Unparticle physics at the photon collider
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, a conceptually new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM), unparticle, has been proposed, where a hidden conformal sector is coupled to the SM sector through higher dimensional operators. In this setup, we investigate unparticle physics at the photon collider, in particular, unparticle effects on the γγ → γγ process. Since this process occurs at loop level in the SM, the unparticle effects can be significant even if the cutoff scale is very high. In fact, we find that the unparticle effects cause sizable deviations from the SM results. The scaling dimension of the unparticle dU reflects the dependence of the cross section on the final state photon invariant mass, so that precision measurements of this dependence may reveal the scaling dimension of the unparticle.

Theories with extra dimensions have gained much interest in recent years as candidates for a possible extension of the SM. The observation of large extra dimensions through real graviton emission is one of the most popular related new phenomena. The main experimental signatures from graviton emission are production of single jet and single photon events, which have been studied in great detail....
متن کاملUnparticle Physics on Cosmic Ray Photon and E
We study the effects of unparticle physics on the cosmic ray photon and e, including on the pair production (PP) and elastic scattering (ES) of cosmic ray photon off various background radiations, and on the inverse Compton scattering of cosmic ray e with cosmic radiations. We compute the spin-averaged amplitudes squared of three processes and find that the advent of unparticle will never signi...

متن کاملUnparticle Physics And Gauge Coupling Unification
Unparticle physics from a hidden conformal sector can alter the evolution of the Standard Model (SM) gauge couplings via TeV scale threshold corrections. We discuss how this may lead to gauge coupling unification at MGUT ≈ 2 × 10 15 GeV – 5 × 10 GeV without introducing new particles in the SM sector. 1 On leave of absence from: Andronikashvili Institute of Physics, GAS, 380077 Tbilisi, Georgia....
