Constraints on Unparticle Interactions from Invisible Decays of Z, Quarkonia and Neutrinos
Unparticles (\U) interact weakly with particles. The direct signature of
unparticles will be in the form of missing energy. We study constraints on
unparticle interactions using totally invisible decay modes of , vector
quarkonia and neutrinos. The constraints on the unparticle interaction
scale \Lambda_\U are very sensitive to the dimension d_\U of the
unparticles. From invisible and decays, we find that with d_\U close
to 1 for vector \U, the unparticle scale \Lambda_\U can be more than
TeV, and for d_\U around 2, the scale can be lower than one TeV. From
invisible neutrino decays, we find that if d_\U is close to 3/2, the scale
can be more than the Planck mass, but with d_\U around 2 the scale can be as
low as a few hundred GeV. We also study the possibility of using V (Z)\to
\gamma + \U to constrain unparticle interactions, and find that present data
give weak constraints.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, version to appear in JHEP
Gapped spin liquid with -topological order for kagome Heisenberg model
We apply symmetric tensor network state (TNS) to study the nearest neighbor
spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on Kagome lattice. Our method keeps
track of the global and gauge symmetries in TNS update procedure and in tensor
renormalization group (TRG) calculation. We also introduce a very sensitive
probe for the gap of the ground state -- the modular matrices, which can also
determine the topological order if the ground state is gapped. We find that the
ground state of Heisenberg model on Kagome lattice is a gapped spin liquid with
the -topological order (or toric code type), which has a long
correlation length unit cell length. We justify that the TRG
method can handle very large systems with over thousands of spins. Such a long
explains the gapless behaviors observed in simulations on smaller systems
with less than 300 spins or shorter than 10 unit cell length. We also discuss
experimental implications of the topological excitations encoded in our
symmetric tensors.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figure
