We study supersymmetric QCD in the conformal window as a laboratory for unparticle physics, and analyze couplings between the unparticle sector and the Higgs sector. These couplings can lead to the unparticle sector being pushed away from its scale invariant fixed point. We show that this implies that low energy experiments will not be able to see unparticle physics, and the best hope of seeing unparticles is in high energy collider experiments such as the Tevatron and the LHC. We also demonstrate how the breaking of scale invariance could be observed at these experiments.
我们表明,标量非粒子耦合到标准模型希格斯在重整化水平可以有一个戏剧性的影响,在打破的电弱对称性已经在树的水平。特别是人们可以得到适当的电弱标度,而不需要在拉格朗日中的希格斯质量项。通过研究混合的非粒子-希格斯传播子和谱函数,我们还展示了非粒子如何使希格斯质量偏离其标准模型值λ v ^2,并影响其他希格斯玻色子的性质。相反,我们详细研究了电弱对称破缺如何通过破坏其共形对称性和产生质量间隙来影响非粒子扇区。我们还表明,对于希格斯质量以上的差距,非粒子可以增加相当显着的希格斯宽度。
We study the contribution of the antisymmetric tensor unparticle mediation to the diphoton production rate of the Higgs boson and try to explain the discrepancy between the measured value of the decay width of the discovered new resonance and that of the standard model Higgs boson. We observe that tree level contribution of the antisymmetric unparticle mediation is a possible candidate to explain the measured value of the diphoton decay rate.
Motivated by slow-roll inflationary cosmology we study a scalar unparticle weakly coupled to a Higgs field in the broken symmetry phase. The mixing between the unparticle and the Higgs field results in a seesaw type matrix and the mixing angles feature a Mikheyev-Smirnov-Wolfenstein (MSW) effect as a consequence of the unparticle field being noncanonical. We find two (MSW) resonances for small and large spacelike momenta. The unparticlelike mode features a nearly flat potential with spinodal instabilities and a large expectation value. An effective potential for the unparticlelike field is gen…
我们提出了一个通用的框架中,希格斯和非粒子都是复合材料。其基础理论是四维、渐近自由、非超对称的含费米子物质的规范理论。我们勾勒出一个可能的统一,这两个部门在一个更高的规模类似于扩展的彩色模型。通过构造,我们的扩展是自然的,这意味着没有层次问题。非粒子扇区与复合希格斯玻色子的耦合表现为一个四费米子算符。电弱标度附近的双线性非粒子算符的标度维数在1 < dU < 3的范围内。我们调查,在不同的方式,打破规模不变性引起的电弱规模导致非粒子凝聚。后者作为一个自然的红外截止或强子尺度。我们给出了在电弱标度附近有效的低能有效理论。非粒子的希格斯混合被发现在我们的框架内被抑制。
We construct a model of an unparticle sector consisting of a supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory with the number of flavors in the Seiberg conformal window. We couple this sector to the MSSM via heavy messengers. The resulting low energy theory has a Higgs coupling to unparticles. The Higgs vev drives the hidden Seiberg sector to a new conformal fixed point. The coupling to the Higgs mediates supersymmetry breaking to the Seiberg sector, and breaks conformal invariance at a lower scale. The low energy theory contains light stable and metastable mesons. Higgs decay into this sector gives signatur…
We predict the branching ratios of the lepton flavor violating Higgs decays H^0\rightarrow e^{\pm} μ^{\pm}, H^0\rightarrow e^{\pm} τ^{\pm} and H^0\rightarrow μ^{\pm} τ^{\pm} with the assumption that lepton flavor violation is due to the unparticle mediation. Here, we consider an effective interaction which breaks the conformal invariance after the electroweak symmetry breaking and causes that unparticle becomes massive. The new interaction results in a modification of the mediating unparticle propagator and brings additional contribution to the branching ratios of the lepton flavor violating d…
An attempt is made to present the influence of the scalar unparticle on some scattering processes in the Randall - Sundum model. The contribution of the scalar unparticle on the production of Higgs - radion at high energy colliders is studied in detail. We evaluate the production cross-sections in the electron-positron ($e^{+}e^{-}$), photon-photon ($γγ$) and gluon-gluon ($gg$) collisions, which depend strongly on the collision energy $\sqrt{s}$, the scaling dimension $d_{U}$ of the unparticle operator $\mathcal{O}_{U}$ and the energy scale $Λ_{U}$. Numerical evaluation shows that the cross - …
We study the possible annihilation cross section of scalar dark matter and its coupling λ_D to the standard model Higgs in the case of the electroweak symmetry breaking driven by unparticle. Here the annihilation process occurs with the help of three intermediate scalars which appear after the mixing. By respecting the annihilation rate which is compatible with the current relic density we predict the tree level coupling λ_D. We observe that the unparticle scaling d_u plays a considerable role on the annihilation process and, therefore, on the coupling λ_D.
