TLDR

The Minimal Composite Higgs Model

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a composite Higgs in the framework of a five-dimensional AdS theory, where electroweak symmetry is broken dynamically via top loop effects, all flavour problems are solved, and contributions to electroweak precision observables are below experimental bounds.

The Search for Heavy Majorana Neutrinos

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that in the presence of Majorana neutrinos in the mass range of ∼ 100 MeV to 5 GeV, the rates for these processes would be enhanced due to their resonant contribution.
Journal ArticleDOI

RS1, custodial isospin and precision tests

TL;DR: In this article, the electroweak constraints within a RS1 model with gauge fields and fermions in the bulk were studied, and complete models were constructed for solving the hierarchy problem, without supersymmetry or large hierarchies in the fundamental couplings.

Fermion Masses, Mixings and Proton Decay in a Randall-Sundrum Model

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider a Randall-Sundrum model in which the Standard Model fermions and gauge bosons correspond to bulk fields and show how the observed charged fermion masses and CKM mixings can be explained, without introducing hierarchical Yukawa couplings.

Large Mass Hierarchy from a Small Extra Dimension

TL;DR: In this paper, the weak scale is generated from the Planck scale through an exponential hierarchy, but this exponential arises not from gauge interactions but from the background metric, which is a slice of spacetime.

An Alternative to compactification

TL;DR: In this paper, a single 3-brane embedded in five dimensions was shown to reproduce four-dimensional Newtonian and general relativistic gravity to more than adequate precision, even without a gap in the Kaluza-Klein spectrum.

Quantum Fields in Curved Space

N. D. Birrell, +1 more
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the subject of gravitational effects in quantum field theory can be found in this paper, where special emphasis is given to the Hawking black hole evaporation effect, and to particle creation processes in the early universe.

Evidence for oscillation of atmospheric neutrinos

Y. Fukuda, +124 more
Abstract: We present an analysis of atmospheric neutrino data from a 33.0 kton yr (535-day) exposure of the Super-Kamiokande detector. The data exhibit a zenith angle dependent deficit of muon neutrinos which is inconsistent with expectations based on calculations of the atmospheric neutrino flux. Experimental biases and uncertainties in the prediction of neutrino fluxes and cross sections are unable to explain our observation. The data are consistent, however, with two-flavor ${\ensuremath{ u}}_{\ensuremath{\mu}}\ensuremath{\leftrightarrow}{\ensuremath{ u}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}$ oscillations with ${sin}^{2}2\ensuremath{\theta}g0.82$ and $5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}4}l\ensuremath{\Delta}{m}^{2}l6\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}1{0}^{\ensuremath{-}3}\mathrm{eV}{}^{2}$ at 90% confidence level.

Solitons with Fermion Number 1/2

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the existence of a non-degenerate, isolated, zero-energy, $c$-number solution of the Dirac equation implies that the soliton is a degenerate doublet with Fermi number.
