, γγ\gamma\gamma and ZZZZ decay channels but higher statistics are needed. Effects of the stoponium-Higgs mixing and degeneracy are briefly discussed.Comment: 11 pages, 2 figures added, corrections taken into account result in increasing of signal significanc

    On sgoldstino interpretation of HyperCP events

    Full text link
    We discuss possible sgoldstino interpretation of the observation, reported by HyperCP collaboration, of three Σ+→pμ+μ−\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^- decay events with dimuon invariant mass 214.3 MeV within detector resolution. We find that this interpretation is consistent in models with (i) parity conservation in sgoldstino interactions, (ii) pseudoscalar sgoldstino PP of mass 214 MeV and heavier scalar sgoldstino, and (iii) low supersymmetry breaking scale, \sqrt{F} = 2.5-60 TeV. In these models, sgoldstino can be observed in decays K+→π+π0PK^+\to\pi^+\pi^0 P, KL→ππPK_L\to\pi\pi P and KS→ππPK_S\to\pi\pi P at the branching ratios of at least of order 10^{-12}, 10^{-8} and 10^{-11}, respectively. The model can be probed also at e^+e^- colliders in the channels e+e−→γPe^+e^-\to\gamma P and e+e−→e+e−Pe^+e^-\to e^+e^-P, where the cross section is likely to be in the range 1 pb - 5 ab.Comment: 14 pages, 1 figure; v2: replaced with journal version, predictions for kaons refine

    Gravity waves from inflating brane or Mirrors moving in adS5_5

    We study tensor perturbations in a model with inflating Randall--Sundrum-type brane embedded in five-dimensional anti-de Sitter (adS5_5) bulk. In this model, a natural {\it in}-vacuum of gravitons is the vacuum defined in static adS5_5 frame. We show that this vacuum is, in fact, the same as the {\it in}-vacuum defined in the frame with de Sitter (dS4_4) slicing, in which the brane is at rest. Thus, during inflation, gravitons on and off the brane remain in their vacuum state. We then study graviton creation by the brane on which inflation terminates at some moment of time. We mostly consider gravitons whose wavelengths at the end of inflation exceed both the horizon size and the adS5_5 radius. Creation of these gravitons is dominated by (zero mode)--(zero mode) Bogoliubov coefficients and, apart from an overall factor, the spectrum of produced gravitons is the same as in four-dimensional theory. ``Kaluza--Klein'' gravitons are also produced, but this effect is subdominant. Graviton spectra at somewhat higher momenta are also presented for completeness.Comment: 33 pages, 1 figur
