Mirror World and its Cosmological Consequences
We briefly review the concept of a parallel `mirror' world which has the same
particle physics as the observable world and couples to the latter by gravity
and perhaps other very weak forces. The nucleosynthesis bounds demand that the
mirror world should have a smaller temperature than the ordinary one. By this
reason its evolution should substantially deviate from the standard cosmology
as far as the crucial epochs like baryogenesis, nucleosynthesis etc. are
concerned. In particular, we show that in the context of certain baryogenesis
scenarios, the baryon asymmetry in the mirror world should be larger than in
the observable one. Moreover, we show that mirror baryons could naturally
constitute the dominant dark matter component of the Universe, and discuss its
cosmological implications
Masses of Fermions in Supersymmetric Models
We consider the mass generation for the usual quarks and leptons in some
supersymmetric models. The masses of the top, the bottom, the charm, the tau
and the muon are given at the tree level. All the other quarks and the electron
get their masses at the one loop level in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard
Model (MSSM) and in two Supersymmetric Left-Right Models, one model uses
triplets (SUSYLRT) to break -symmetry and the other use
doublets(SUSYLRD).Comment: 24 pages, 2 figures and 3 table
