Large top mixing from extra dimensions
نویسنده
چکیده
Fermion mixing is conveniently described using the effective Lagrangian formalism. We apply this approach to study top mixing in models with an infinite tower of Kaluza-Klein fermion excitations. In the Randall-Sundrum background with a boundary Higgs and phenomenologically viable values of the model parameters, the only effect eventually observable is the loss of universality of the top couplings. Their deviation from the SM predictions can be up to 4% if the five-dimensional Yukawa couplings times the AdS5 curvature scale are ≤ 10.

On fermion mass hierarchy with extra dimensions
Recently, various phenomenological implications of the existence of extra spacetime dimensions have been investigated. In this letter, we construct a model with realistic fermion mass hierarchy with (large) extra dimensions beyond the usual four dimensions. In this model, it is assumed that some matter fields live in the bulk and the others are confined on our four dimensional wall. It can natu...
متن کاملOne universal extra dimension in Pythia
The Universal Extra Dimensions model has been implemented in the PYTHIA generator from version 6.4.18 onwards, in its minimal formulation with one TeV sized extra dimension. The additional possibility of gravity-mediated decays, through a variable number of eV sized extra dimensions into which only gravity extends, is also available. The implementation covers the lowest lying Kaluza-Klein (KK) ...
متن کاملThe Use of Nuclear β-decay as a Test of Bulk Neutrinos in Extra Dimensions
Theories which include neutrinos in large extra dimensions can be constrained by nuclear beta decay experiments. We examine universality of β decay strengths of Fermi transitions. From this we find that the extra dimensional Yukawa coupling for a higher dimensional scale of 10 TeV, and two extra dimensions can be constrained to y < ∼ 1. Kinematic implications are also discussed. In particular, ...
متن کاملDeconstruction and Bilarge Neutrino Mixing
We present a model for lepton masses and mixing angles using the deconstruction setup, based on a non-Abelian flavor symmetry which is a split extension of the Klein group Z2 × Z2. The symmetries enforce an approximately maximal atmospheric mixing angle θ23, a nearly vanishing reactor mixing angle θ13, and the hierarchy of charged lepton masses. The charged lepton mass spectrum emerges from the...
متن کاملEffective Field Theory of a Locally Noncommutative Space-Time and Extra Dimensions
We assume that the noncommutativity starts to be visible continuously from a scale ΛNC . According to this assumption, a two-loop effective action is derived for noncommutative φ4 and φ3 theories from a Wilsonian point of view. We show that these effective theories are free of UV/IR mixing phenomena. We also investigate the positivity constraint on coefficients of higher dimension operators pre...
