Systematic Study of Horizontal Gauge Theories
1995
We analyze all the possible continuous horizontal gauge groups G_H in relation with their possibility to explain m_b<<m_t. We assume that the only effective fermionic degrees of freedom correspond to the known fermions but allow the possibility of adding a right handed neutrino to each family. We assume that the Higgs fields which generate masses for these fermions, trough renormalizable Yukawa couplings, transform as an irreducible representation of SU(3)_c\otimesSU(2)_L\otimesU(1)_Y\otimesG_H. Under these assumptions we find two U(1)_H or U(1)_{H1}\otimesU(1)_{H2} models free of anomalies and able to guarantee that only the top has a renormalizable mass-generating Yukawa coupling.
Lepton hadron angular correlations in semileptonic ? decays
1994
We studyT-odd triple momentum correlations in exclusive semileptonic ∋-decays into three pseudoscalar mesons. We define asymmetry ratios that measure theseT-odd correlations and show how to separate the unitarity contribution from the trueCP-violating contributions. TheCP-violating contributions to the asymmetry ratios would have to come from new non-Standard Model sources as theCP-violating Standard Model contributions to the asymmetry ratios are zero. We discuss two extensions of the Standard Model that give rise to nonvanishingCP-violating triple momentum correlations, namely a left-right symmetric model and a multi Higgs boson model. Numerical results on triple momentum correlations are…
Higgs decay into two photons in a warped extra dimension
2014
A detailed five-dimensional calculation of the Higgs-boson decay into two photons is performed in both the minimal and the custodially protected Randall–Sundrum (RS) model, where the Standard Model (SM) fields propagate in the bulk and the scalar sector lives on or near the IR brane. It is explicitly shown that the \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$R_\xi $$\end{document}Rξ gauge invariance of the sum of diagrams involving bosonic fields in the SM also applies to the case of these RS scenarios.

Spontaneous breakdown of CP in left right symmetric models
1997
We show that it is possible to obtain spontaneous CP violation in the minimal SU(2)L × SU(2)R × U(1)B -L, i.e. in a left right symmetric model containing a bidoublet and two triplets in the scalar sector. For this to be a natural scenario, the non-diagonal quartic couplings between the two scalar triplets and the bidoublet play a fundamental role. We analyze the corresponding Higgs spectrum, the suppression of FCNC’s and the manifestation of the spontaneous CP phase in the electric dipole moment of the electron.
New Electroweak Formulation Fundamentally Accounting for the Effect Known as “Maximal Parity-Violation”
2006
The electroweak scheme is wholly recast, in the framework of a relativistic quantum field formalism being a covariant fermion–antifermion extension of the usual one for massive spin- $$\frac{1}{2}$$ point fermions. The new formalism is able to reread the “maximal P-violation” effect in a way restoring P and C symmetries themselves: it provides a natural “chiral field” approach, which gives evidence of the existence of a pseudoscalar (extra) charge variety anticommuting with the scalar (ordinary) one and just underlying the “maximally P-violating” phenomenology. Its zero-mass limit leads to a strict “chiral” particle theory, which remodels any massless spin- $$\frac{1}{2}$$ fermion and corre…
Strongly Coupled Models with a Higgs-like Boson
2013
Considering the one-loop calculation of the oblique S and T parameters, we have presented a study of the viability of strongly-coupled scenarios of electroweak symmetry breaking with a light Higgs-like boson. The calculation has been done by using an effective Lagrangian, being short-distance constraints and dispersive relations the main ingredients of the estimation. Contrary to a widely spread believe, we have demonstrated that strongly coupled electroweak models with massive resonances are not in conflict with experimental constraints on these parameters and the recently observed Higgs-like resonance. So there is room for these models, but they are stringently constrained. The vector and…
Structure and prospects of the simplest SO(10) GUTs
2012
We recapitulate the latest results on the class of the simplest SO(10) grand unified models in which the GUT-scale symmetry breaking is triggered by an adjoint Higgs representation. We argue that the minimal survival approximation traditionally used in the GUT- and seesaw-scale estimates tends to be blind to very interesting parts of the parameter space in which some of the intermediate-scale states necessary for non-supersymmetric unification of the SM gauge couplings can be as light as to leave their imprints in the TeV domain. The stringent minimal-survival-based estimates of the B-L scale are shown to be relaxed by as much as four orders of magnitude, thus admitting for a consistent imp…

R-Parity Breaking in Minimal Supergravity
1999
We consider the Minimal Supergravity Model with universality of scalar and gaugino masses plus an extra bilinear term in the superpotential which breaks R-Parity and lepton number. We explicitly check the consistency of this model with the radiative breaking of the electroweak symmetry. A neutrino mass is radiatively induced, and large Higgs-Lepton mixings are compatible with its experimental bound. We also study briefly the lightest Higgs mass. This one-parameter extension of SUGRA-MSSM is the simplest way of introducing R-parity violation.
Charged Higgs signals in tt¯H searches
2017
New scalars from an extended Higgs sector could have weak scale masses and still have escaped detection. In a type I two Higgs doublet model, for instance, even the charged Higgs can be lighter than the top quark. Because electroweak production of these scalars is modest, the greatest opportunity for their detection might come from rare top decays. For mass hierarchies of the type ${m}_{t}g{m}_{{H}^{+}}g{m}_{{A}^{0},{H}^{0}}$, the natural signal can arise from top quark pair production, followed by the decay chain $t\ensuremath{\rightarrow}b{H}^{+}$, ${H}^{+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{W}^{+(*)}{\ensuremath{\phi}}^{0}$, ${\ensuremath{\phi}}^{0}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}b\overline{b},{\ensuremath…
