SUSY QCD Impact on Top-Pair Production Associated with a Z^0-Boson at a Photon-Photon Collider

The top-pair production in association with a Z^0-boson at a photon-photon collider is an important process in probing the coupling between top-quarks and vector boson and discovering the signature of possible new physics. We describe the impact of the complete supersymmetric QCD （SQCD） next-to-leading order （NLO） radiative corrections on this process at a polarized or unpolarized photon collider, and make a comparison between the effects of the SQCD and the standard model （SM） QCD. We investigate the dependence of the lowest-order （LO） and QCD NLO corrected cross sections in both the SM and minimal supersymmetric standard model （MSSM） on colliding energy √s in different polarized photon collision modes. The LO, SM NLO, and SQCD NLO corrected distributions of the invariant mass of tt^--pair and the transverse momenta of final Z^0-boson are presented. Our numerical results show that the pure SQCD effects in γγ →tt^- Z^0 process can be more significant in the ＋＋ polarized photon collision mode than in other collision modes, and the relative SQCD radiative correction in unpolarized photon collision mode varies from 32.09% to -1.89% when √s goes up from 500 GeV to 1.5 TeV.

Evidence for bosonic mode coupling in electron dynamics of LiFeAs superconductor

Super-high resolution laser-based angle-resolved photoemission measurements are carried out on LiFeAs superconductor to investigate its electron dynamics. Three energy scales at ~ 20 meV, ~ 34 meV, and ~ 55 meV are revealed for the first time in the electron self-energy both in the superconducting state and normal state. The ~ 20 meV and ~ 34 meV scales can be attributed to the coupling of electrons with sharp bosonic modes which are most likely phonons. These observations provide definitive evidence on the existence of mode coupling in iron-based superconductors.

Structure of Massive “Standard Model” Particles

The massive vector bosons Z o, W ± and the scalar Higgs-boson H o assumed in weak interaction theory, but also the six quarks required in strong interactions are well understood in an alternative quantum field theory of fermions and bosons: Z o and W ± as well as all quark-antiquark states (here only the tt¯state is discussed) are described by bound states with scalar coupling between their massless constituents and have a structure similar to leptons. However, the scalar Higgs-boson H o corresponds to a state with vector coupling between the elementary constituents. Similar scalar states are expected also in the mass region of the mesons ω (0.782 GeV) - Υ ( 9.46 GeV).

A model with flavor-dependent gauged U(1)B-L1×U(1)B-L2-L3 symmetry

We propose a new model with flavor-dependent gauged U(1)B-L1×U(1)B-L2-L3symmetry in addition to the flavor-blind symmetry in the Standard Model. The model contains three right-handed neutrinos to cancel gauge anomalies and several Higgs bosons to construct the measured fermion masses. We show the generic features of the model and explore its phenomenology. In particular, we discuss the current bounds on the extra gauge bosons from the K and B meson mixings as well as the LEP and LHC data, and focus on their contributions to the lepton flavor violating processes of ?i+1→?iγ(i=1,2).
