Post-LHC8 supersymmetry benchmark points for ILC physics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reevaluate the performance of supersymmetry at the International Linear Collider (ILC) in light of the first two years of serious data taking at the LHC.

Lepto-Axiogenesis

TL;DR: In this article, a baryogenenesis mechanism was proposed that uses a rotating condensate of a Peccei-Quinn (PQ) symmetry breaking field and the dimension-five operator that gives Majorana neutrino masses.

Heavy quarkonium properties from Cornell potential using variational method and supersymmetric quantum mechanics

TL;DR: In this paper, the eigenvalues, eigenfunctions and wave functions at the origin of the Cornell potential were calculated using the variational method and supersymmetric quantum mechanics.

NMSSM interpretations of the observed Higgs signal

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) as a well-motivated theoretical framework with a sufficiently rich Higgs phenomenology to address this question, making use of the public tools HiggsBounds and HiggsSignals in order to take into account comprehensive experimental information on both the observed signal and on the existing limits from Higgs searches at LEP, the TeVatron and the LHC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brane-worlds pseudo-Goldstinos

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider a space-time with extra dimensions containing sectors, branes and bulk, that communicate only through gravitational interactions, and they show that certain combinations of the latter states turn out to be true would-be Goldstinos, eaten by the gravitinos.

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.
