Phase transition in a supersymmetric axion model
نویسنده
چکیده
In a supersymmetric axion model where the scale for both supersymmetry breaking and Peccei-Quinn symmetry breaking is around 10 GeV, we find that there is a reasonable parameter space for a strongly first order phase transition at the scale.

Light Sterile Neutrinos in the Supersymmetric U(1)′ Models and Axion Models
We propose the minimal supersymmetric sterile neutrino model (MSSNM) where the sterile neutrino masses are about 1 eV, while the active neutrino masses and the mixings among the active and sterile neutrinos are generated during late time phase transition. All the current experimental neutrino data include the LSND can be explained simultaneously, and the constraints on the sterile neutrinos fro...
متن کاملModular Inflation and the Curvaton
Supersymmetric Peccei-Quinn models which provide a suitable candidate for the curvaton field are studied. These models also solve the μ problem, while generating the Peccei-Quinn scale dynamically. The curvaton is a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson corresponding to an angular degree of freedom orthogonal to the axion. Its order parameter increases substantially following a phase transition during i...

Small size QCD instantons may spoil the axion solution to the strong CP problem if QCD is not asymptotically free at high energy scales. We examine this issue in supersymmetric models using a manifestly supersymmetric scheme to compute the axion potential induced by small size instantons. Applying this scheme for a class of illustrative models, it is found that the resulting high energy axion p...

متن کاملThe Supersymmetric Axion and Cosmology
In this lecture we review several cosmological issues associated with the axion. Axion solves the strong CP problem and is a good candidate for the dark matter. Limits, which are imposed by the value of isocurvature fluctuations fraction in the observed CMBR from WMAP data and the domain wall problem are discussed in a supersymmetric flat direction axion model. This lecture was given at XII’th ...
