Abstract:

The long-awaited Higgs particle H around 125 GeV has been observed at the LHC. Interpreting it as the Standard Model Higgs boson and if there is no new physics between electroweak and Planck scale, we then do not have a stable vacuum. Here, we give a brief review of the electroweak vacuum stability and some related theoretical issues in the Standard Model. Possible ways to save the stability are also discussed.

We study the vacuum alignment in the top mode Standard Model in which the electroweak symmetry breaking is triggered by the top quark condensation. Including the QCD effects through the Cornwall-Jackiw-Tomboulis effective potential, we establish that the correct electroweak symmetry breaking SU (2)L × U (1)Y → U (1) em occurs in this model in 1/N leading and improved ladder approximation.

Abstract:

We present a broad range of Standard Model measurements performed in proton-proton collisions at the LHC on a variety of topics [Formula: see text]jets production and ratios, the electroweak multi-boson production, [Formula: see text] heavy flavor decay production, jet production, photon physics, the Standard Model soft QCD and diffractive physics. The latest public results from ATLAS experiment are obtained at the center-of-mass energy of both 7 TeV and 8 TeV, which covers total cross sections, fiducial cross sections, differential cross sections wherever available and comparison with Leading-Order/Next-to-Leading-Order/Next-to-Next-to-Leading-Order theory predictions. These measurements provide important tests for perturbative QCD, electroweak multi-boson interactions, Electroweak Symmetry Breaking over a broad kinematic range and constraints for PDFs. Model-independent new physics searches are also performed by probing anomalous gauge bosons couplings using effective Lagrangian or effective field theory formalism.

Abstract:

We calculate the oblique electroweak corrections and confront them with the experiments in a composite Higgs version of the standard model. A vector-like weak doublet and a singlet fermion are added to the standard model without elementary Higgs. Due to quartic coupling, there is a mixing between the components of the new fields triggering electroweak symmetry breaking. The Peskin–Takeuchi S and T electroweak parameters are presented. The new sector of vector-like fermions is slightly constrained, T gives an upper bound on the mixing angle of the new fermions, which is already constrained by self-consistent gap-equations. S gives no constraints on the masses. This extension can give a positive contribution to T, allowing for a heavy Higgs boson in electroweak precision tests of the Standard Model.

The measurements of electroweak sector of the Standard Model are presented, including most recent results from LEP, Tevatron and HERA colliders. The robustness of the Standard Model is illustrated with the precision measurements, the electroweak fits and the comparisons to the results obtained from low energy experiments. The status of the measurements of the W boson properties and rare production processes involving weak bosons at colliders is examined, together with the measurements of the electroweak parameters in ep collisions.

Abstract:

We go beyond the Standard Model guided by presymmetry, the discrete electroweak quark–lepton symmetry hidden by topological effects which explain quark fractional charges as in condensed matter physics. We show that partners of the particles of the Standard Model and the discrete symmetry associated with this partnership appear as manifestations of a residual presymmetry in the sense of Ekstein and its extension from matter to forces. This duplication of the spectrum of the Standard Model keeps spin and comes nondegenerated about the TeV scale.

Full text

Abstract:

The Standard Model of electroweak interactions is shown to include a gauge theory for the observed scalar and pseudoscalar mesons. This is done by exploiting the consequences of embedding the SU(2)L×U(1) group into the chiral group of strong interactions and by explicitly considering as composite the Higgs boson and its three companions inside the standard scalar four-plet. No extra scale of interaction is needed. Quantizing by the Feynman path integral reveals how, in the “Nambu-Jona-Lasinio approximation,” the quarks and the Higgs boson become unobservable, and the theory anomaly-free. Nevertheless, the “anomalous” couplings of the pseudoscalar mesons to gauge fields spring again from the constraints associated with their compositeness itself. This work is the complement of Ref. 1, where the leptonic sector was shown to be compatible with a purely vectorial theory and, consequently, to be also anomaly-free. The bond between quarks and leptons loosens.

Abstract:

We speculate on a version of the "standard" model of the electroweak and strong interactions coupled to gravity and equipped with a spontaneously broken, anomalous, conformal gauge symmetry. The scalar sector is virtually absent in the minimal model but in the general case it shows up in the form of a nonlinear harmonic map Lagrangian. A Euclidean approach to the cosmological constant problem is also addressed in this framework.

Abstract:

We construct a “fully ununified” electroweak model in which the quarks and leptons transform under separate SU (2) L ⊗ U (1)Y groups. There are two charged and three massive neutral gauge bosons, the lightest of which are similar to the standard model particles. Anomaly cancellation does not lead to any tree level flavor changing neutral currents except in the neutrino sector. A variant that naturally leads to a hierarchy in the Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements is proposed.

Abstract:

A coupling-constant definition is given based on the compositeness property of some particle states with respect to the elementary states of other particles. It is applied in the context of the vector-spin-1/2-particle interaction vertices of a field theory, and the standard model. The definition reproduces Weinberg's angle in a grand-unified theory. One obtains coupling values close to the experimental ones for appropriate configurations of the standard-model vector particles, at the unification scale within grand-unified models, and at the electroweak breaking scale.

Abstract:

Beginning from an effective theory in eight dimensions, in Ref. 1, Macias, Camacho and Matos proposed an effective model for the electroweak part of the Standard Model of particles in curved spacetime. Using this model, we investigate the cosmological consequences of the electroweak interaction in the early universe. We use the approximation that, near the Planck epoch, the Yang–Mills fields behave like a perfect fluid. Then we recover the field equations of inflationary cosmology, with the Higgs field directly related to the inflaton. We present some qualitative discussion about this and analyze the behavior of isospin space using some known exact solutions.

Full text

Abstract:

Extending the Standard Model with sterile (“right-handed”) neutrinos is one of the best motivated ways to account for the observed neutrino masses. We discuss the expected sensitivity of the Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) for testing such extensions. An interesting scenario is given by symmetry protected seesaw models, which theoretically allow for sterile neutrino masses around the electroweak scale with up to order one mixings with the active (SM) neutrinos. When the masses of the sterile neutrinos are well above the electroweak scale, they affect precision data via effective non-unitarity of the leptonic mixing matrix in a model independent way. The expected improvement of the electroweak precision observables from the CEPC may allow to test mixings between active and sterile neutrinos down to [Formula: see text] (using currently discussed CEPC performance parameters). For sterile neutrinos with masses around the electroweak scale, direct searches are possible. Such tests are given by the search for sterile neutrino decays at the [Formula: see text] pole, by deviations from the SM cross section for four leptons at and beyond the [Formula: see text] threshold, and by Higgs boson production and decays. The expected sensitivities at the CEPC could reach down to mixings as small as [Formula: see text].

Abstract:

We attempt to go beyond the standard electroweak theory by replacing SU (2) with its q-deformation: SU q(2). This step introduces new degrees of freedom that we interpret as indicative of nonlocality and as a possible basis for a solitonic model of the elementary particles. The solitons are conjectured to be knotted flux tubes labeled by the irreducible representations of SU q(2), an algebra which is not only closely related to the standard theory but also plays an underlying role in the description of knots. Each of the four families of elementary fermions is conjectured to be represented by one of the four possible trefoils. The three individual fermions belonging to any family are then assumed to occupy the three lowest states in the excitation spectrum of the trefoil for that family. One finds a not unreasonable variation of q among the lepton and quark families. The model in its present form predicts a fourth generation of fermions as well as a neutrino mass spectrum.