We consider a scenario where ultra high energy neutrinos undergo unparticle decay during its passage from its cosmological source to Earth. The idea of unparticle had been first proposed by Georgi by considering the possible existence of an unknown scale invariant sector at high energies and the unparticles in this sector manifest itself below a dimensional transmutation scale $Λ_{\cal U}$. We then explore the possible signature of such decaying neutrinos to unparticles at a square kilometer detector such as IceCube.
We study the production of the vector $U$ -unparticle stuff and a single photon in decays of a dilaton. The signals of an unparticle can be detected through the missing energy and momentum distribution carried away by $U$ once it was produced in radiative decay of a dilaton The continuous energy spectrum of the emitted photons encoding the recoil unparticle can be measured in precision studies of rare decays of the dilaton or Higgs-boson after their discoveres.

最近,人们的兴趣已经转向具有IR不动点(Λ)的有效场论的非平凡共形扇区的低能含义,表现为具有奇异性质的“非粒子”。我们重新研究了太阳中微子衰变寿命的极限对非粒子相互作用的影响。我们详细研究了基本参数空间(Λ,M),并推导出表征新物理的能量标度M的界限。我们的工作严格的框架内,共形不变性举行了低能量。我们首先假设非粒子扇区与希格斯场的耦合被抑制,并从中微子衰变为标量非粒子导出在TeV区域中的Λ的界限。这些界限对于非粒子算子的反常维数1.0 < d < 1.2的值是重要的。对于一个区域的参数空间,我们表明,边界是可比的生产率在高能量对撞机。然后我们放松我们的假设,考虑一个更自然的框架,不需要先验限制的希格斯粒子的耦合操作,并推导出在meV区域从中微子衰变到矢量非粒子与Λ的界限。IR不动点的这种低标度在各种风格的规范理论中都有相关性。
An attempt is made to present the contribution of the scalar unparticle on the Z-production cross-section at International Linear Colliders (ILC) with polarized initial beams in the Randall-Sundrum model. The cross-sections depend strongly on the polarization of $e^{-}$, $e^{+}$ initial beams, the center of mass energy $\sqrt{s} $, the scaling dimension $d_{U}$ of the unparticle operator $\mathcal{O}_{U}$ and the energy scale $Λ_{U}$. The results indicate that with the effect of the scalar propagators in the s-channel, including radion, Higgs and scalar unparticle, the cross-section for the ZZ…
Unitarity, a powerful constraint on new physics, has not always been properly accounted for in the context of hidden sectors. Feng, Rajaraman and Tu have suggested that large (pb to nb) multi-photon or multi-lepton sugnals could be generated at the LHC through the three-point functions of a conformally-invariant hidden sector (an "unparticle" sector.) Because of the conformal invariance, the kinematic distributions are calculable. However, the cross-sections for many such processes grow rapidly with energy, and at some high scale, to preserve unitarity, conformal invariance must break down. Re…
A field model for a quark and an antiquark binding is described. Quarks interact via a gauge unparticle ("ungluons"). The model is formulated in terms of Lagrangian which features the source field $S(x)$ which becomes a local pseudo-Goldstone field of conformal symmetry - the pseudodilaton mode and from which the gauge non-primary unparticle field is derived by $B_μ(x) \sim\partial_μ S(x)$. Because the conformal sector is strongly coupled, the mode $S(x)$ may be one of new states accessible at high energies. We have carried out an analysis of the important quantity that enters in the "ungluon"…
A new model of physics, with a hidden conformal sector which manifests itself as an unparticle coupling to Standard Model particles effectively through higher dimensional operators, predicts strong collider signals due to unparticle self-interactions. We perform a complete analysis of the most spectacular of these signals at the hadron collider, pp -> 4photon and pp ->2photon,2gluon. These processes can go through the three-point unparticle self interactions as well as through some s and t channel diagrams with one and/or two unparticle exchanges. We study the contributions of individual diagr…
