9 Grand unified theories: SU(5) unify SU(3) C SU(2) L U(1) Y into SU(5): single coupling constant: g 5 SU(5) SU(3) C SU(2) L U(1) Y at Q = M GUT GeV new X µ, Y µ gauge bosons predict p-decay: τ p years experiment: τ p > years (rule out simplest models) partial matter unification d c R, ǫab L b 5 of SU(5) Q a, u c R, ec R 10 of SU(5) Charge quantization: Q(e ) = 3Q(d R )! m b 3m τ (true) doublet-triplet splitting: 5 H φ SM, H c gauge hierarchy problem: m H M GUT fine-tune 1 : Howard Baer, CIPANP meeting, San Diego, CA, May 26,

10 Grand unified theories: SO(10) unify SU(3) C SU(2) L U(1) Y into S0(10) 45 gauge bosons complete matter unification of each generation conjugate spinor reps 16 and of SU(5) all matter unified! 1 occupied by ν R SO(10) breaking M Ni (Majorana): see-saw m ν explain anomaly cancellation for SM and SU(5) still suffers from gauge hierarchy problem main idea probably right; implementation probably wrong Howard Baer, CIPANP meeting, San Diego, CA, May 26,

11 Large extra dimensions (LED or ADD) assume SM lies on 3-brane surface embedded in d = 4 + n-dim l bulk fundamental scale in d-dim s: M =? fundamental scale in 3-brane: M P = GeV compactify n-dim s on e.g. a torus MP 2 = Mn+2 V n where V n is volume of extra dim s for n > 2, then M m weak allowed! Sol n to hierarchy problem? But then why r Pl r c? Howard Baer, CIPANP meeting, San Diego, CA, May 26,

12 LED phenomenology compactification KK-excited gravitons g n µν: only g 0 µν is massless couple to matter 1/M P KK-graviton mass splitting: tiny tiny graviton emission cross-section compensated by vast number of graviton emissions possible: M P factors cancel! can see e.g. pp g + g n µν at LHC! can observe quantum gravity at colliders! also, black hole production? Howard Baer, CIPANP meeting, San Diego, CA, May 26,

14 Warped extra dimensions (Randall-Sundrum RS) assume SM and hidden branes separated in warped (AdS 5 ) spacetime warped metric: ds 2 = e 2kr cφ η µν dx µ dx ν + r 2 cdφ 2 solve Einstein eq ns in 5-d; compactify 5th dim n on an orbifold find m weak = e kr cπ M P weak scale emerges as exponential suppression of Planck scale consequence: KK-excited gravitons with weak scale coupling and TeV-scale mass splitting! can see excited graviton resonances at colliders! Howard Baer, CIPANP meeting, San Diego, CA, May 26,

15 RS phenomenology Davoudiasl, Hewett, Rizzo KK-excited gravitons: weak scale mass spacing via zeros of Bessel functions can produce RS gravitons at e + e or hadron colliders massive graviton resonances couple to all matter pairs Howard Baer, CIPANP meeting, San Diego, CA, May 26,

16 Little Higgs theories New approach to EWSB: Arkani-Hamed, Cohen, Georgi, 2001 Higgs field arises as pseudo-nambu-goldstone boson from collective symmetry breaking Symmetry quadratic divergences to m 2 H higher quad. divergences remain) cancel at 1-loop (2-loop and Natural cut-off of theory is 10 TeV to avoid little hierarchy problem All LH theories predict new particles at 1-10 TeV scale new gauge bosons A H, W ± H, W 0 H to cancel gauge boson loops in m2 H new top partner fermions T to cancel top loop in m 2 H new scalars to cancel Higgs self coupling loops precise details model-dependent: most popular: littlest Higgs with SU(5)/SO(5) Howard Baer, CIPANP meeting, San Diego, CA, May 26,

18 T-parity in Little Higgs theories (LHT) It was found that LH models tend to give large corrections to precision EW observables unless m LH 10 TeV This re-introduces fine-tunings in Higgs sector EWPOs can be saved by introducing T-parity (Cheng and Low) SM particles: t-even new GBs, scalars, some top-partners: t-odd then contributions to EWPOs only occur at loop level can allow much lighter new particle states t-odd particles produced in pairs todd particles decay to other t-odd states Lightest t-odd particle absolutely stable: DM candidate, usually A H (but see Hill+Hill anomalies paper) Howard Baer, CIPANP meeting, San Diego, CA, May 26,

21 Supersymmetry (SUSY) This symmetry is similar to non-abelian gauge symmetry except that: transformation is e iᾱq, where Q is a (Majorana) spinor generator, and α is a spinorial set of parameters with ᾱ = α γ 0 SUSY transforms bosons fermions SUSY is a spacetime symmetry: the square-root of a translation action is invariant under SUSY, but not Lagrangian (total derivative) Can construct SUSY gauge theories Can construct (softly broken) SUSY SM: MSSM Solves problem of SM scalar fields: cancellation of quadratic divergences allows for stable theories with vastly different mass scales: e.g. M weak 10 3 GeV and M GUT GeV local SUSY where α(x) spacetime dependent: supergravity and GR (but non-renormalizable; go to string theory?) Howard Baer, CIPANP meeting, San Diego, CA, May 26,
