Scale invariant extension of the standard model with a strongly interacting hidden sector.

چکیده
We present a scale invariant extension of the standard model with a new QCD-like strong interaction in the hidden sector. A scale Λ(H) is dynamically generated in the hidden sector by dimensional transmutation, and chiral symmetry breaking occurs in the hidden sector. This scale is transmitted to the SM sector by a real singlet scalar messenger S and can trigger electroweak symmetry breaking. Thus all the mass scales in this model arise from the hidden sector scale Λ(H), which has quantum mechanical origin. Furthermore, the lightest hadrons in the hidden sector are stable by the flavor conservation of the hidden sector strong interaction, and could be the cold dark matter (CDM). We study collider phenomenology, relic density, and direct detection rates of the CDM of this model.

Topologically Stable Z - Strings in the Supersymmetric Standard Model
We show that the minimal supergravity extension of the standard model automatically contains topologically stable electroweak strings if the hidden sector is invariant under the exact R-symmetry. These defects appear in the form of the semiglobal R-strings, which necessarily carry Z-flux inside their core. This result is independent from the particular structure of the hidden sector. Discussed ...
متن کاملObserving The Hidden Sector
We study the effects of renormalization due to hidden-sector dynamics on observable soft supersymmetry-breaking parameters in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM), under various hypotheses about their universality at a high input scale. We show that hidden-sector renormalization effects may induce the spurious appearance of unification of the scalar masses at some l...
متن کاملStabilized Singlets in Supergravity as a Source of the μ-parameter
Within the context of supergravity-coupled supersymmetry, fields which are gauge and global singlets are usually considered anathema. Their vacuum expectation values are shifted by quadratically divergent tadpole diagrams which are cutoff at the Planck scale, destabilizing the classical potential and driving the singlet field to large values. We demonstrate a new and generic mechanism which sta...
متن کاملA Minimal Spontaneously Broken Hidden Sector and its Impact on Higgs Boson Physics at the Large Hadron Collider
Little experimental data bears on the question of whether there is a spontaneously broken hidden sector that has no Standard Model quantum numbers. Here we discuss the prospects of finding evidence for such a hidden sector through renormalizable interactions of the Standard Model Higgs boson with a Higgs boson of the hidden sector. We find that the lightest Higgs boson in this scenario has smal...
متن کاملStrongly-interacting Fermions from a higher-dimensional Unified Gauge Theory
The method of coset-space dimensional reduction is employed in order to proceed from a gauged E8 × E ′ 8 unified theory defined in 10 dimensions to 4 dimensions. The resulting theory comprises the Standard Model along with a strongly-interacting fermion sector which breaks the electroweak symmetry dynamically at the right scale. e-mail:[email protected] e-mail:[email protected]
