Low-energy constraints from unification of matter multiplets
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the low-energy consequences of the mass and mixing angle relations in grand unified theories (GUT), which follow from an assumption that some quarks and leptons are placed in the same GUT multiplets. This assumption is a simple extension of that for the well-known bottom/tau mass ratio, which is one of the most successful predictions of grand unification of matter multiplets. We show that imposing the GUT relations leads naturally to a limited parameter space from the large lepton mixing between the second and third generations.

Quark singlets: Implications and constraints.
Quarks whose leftand right-handed chiral components are both singlets with respect to the SU(2) weak-isospin gauge group, offer interesting physics possibilities beyond the Standard Model (SM) already studied in many contexts. We here address some further aspects. We first collect and update the constraints from present data on their masses and mixings with conventional quarks. We discuss possi...
متن کاملUNIVERSITY OF GLASGOW SCHOOL OF PHYSICS AND ASTRONOMY PARTICLE PHYSICS THEORY GROUP Grand Unification Phenomenology at the LHC and Beyond
We investigate models of supersymmetric grand unification based on the gauge groups SU(5), SO(10) and E6, as well as in a class of orbifolds inspired by four dimensional Strings. We follow a stepwise analysis starting our journey with a revisit to the Standard Model and commenting on major issues that are motivation for new physics. We then introduce supersymmetry and discuss the Minimal Supers...
متن کاملSplit Multiplets, Coupling Unification and Extra Dimension
We study a gauge coupling unification scenario based on a nonsupersymmetric 5-dimensional model. Through an orbifold compactification, we obtain the Standard Model with split multiplets on a 4-dimensional wall, which is compatible with a grand unification. The Standard Model (SM) has been established as an effective theory below the weak scale. One of intriguing trials beyond the SM is to unify...
متن کاملPartly Supersymmetric Grand Unification
It is shown how grand unification can occur in models which are partly supersymmetric. The particle states which are composite do not contribute to the running of gauge couplings above the compositeness scale, while the elementary states contribute the usual large logarithmns. This introduces a new differential running contribution to the gauge couplings from partly composite SU(5) matter multi...
متن کاملCoupling Constant and Yukawa Coupling Unifications: Uncertainties and Constraints
The status of coupling constant unification (with and without a unification of Yukawa couplings) is discussed. Uncertainties associated with the input coupling constants, mb and mt, threshold corrections at the low and high scale, and possible nonrenormalizable operators are described and a discrepancy between effective and physical scales is pointed out. Theoretical uncertainties in the predic...
