Theories in More than Four Dimensions ∗
Particle physics models where there are large hidden extra dimensions are currently on the focus of an intense activity. The main reason is that these large extra dimensions may come with a TeV scale for quantum gravity (or string theory) which leads to a plethora of new observable phenomena in colliders as well in other areas of particle physics. Those new dimensions could be as large as milli...
متن کاملGauge Theories in Four Dimensions
We study a dynamically broken U (1) L gauge theory endowed with a composite scalar doublet (one scalar and one pseudoscalar); its Lagrangian only differs from that of an abelian 'Standard Model' by the addition of a derivative coupling between a Wess-Zumino field, linked to the previous scalars, and the fermionic current. Yet, in the Feynman path integral, the non independence of the fermionic ...
متن کاملOn Conformal Field Theories in Four Dimensions
Extending recent work of Kachru and Silverstein, we consider “orbifolds” of 4-dimensional N = 4 SU(n) super-Yang-Mills theories with respect to discrete subgroups of the SU(4) R-symmetry which act nontrivially on the gauge group. We show that for every discrete subgroup of SU(4) there is a canonical choice of imbedding of the discrete group in the gauge group which leads to theories with a vani...
متن کاملAlternative Gravitational Theories in Four Dimensions
We argue that from the point of view of gauge theory and of an appropriate interpretation of the interferometer experiments with matter waves in a gravitational field, the EinsteinCartan theory is the best theory of gravity available. Alternative viable theories are general relativity and a certain teleparallelism model. Objections of Ohanian & Ruffini against the Einstein-Cartan theory are dis...
متن کاملPositioning Techniques for Fewer than Four GPS Satellites
Global Navigation Satellites Systems (GNSS) such as the Global Positioning Systems (GPS) are well known for their ability to obtain position regardless of where in the world they operate. In order to function properly, GPS generally requires that a minimum of 4 satellite signals be present at any given time, in order to solve for three dimensions, and local receiver time offset. This minimum re...
