Hints from the Standard Model for Particle Masses and Mixings
نویسنده
چکیده
The standard model taken with a momentum space cut-off may be viewed as an effective low energy theory. The structure of it and its known parameters can give us hints for relations between these parameters. In the present investigation the Higgs problem will be discussed, the possible connection of the Higgs meson with the heavy top quark, and the geometric structure of the quark and lepton mass matrices. Invited talk given at the meeting on “What comes beyond the Standard Model?”, Bled (Slowenia), July 1998

Hints of Grand Unification in Neutrino Data ∗
There are strong indications for neutrino masses and mixings in the data on solar neutrinos , the observed deficit of muon neutrinos from the atmosphere as well as from discussions of the dark matter of the universe after COBE data. It is argued that an SO(10) grand unified theory has the right symmetry breaking properties needed to accomodate the neutrino masses and mixings suggested by these ...
متن کاملPhenomenological consequences of right-handed down squark mixings.
The mixings of d(R) quarks, hidden from view in the standard model (SM), are naturally the largest if one has an Abelian flavor symmetry. With supersymmetry (SUSY) their effects can surface via d(R) squark loops. Squark and gluino masses are at TeV scale, but they can still induce effects comparable to SM in B(d) (or B(s)) mixings, while D0 mixing could be close to recent hints from data. In ge...
متن کاملParticle Physics Implications of Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay∗
Neutrinoless double beta decay is a sensitive probe of the patterns of neutrino masses and mixings if the neutrinos are Majorana particles as well as other new physics scenarios beyond the standard model. In this talk, the present experimental lower bound on the lifetime for ββ0ν is used to constrain the neutrino mixings and set limits on the parameters of the new physics scenarios such as the ...
متن کاملNeutrinos: Windows to New Physics
After briefly reviewing how the symmetries of the Standard Model (SM) are affected by neutrino masses and mixings, I discuss how these parameters may arise from GUTs and how patterns in the neutrino sector may reflect some underlying family symmetry. Leptogenesis provides a nice example of how different physical phenomena may be connected to the same neutrino window of physics beyond the SM. I ...
متن کاملA New Ansatz for Quark and Lepton Mass Matrices *
A new ansatz for quark and lepton mass matrices is proposed in the context of supersymmetric grand unified theories. The 13 parameters describing fermion masses and mixings are determined in terms of only 6 free parameters, allowing 7 testable predictions. The values of Vus, Vcb, Vub, mu, md, ms, and mb are then predicted as a function of the 3 charged lepton masses, mc, mt, and tan β, the rati...