The generic unparticle propagator may be modified in two ways. Breaking the conformal symmetry effectively adds a mass term to the propagator, while considering vacuum polarization corrections adds a width-like term. Both of these modifications result naturally from the coupling of the unparticle to standard model (SM) fields. We explore how these modifications to the propagator affect the calculation of the lepton anomalous magnetic moment using an integral approximation of the propagator that is accurate for $d\lesssim1.5$, where $d$ is the unparticle dimension. We find that for this range o…
We examine supersymmetric theories with approximately conformal sectors. Without an IR cutoff the theory has a continuum of modes, which are often referred to as "unparticles." Making use of the AdS/CFT correspondence we find that in the presence of a soft-wall, a gap in the spectrum can arise, separating the zero-modes from the continuum modes. In some cases there are also discrete massive levels in the gap. We also show that when supersymmetry is broken the superpartner of a quark or lepton may simply be a bosonic continuum above a gap. Such extensions of the standard model have novel signat…
We investigate the lepton flavor violation decays of vector mesons in the scenario of the unparticle physics by considering the constraint from $μ-e$ conversion. In unparticle physics, the predictions of LFV decays of vector mesons depend strongly on the scale dimension $d_{\mathcal{U}}$. The predictions of LFV decays of vector mesons can reach the detective sensitivity in experiment in region of $3\le d_{\mathcal{U}}\le 4$, while the prediction of $μ-e$ conversion rate can meet the experimental upper limit. For the searching of the lepton flavor violation processes of charged lepton sector in…
A conformally invariant hidden sector is considered, with a scalar operator $O$ of low dimension that couples to the electro-weak gauge bosons of the Standard Model, via terms such as $O F^{μν}F_{μν}$. By examining single photon production at LEP, we bound the strength of these interactions. We apply our results, along with those of Delgado and Strassler and of Caracciolo and Rychkov, to improve the bound on four-photon production through "unparticle self-interactions", as proposed by Feng et al. We find the maximum allowable cross-section is of order a few tens of femtobarns at the 14 TeV LHC…
We develop techniques for studying the effects of self-interactions in the conformal sector of an unparticle model. Their physics is encoded in the higher n-point functions of the conformal theory. We study inclusive processes and argue that the inclusive production of unparticle stuff in standard model processes due to the unparticle self-interactions can be decomposed using the conformal partial wave expansion and its generalizations into a sum over contributions from the production of various kinds of unparticle stuff, corresponding to different primary conformal operators. Such processes t…
We study and analyze the recent observations of the top pair production $σ(p\bar p\to t \bar t)$ at TeVatron through flavor conserving and flavor violating channels ${\it via}$ vector and tensor unparticles. The unparticle sector is considered with the possibility of being a color singlet or octet. The modified unparticle propagator is used to investigate the contribution of these unparticles to the observed $A_{FB}^{t\bar t}$ (forward backward asymmetry in top pair production) and the spin correlation at TeVatron. We have also studied the impact of the flavor violating couplings of unparticle…
