The quark strange star in the enlarged Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

The strange quark star is investigated within the enlarged SU(3) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. The stable quark star can exist until a maximal configuration with {rho}{sub m}=3.1x10{sup 15} g cm{sup -3} with M{sub m}=1.61 M{sub circle} and R{sub m}=8.74 km is reached. Strange quarks appear for density above {rho}{sub c}=9.84 g cm{sup -3} for the quark star with radius R{sub c}=8.003 km and M{sub c}=0.77 M{sub circle}. A comparison of quark star properties obtained in the quark mean-field approach to a neutron star model constructed within the relativistic mean-field theory is presented. (author)

The quark strange star in the enlarged Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. Corrigendum. 2002 New J. Phys. 4 14  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

The abstract contains a misprint in the value for the star central density, {rho}{sub s}, above which strange quarks appear. A factor of 10{sup 14} was omitted from the original version. Strange quarks appear for central densities {rho}{sub c} above {rho}{sub s}=9.85x10{sup 14} g cm{sup -3}. The abstract has also been rewritten to differentiate more clearly {rho}{sub c}, the general star central density, {rho}{sub m}, the maximal central density and {rho}{sub s} the minimal central density. It now reads as: The strange quark star is investigated within the enlarged SU(3) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. The stable star can exist until a maximal configuration with central density {rho}{sub c}={rho}{sub m}=3.11x10{sup 15} g cm{sup -3} with M{sub m}=1.61 M circle and R{sub m}=8.74 km is reached.

Supersymmetry Breaking Scalar Masses and Trilinear Soft Terms From High-Dimensional Operators in E_6 SUSY GUT  

CERN Document Server

In the GmSUGRA scenario with the high-dimensional operators containing the GUT Higgs fields, we systematically studied the supersymmetry breaking scalar masses, SM fermion Yukawa coupling terms, and trilinear soft terms in the E_6 SUSY GUT model where the gauge symmetry is broken down to the SO(10)\\tm U(1) gauge symmetry, SU(3)_C\\times SU(3)_L \\times SU(3)_R gauge symmetry, SU(6)\\times SU(2)_a (a={\\rm L,R,X}) gauge symmetry, flipped SU(5) gauge symmetry etc. In addition, we considered the scalar and gaugino mass relations, which can be preserved from the GUT scale to the electroweak scale under one-loop RGE running, in the SU(3)_C\\times SU(3)_L \\times SU(3)_R model arising from the E_6 model. With such relations, we may distinguish ...

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

A new classically stable model of spontaneous compactification is investigated. D=10 dimensional Einstein-Yang-Mills SU(3) x U(1) theory compactifies to CP(3) giving SU(4) x U(1) effective D=4 theory with no tachyons. An effective SU(4) coupling constant is calculated.

W algebras in conformal quantum field theory  

International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

A new algorithm for constructing extensions of the Virasoro algebra by primary fields - so called W-algebras - is presented. With the help of REDUCE all W-algebras with one further primary field up to conformal dimension 9 were calculated. Furthermore I give an interpretation of the obtained results using fusion algebras. The algorithm could also be used for constructing extensions of the super Virasoro algebra which play an important role in superstring theory. I present two examples here. With using representation theory of Kac-Moody algebras I determine the minimal field content of the super W_3 algebra. Finally, the general coset models SU(2)_kxSU(2)_m/SU(2)_k_+_m and SU(3)_kxSU(3)_m/SU(3)_k_+m are investigated. I calculate which W-algebras are likely contained in these cosets. (orig.).

W_3-algebra constructed from the SU(3) parafermion  

International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

A construction of a W_3-algebra for the SU(3) parafermion is proposed. The details of the calculation are given, in which the Z-algebra technique is used instead of the popular free field realization. We find that the W_3-algebra is closed at level k=3, and the central charge of the underlying algebra is different from known series of Fateev-Lykyanov W-algebras; as a by-product we get a field T"("4")(z), whose conformal dimension is 4, and is null at k=3.

From Sakata Model to Goldberg-Ne'eman Quarks and Nambu QCD Phenomenology and "Right" and "Wrong" experiments  

CERN Document Server

The basic theoretical milestones were the Sakata SU(3) symmetry, the Goldberg-Ne'eman composite model with SU(3) triplets having baryon number (1/3) and the Nambu color gauge Lagrangian. The transition was led in right and wrong directions by experiments interpreted by phenomenology. A "good" experiment on $\\bar p p$ annihilation at rest showed that the Sakata model predictions disagreed with experiment. A "bad" experiment prevented the use of the Goldberg-Ne'eman triplet model to predict the existence and masses of the of the $\\Xi^*$ and $\\Omega^-$. More "good" experiments revealed the existence and mass of the $\\Xi^*$ and the $\\Omega^-$ and the absence of positive strangeness baryon resonances, thus confirming the "tenfold way". Further "good experiments" revealed the existence of the vector meson nonet, SU(3) breaking with singlet-octet mixing and the ...

