4 Inspiration Radiative fermion mass generation models have a long history 1. Georgi & Glashow (1973) - e from µ 2. Babu, Balakrishna, & Mohapatra (1990) - in Pati-Salam 3. Arkani-Hamed, Cheng, & Hall (1996) - 1st generation masses & some CKM 4. Fox & Dobrescu (2008) - up and lepton masses 5. and many more...

5 mass (GeV) t Flavor Philosophy Xing, Zhang & Zhou (2008) Not randomly distributed, even on log scale All Yukawas b τ c µ s u d e ups downs leptons Equal hierarchy between successive generations Pattern may be suggestive of a framework beyond just generating small numbers

6 Domino Mechanism work in SU(5) GUT: W H u λ ij φ 10 i 5 j all allowed coefficients (e.g. ) are λ ij O(1) φ can be H d so add no new fields to MSSM

7 Domino Mechanism work in SU(5) GUT: W H u λ ij φ 10 i 5 j all allowed coefficients (e.g. ) are λ ij O(1) φ can be H d so add no new fields to MSSM tree-level top mass may appear to violate our flavor philosophy but can be written: W H u (c i 10 i )(c j 10 j )+λ ij φ 10 i 5 j

8 Domino Mechanism work in SU(5) GUT: W H u λ ij φ 10 i 5 j all allowed coefficients (e.g. ) are λ ij O(1) φ can be H d so add no new fields to MSSM tree-level top mass may appear to violate our flavor philosophy but can be written: W H u (c i 10 i )(c j 10 j )+λ ij φ 10 i 5 j two arbitrary flavor directions: c i and λ ij these spurions break all flavor symmetries: U(3)10 U(3)5 These will generate all fermion masses (and mixings) in a hierarchical pattern

26 Split SUSY Both 5 s and 45 s have proton decay causing components through φ 10 5 so must get mass at GUT scale (could project out components, spoils unification) SM flavor structure is generated near the GUT scale

44 Experimental Signatures

45 Proton Decay W λ ij 10 i 5 j φ h (3) d QL+ h(3) d UD hd gives dim 6 proton decay easily the dominant decay mode since not Yukawa suppressed because λ is O(1) Γ 1 8π λ4 m5 p M 4 h yr λ4 ( GeV M h ) 4 potentially observable at next generation experiments (DUSEL, Hyper-K)

46 Proton Decay Predictions near mass basis: λ = λ 11 λ λ 22 λ λ 33 potentially many observable predictions: Γ ( p e + π 0) λ 4 11 Γ (p ν e π + ) λ 4 11 Γ ( p µ + π 0) λ 2 11 λ 2 12 Γ (p ν µ π + ) λ 2 11 λ 2 12 Γ ( p e + K 0) λ 2 11 λ 2 12 Γ (p ν e K + ) λ 2 11 λ 2 12 Γ ( p µ + K 0) λ 4 12 Γ (p ν µ K + ) ( λ λ 11 λ 22 ) 2 Γ (n e + π ) λ 4 11 Γ ( n ν e π 0) λ 4 11 Γ (n µ + π ) λ 2 11 λ 2 12 Γ ( n ν µ π 0) λ 2 11 λ 2 12 Γ (n e + K ) 0 Γ ( n ν e K 0) λ 2 11 λ 2 12 Γ (n µ + K ) 0 Γ ( n ν µ K 0) ( λ λ 11 λ 22 ) 2 observe flavor mechanism of SM in proton branching ratios

47 The QCD Axion + Strong CP U(1) PQ our Yukawas are forbidden by a U(1)PQ and generated when it is broken: σ i 1 H u 0 H d 0 5 i N 0 U(1)PQ has a mixed anomaly with SU(3)C and thus have a QCD axion (mix of KSVZ and DFSZ) with f M GUT this flavor mechanism thus necessarily solves the strong CP problem

48 Long-Lived Particles the axino is often the LSP, so all superpartners decay to it through dim 5, GUT-suppressed operators W α s 4π S f G αg α + α EM 4π S f F αf α in particular, the gluino: G G +ã with ( ) 3 ( TeV τ f s GeV m G ) 2

54 Summary All three generations treated identically by fundamental theory Arbitrary O(1) couplings naturally generate the hierarchical pattern (not just the small sizes) of masses for all quarks and leptons Though flavor is generated at GUT scale, many observable predictions: Novel source of SU(5) breaking effects can change b-τ unification Predicts QCD axion solves strong CP, novel proton decay, long-lived particles at BBN and LHC, Higgs mass
