Sources of CP Violation in the Two-Higgs Doublet Model
Assuming CP violation arises solely through the Higgs potential, we develop
the most general two-Higgs doublet model. There is no discrete symmetry that
distinguishes the two Higgs bosons. It is assumed that an approximate global
family symmetry sufficiently suppresses flavor-changing neutral scalar
interactions. In addition to a CKM phase, neutral boson mixing, and superweak
effects, there can be significant CP violation due to charged Higgs boson
exchange. The value of due to this last effect could be as
large as in the standard model.Comment: 8 pages, RevTex, (appear in Phys. Rev. Lett. 73, (1994) 1762 ),

A direct proof of the CSW rules
Using recursion methods similar to those of Britto, Cachazo, Feng and Witten

From Yang-Mills Lagrangian to MHV Diagrams
We prove the equivalence of a recently suggested MHV-formalism to the
standard Yang-Mills theory. This is achieved by a formally non-local change of
variables. In this note we present the explicit formulas while the detailed
proofs are postponed to a future publication.Comment: Latex,11 pages, minor changes, reference added, version to appear in

Second-quantized Landau-Zener theory for dynamical instabilities
State engineering in nonlinear quantum dynamics sometimes may demand driving
the system through a sequence of dynamically unstable intermediate states. This
very general scenario is especially relevant to dilute Bose-Einstein
condensates, for which ambitious control schemes have been based on the
powerful Gross-Pitaevskii mean field theory. Since this theory breaks down on
logarithmically short time scales in the presence of dynamical instabilities,
an interval of instabilities introduces quantum corrections, which may possibly
derail a control scheme. To provide a widely applicable theory for such quantum
corrections, this paper solves a general problem of time-dependent quantum
mechanical dynamical instability, by modelling it as a second-quantized
analogue of a Landau-Zener avoided crossing: a `twisted crossing'.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
Inherited Twistor-Space Structure of Gravity Loop Amplitudes
At tree-level, gravity amplitudes are obtainable directly from gauge theory
amplitudes via the Kawai, Lewellen and Tye closed-open string relations. We
explain how the unitarity method allows us to use these relations to obtain
coefficients of box integrals appearing in one-loop N=8 supergravity amplitudes
from the recent computation of the coefficients for N=4 super-Yang-Mills
non-maximally-helicity-violating amplitudes. We argue from factorisation that
these box coefficients determine the one-loop N=8 supergravity amplitudes,
although this remains to be proven. We also show that twistor-space properties
of the N=8 supergravity amplitudes are inherited from the corresponding
properties of N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory. We give a number of examples
illustrating these ideas.Comment: 32 pages, minor typos correcte
CP--Violating Invariants in Supersymmetry
I study the weak basis CP-violating invariants in supersymmetric models, in
particular those which cannot be expressed in terms of the Jarlskog--type
invariants, and find basis--independent conditions for CP conservation. With an
example of the K-anti-K mixing, I clarify what are the combinations of
supersymmetric parameters which are constrained by experiment.Comment: matches the PRD versio
MHV-Vertices for Gravity Amplitudes
We obtain a CSW-style formalism for calculating graviton scattering
amplitudes and prove its validity through the use of a special type of
BCFW-like parameter shift. The procedure is illustrated with explicit examples.Comment: 21 pages, minor typos corrected, proof added in section
Computationally efficient 3D analytical magnet loss prediction in surface mounted permanent magnet machines
This study proposes a computationally efficient analytical method, for accurate prediction of three-dimensional (3D) eddy current loss in the rotor magnets of surface mounted permanent magnet (SPM) machines considering slotting effect. Subdomain model incorporating stator tooth tips is employed to generate the information on radial and tangential time-derivatives of 2D magnetic field (eddy current sources) within the magnet. The distribution of the eddy current sources in 3D is established for the magnets by applying the eddy current boundary conditions and the Coulomb gauge imposed on the current vector potential. The 3D eddy current distributions in magnets are derived analytically by employing the method of variable separation and the total eddy current loss in the magnets are subsequently established. The method is validated by 3D time-stepped finite element analysis for 18-slot, 8-pole and 12-slot, 8-pole permanent magnet machines. The eddy current loss variations in the rotor magnets with axial and circumferential number of segmentations are studied. The reduction of magnet eddy current loss is investigated with respect to harmonic wavelength of the source components to suggest a suitable segmentation for the rotor magnets in SPM machines
Muon anomalous magnetic moment in the standard model with two Higgs doublets
The muon anomalous magnetic moment is investigated in the standard model with
two Higgs doublets (S2HDM) motivated from spontaneous CP violation. Thus all
the effective Yukawa couplings become complex. As a consequence of the non-zero
phase in the couplings, the one loop contribution from the neutral scalar
bosons could be positive and negative relying on the CP phases. The
interference between one and two loop diagrams can be constructive in a large
parameter space of CP-phases. This will result in a significant contribution to
muon anomalous magnetic moment even in the flavor conserving process with a
heavy neutral scalar boson ( 200 GeV) once the effective muon Yukawa
coupling is large (). In general, the one loop contributions
from lepton flavor changing scalar interactions become more important. In
particular, when all contributions are positive in a reasonable parameter space
of CP phases, the recently reported 2.6 sigma experiment vs. theory deviation
can be easily explained even for a heavy scalar boson with a relative small
Yukawa coupling in the S2HDM.Comment: 8 pages, RevTex file, 5 figures, published version Phys. Rev. D 54