Isospin-symmetry breaking effects on the strange electric and magnetic form factors of the nucleon  

Science.gov (United States)

We examine the electric and magnetic strange form factors of the nucleon in the pseudoscalar-vector SU(3) Skyrme model, with special emphasis on the effects of isospin symmetry breaking (ISB). It is found that ISB has a nontrivial effect on the strange vector form factors of the nucleon and its contribution to the nucleon strangeness is significantly larger than one might naively expect. Our calculations and discussions may be of some significance for the experimental extraction of the authentic strangeness.

New physics in $B \\to \\pi \\pi$ and $B \\to \\pi K$ decays  

CERN Document Server

We perform a combined analysis of $B \\to \\pi \\pi$ and $B \\to \\pi K$ decays with the current experimental data. Assuming SU(3) flavor symmetry and no new physics contributions to the topological amplitudes, we demonstrate that the conventional parametrization in the Standard Model (SM) does not describe the data very well, in contrast with a similar analysis based on the earlier data. It is also shown that the introduction of smaller amplitudes and reasonable SU(3) breaking parameters does not improve the fits much. Interpreting these puzzling behaviors in the SM as a new physics (NP) signal, we study various NP scenarios. We find that when a single NP amplitude dominates, the NP in the electroweak penguin sector is the most favorable. However, other NP solutions, such as NP residing in the QCD-penguin sector and color-suppressed electroweak penguin sector simultaneously, can also solve the puzzle.

Anomalous tensor magnetic moments and form factors of the proton in the self-consistent chiral quark-soliton model  

Science.gov (United States)

We investigate the form factors of the chiral-odd nucleon matrix element of the tensor current. In particular, we aim at the anomalous tensor magnetic form factors of the nucleon within the framework of the SU(3) and SU(2) chiral quark-soliton model. We consider 1/N{sub c} rotational corrections and linear effects of SU(3) symmetry breaking with the symmetry-conserving quantization employed. We first obtain the results of the anomalous tensor magnetic moments for the up and down quarks: {kappa}{sub T}{sup u}=3.56 and {kappa}{sub T}{sup d}=1.83, respectively. The strange anomalous tensor magnetic moment is yielded to be {kappa}{sub T}{sup s}=0.2{approx}-0.2, that is compatible with zero. We also calculate the corresponding form factors {kappa}{sub T}{sup q}(Q{sup 2}) up to a momentum transfer Q{sup 2{<=}}1 GeV{sup 2} at a renormalization scale of 0.36 GeV{sup 2}.

Kaon properties in (proto-)neutron star matter  

British Library Electronic Table of Contents (United Kingdom)

Abstract. The modification of kaon and antikaon properties in the interior of (proto-)neutron stars is investigated using a chiral SU(3) model. The parameters of the model are fitted to nuclear-matter saturation properties, baryon octet vacuum masses, hyperon optical potentials and low-energy kaon-nucleon scattering lengths. We study the kaon/antikaon medium modification and explore the possibility of antikaon condensation in (proto-)neutron star matter at zero as well as finite temperature/entropy and neutrino content. The effect of hyperons on kaon and antikaon optical potentials is also investigated at different stages of the neutron star evolution.

Description of odd-A nuclei in the Pt region in the interacting boson-fermion model  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

Properties of unique parity states in odd-proton (/sub 77/Ir, /sub 79/Au) and odd-neutron nuclei (/sub 78/Pt) are investigated in the framework of the interacting boson-fermion approximation model. The core (boson)-particle (fermion) interaction is represented by a quadrupole-quadrupole interaction and an exchange term, which takes into account the effects of the Pauli exclusion principle. The even-even core nucleus is described in terms of the IBA-1 hamiltonian. The change in the properties of the corresponding odd-A nuclei can be interpreted in terms of a transition of the core hamiltonian between the O(6) and SU(3) limiting cases.

Studies of the low-lying levels in /sup 192/Pt and /sup 192/Os  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

The energy level schemes of /sup 192/Os and /sup 192/Pt have been established on the basis of ..gamma..-..gamma.. coincidence studies using a dual parameter data collection system. Ge(Li) detectors were employed to study the gamma spectra produced in the E.C. and ..beta../sup -/ decays of /sup 192/Ir to /sup 192/Os and /sup 192/Pt, respectively. Thirteen new transitions and three new levels at 1146.95, 1237.35 and 1913.76 keV are suggested. Relative intensities from singles measurements, branching ratios, ..cap alpha..(K) and log ft values were calculated and multipolarities, spins and parities deduced. Comparisons are made with predictions of the Interacting Boson Model calculated on the basis of an O(6) to SU(3) transition.

