ON THE STABILITY OF SUPERSYMMETRY IN CURVED SPACE-TIME
1990
We discuss the stability of the classical supergravity background in a simple supersymmetric model at the quantum level, showing that two different pictures emerge depending on whether the emphasis is placed on the conformal invariance or on the supersymmetry invariance of the theory.
-Poincaré supergravities from Lie algebra expansions
2012
Abstract We use the expansion of superalgebras procedure (summarized in the text) to derive Chern–Simons (CS) actions for the ( p , q ) -Poincare supergravities in three-dimensional spacetimes. After deriving the action for the ( p , 0 ) -Poincare supergravity as a CS theory for the expansion osp ( p | 2 ; R ) ( 2 , 1 ) of osp ( p | 2 ; R ) , we find the general ( p , q ) -Poincare superalgebras and their associated D = 3 supergravity actions as CS gauge theories from an expansion of the simple osp ( p + q | 2 , R ) superalgebras, namely osp ( p + q | 2 , R ) ( 2 , 1 , 2 ) .
Inclusive Search for Squark and Gluino Production inpp¯Collisions ats=1.96 TeV
2009
We report on a search for inclusive production of squarks and gluinos in p{bar p} collisions at {radical}s = 1.96 TeV, in events with large missing transverse energy and multiple jets of hadrons in the final state. The study uses a CDF Run II data sample corresponding to 2 fb-1 of integrated luminosity. The data are in good agreement with the standard model predictions, giving no evidence for any squark or gluino component. In an R-parity conserving minimal supergravity scenario with A{sub 0} = 0, mu < 0 and tan beta = 5, 95% C.L. upper limits on the production cross sections in the range between 0.1 pb and 1 pb are obtained, depending on the squark and gluino masses considered. For gluino …
Search for Supersymmetry inpp¯Collisions ats=1.96 TeVUsing the Trilepton Signature for Chargino-Neutralino Production
2008
We use the three lepton and missing energy trilepton signature to search for chargino-neutralino production with 2.0 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity collected by the CDF II experiment at the Tevatron p (p) over bar collider. We expect an excess of approximately 11 supersymmetric events for a choice of parameters of the mSUGRA model, but our observation of 7 events is consistent with the standard model expectation of 6.4 events. We constrain the mSUGRA model of supersymmetry and rule out chargino masses up to 145 GeV/c(2) for a specific choice of parameters.
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.
Search for Gluinos in Events with Two Same-Sign Leptons, Jets, and Missing Transverse Momentum with the ATLAS Detector in Collisions at
2012
A search is presented for gluinos decaying via the supersymmetric partner of the top quark using events with two same-sign leptons, jets, and missing transverse momentum. The analysis is performed ...
Unifying vectors and matrices of different dimensions through nonlinear embeddings
2020
Complex systems may morph between structures with different dimensionality and degrees of freedom. As a tool for their modelling, nonlinear embeddings are introduced that encompass objects with different dimensionality as a continuous parameter $\kappa \in \mathbb{R}$ is being varied, thus allowing the unification of vectors, matrices and tensors in single mathematical structures. This technique is applied to construct warped models in the passage from supergravity in 10 or 11-dimensional spacetimes to 4-dimensional ones. We also show how nonlinear embeddings can be used to connect cellular automata (CAs) to coupled map lattices (CMLs) and to nonlinear partial differential equations, derivi…
Minimal Supergravity Scalar Neutrino Dark Matter and Inverse Seesaw Neutrino Masses
2008
We show that within the inverse seesaw mechanism for generating neutrino masses minimal supergravity is more likely to have a sneutrino as the lightest superparticle than the conventional neutralino. We also demonstrate that such schemes naturally reconcile the small neutrino masses with the correct relic sneutrino dark matter abundance and accessible direct detection rates in nuclear recoil experiments.
