5 The Flavour of Gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
By attaching five (complex) anticommuting property coordinates to the four (real) commuting space-time ones, it is possible to accommodate all the known fundamental particles in their three generations. A general relativistic extension to space-time-property can be carried out such that the gauge fields find their place in the space-property sector and the Higgs scalars in the property-property sector. The full curvature is the sum of the gravitational curvature, the gauge field Lagrangian and the Higgs field contribution; property curvature may be linked to the cosmological term.

Quantum Gravity, Flavour Vacua and Supersymmetry
I review a novel and non-perturbative way of breaking Supersymmetry in the flavour sector of electrically neutral particles, as a result of flavour mixing in the presence of stringy quantum gravity space-time foam backgrounds that violate Lorentz and CPT symmetries. In these models, part of the mixing may itself be induced dynamically by the interactions of the flavoured particles with the spac...
متن کاملThe Effects of Rootstock on the Volatile Flavour Components of Page Mandarin [(C.Reticulata var dancy C. Paradisi var dancan) C. Clemantina] Juice and Peel
The effects of rootstock on the volatile flavour components of page mandarin juice and peel were investigated in this study. Juice flavour components were extracted by using Poly dimethyl silaxane membranes( PDMS ) and eluted by pentane dichloromethane and then analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS. Peel flavour compone...

Recent work on adding flavour to the generalized AdS/CFT correspondence is reviewed. In particular, we consider instanton configurations on two coincident D7 brane probes. These are matched to the Higgs branch of the dual field theory. In AdS 5 × S 5 , the instanton generates a flow of the meson spectrum. For non-supersymmetric gravity backgrounds, the Higgs branch is lifted by a potential, whi...
متن کاملOff - diagonal Flavour Susceptibilities from AdS / CFT
We study flavour susceptibilities in the N = 4 SU(N) super Yang-Mills plasma coupled to two quark flavours at strong coupling and large N by means of its gravity dual. The off-diagonal susceptibility is 1/N-suppressed and we compute it as a one-loop effect on the gravity side. Contrary to naive extrapolation from perturbative results, it attains a finite value in the infinite-coupling limit. Mo...
متن کاملMesons in Gauge/Gravity Duals A Review
We review recent progress in studying mesons within gauge/gravity duality, in the context of adding flavour degrees of freedom to generalizations of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Our main focus is on the ‘top-down approach’ of considering models constructed within string theory. We explain the string-theoretical constructions in detail, aiming at non-specialists. These give rise to a new way of d...