Supersymmetry Breaking Scalar Masses and Trilinear Soft Terms in Generalized Minimal Supergravity  

CERN Document Server

In the generalized minimal supergravity (GmSUGRA) scenario, we systematically study the supersymmetry breaking scalar masses, Standard Model fermion Yukawa coupling terms, and trilinear soft terms in SU(5) models with the Higgs fields in the {\\bf 24} and {\\bf 75} representations, and in SO(10) models where the gauge symmetry is broken down to the Pati-Salam SU(4)_C X SU(2)_L X SU(2)_R gauge symmetry, SU(3)_C X SU(2)_L X SU(2)_R X U(1)_{B-L} gauge symmetry, George-Glashow SU(5) X U(1)' gauge symmetry, flipped SU(5) X U(1)_X gauge symmetry, and SU(3)_C X SU(2)_L X U(1)_1 X U(1)_2 gauge symmetry. Most importantly, we for the first time consider the scalar and gaugino mass relations, which can be preserved from the unification scale to the electroweak scale under one-loop renormalization group equation running, in the SU(5) models, the Pati-Salam models and flipped SU(5) X U(1)_X models arising from ...

The B-L/Electroweak Hierarchy in Smooth Heterotic Compactifications  

CERN Document Server

E8 X E8 heterotic string and M-theory, when appropriately compactified, can give rise to realistic, N=1 supersymmetric particle physics. In particular, the exact matter spectrum of the MSSM, including three right-handed neutrino supermultiplets, one per family, and one pair of Higgs-Higgs conjugate superfields is obtained by compactifying on Calabi-Yau manifolds admitting specific SU(4) vector bundles. These "heterotic standard models" have the SU(3)_{C} X SU(2)_{L} X U(1)_{Y} gauge group of the standard model augmented by an additional gauged U(1)_{B-L}. Their minimal content requires that the B-L gauge symmetry be spontaneously broken by a vacuum expectation value of at least one right-handed sneutrino. In a previous paper, we presented the results of a renormalization group analysis showing that B-L gauge symmetry is indeed radiatively broken with a B-L/electroweak hierarchy of O(10) to O(10^{2}). In this paper, we present the details of ...

Sequence of Potentials Lying Between the U(5) and X(5) Symmetries  

CERN Document Server

Starting from the original collective Hamiltonian of Bohr and separating the beta and gamma variables as in the X(5) model of Iachello, an exactly soluble model corresponding to a harmonic oscillator potential in the beta-variable (to be called X(5)-$\\beta^2$) is constructed. Furthermore, it is proved that the potentials of the form $\\beta^{2n}$ (with n being integer) provide a ``bridge'' between this new X(5)-$\\beta^2$ model (occuring for n=1) and the X(5) model (corresponding to an infinite well potential in the beta-variable, materialized for n going to infinity. Parameter-free (up to overall scale factors) predictions for spectra and B(E2) transition rates are given for the potentials $\\beta^2$, $\\beta^4$, $\\beta^6$, $\\beta^8$, corresponding to E(4)/E(2) ratios of 2.646, 2.769, 2.824, and 2.852 respectively, compared to the E(4)/E(2) ratios of 2.000 for U(5) and 2.904 for X(5). Hints about nuclei showing this behaviour, as well as about potentials ``bridging'' the X(5) ...

Charge and CP asymmetries of $B_q$ meson in unparticle physics  

CERN Document Server

Recently the D{\\O} Collaboration reported an observation of like-sign charge asymmetry (CA), which is about $3.2 \\sigma$ deviation from the standard model (SM) prediction. Inspired by the observation we investigate the scalar unparticle effects, under the color charge of $SU(3)_c$ symmetry, in the CP violation in neutral B meson oscillations as well as the dispersive and absorptive parts of $\\bar B_q\\leftrightarrow B_q$ transition, which can be related to the CA directly. In order to illustrate the peculiar properties of unparticle, our analysis is carried out in two scenarios for the right-handed section: (I) $\\lambda_R=\\lambda_L$ and $U_D^R=U_D^L$, where $\\lambda_{L,R}$ and $U_D^{L,R}$ are the couplings and flavor mixing matrix of left- and right-handed section, respectively; (II) $\\lambda_R >> \\lambda_L$ and $U_D^R$ is completely a free parameter. In scenario I we found that the wrong- and like-sign CA cannot be changed ...

Alpha particle spectroscopic strengths for levels populated in the "2"0 "2"1 "2"2Ne("6Li, d)"2"4 "2"5 "2"6Mg reactions  

International Nuclear Information System (INIS)

The "2"0 "2"1 "2"2Ne("6Li, d)"2"4 "2"5 "2"6Mg reactions have been studied at a bombarding energy of 32 MeV. Alpha particle spectroscopic strengths have been extracted for several low-lying levels by a finite-range distorted wave analysis. These are compared with theoretical predictions. The agreement is good both for relative strengths to different levels within a nucleus and for ground-state strengths relative to the "1"6O("6Li, d) result. Strengths calculated using eigenfunctions determined in large shell-model computations agree well with pure symmetry SU(3) predictions. The "2"1Ne("6Li, d) angular distributions for transitions to the ground-state band of "2"5Mg are characterized by the lower of the two L-transfers allowed for populating each level. For the 3"+(5.24 MeV) unnatural parity level in "2"4Mg, a two-step calculation gives a better account of the data than does a compound nuclear calculation. (Auth.).
