Light Stop Decays: Implications for LHC Searches

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the branching ratios of the lightest stop and its four-body decay in the low-mass region of the LHC and found that branching ratios can deviate significantly from one in large parts of the allowed parameter range.

From Classical Nonlinear Integrable Systems to Quantum Shortcuts to Adiabaticity

TL;DR: The time-dependent Schrödinger equation that is reduced to a classical nonlinear integrable equation is solved using shortcuts to adiabaticity and the counterdiabatic term is obtained exactly.

Approximate R-symmetries and the mu term

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of approximate U(1)R symmetries for the understanding of hierarchies in Nature is discussed, and various examples in field theory and string-derived models are presented.

- 15 Mar 1990 - 
TL;DR: The light scalar Higgs boson h and the pseudoscalar h and A of the minimal supersymmetric standard model have been searched for in the processes e+e−→hff and e+ e−→ hA using data collected by ALEPH at the LEP e−e− collider, with center of mass energies at and near the Z peak as mentioned in this paper.

Chiral-symmetry breakdown in large-N chromodynamics

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that in the limit of a large number of colors, under reasonable assumptions, this symmetry group must spontaneously break down to diagonal σ(n) under chiral conditions.

On constrained instantons

TL;DR: In this article, a simple method is presented for doing systematic constrained instanton calculations in models such as φ4 or Higgs theories where the presence of a mass term prevents the existence of a classical solution.
