28 Reviewing Subatomics
29 Reviewing Subatomics Neutrinos are produced in the Weak Interaction, for example Neutrinos from the earth natural radioactivity Man-made neutrinos accelerators, nuclear power plants. Astrophysical neutrinos Solar neutrinos Atmospheric neutrinos Relic neutrinos left over from the big bang.
30 Neutrino Factoids The earth receives about 40 billion neutrinos per second per cm 2 from the sun. About 100 times that amount are passing through us from the big bang. This works out to about 330 neutrinos in every cm 3 of the universe! By comparison there are about protons per cm 3 in the universe. Our body emits about 340 million neutrinos per day from 40 K. Neutrinos don t do much when passing through matter. Remember, it is very difficult to observe neutrinos.
31 Neutrino Detection The neutrino is observed by detecting the product of its interaction with matter. ν e ν μ Electron Muon
32 iclicker Question True or False: Quarks have actually been isolated and observed in the laboratory. A True B False
33 The Four Fundamental Forces
34 The Four Fundamental Forces
35 Force as an Exchange Forces cause matter to accelerate Gauge particle Produce fundamental forces
36 Unified Field Theories Unified Field Theories Fundamental forces seen as different aspects of one force Four fundamental forces may be different aspects of a single force Electroweak force Standard model Theories of Everything
37 iclicker Question How many fundamental forces are there? A 2 B 4 C 6 D 11 E 21
38 iclicker Quesiton Which of the four fundamental forces is the strongest? A strong force B weak force C gravity D electromagnetic
39 iclicker Question Which of the four fundamental forces is the weakest? A strong force B weak force C gravity D electromagnetic
40 iclicker Question True or False: The search for a theory of everything will be accomplished in my lifetime. A True B False
41 String Theory: the idea All matter consists of small onedimensional objects (strings). Strings look like particles when not resolved closely enough All particle types are different normal modes of the string.
42 String Theory: the interactions All interactions consist of the splitting and joining of these elementary strings. This is currently the best description of the scattering of gravitational waves at very high energies! Looks like General Relativity plus other interactions at low energies. No parameters: string length sets units.
43 Possible Downsides At first sight there appeared to be a number of different kinds of string theories. Open, closed, heterotic, Type I, Type IIA,... Predicts we live in 10 spacetime dimensions! Experimental update: number of (large) dimensions = 4 Very difficult to experimentally test so far. Strings are so short that once the symmetries and spectrum are gotten right, most of the details are usually also right. Calculation gets known masses right, but.. experiment m exp = theory m th =
44 D-Branes Polchinski String theory is bigger than previously thought. Normally, open strings satisfy Neumann boundary conditions, string ends move at light speed. Dirichlet boundary conditions also make sense string ends live on a surface. This surface is interpreted as a large massive object, a D- brane, in spacetime, much like a monopole.
45 Why Do This? Good Things Happen if the theory has both strings and D-branes: Previously-hidden duality symmetries emerge, with all known string theories dual to one another under these symmetries! Some weakly-interacting string theories are the duals of the strong-coupling limit of others! Led to discoveries of similar symmetries amongst ordinary particle theories. Conjecture: all known string theories are different solutions to a more fundamental (11-dimensional) theory (M Theory).
46 String Length and Gravity Arkani-Hamad, Dvali & Dimopoulos Could strings be as big as they can be: l s = l w? Non-gravitational physics is characterized by the weak scale: G F = l w2 = (10-3 fm) 2 If so, strings may be experimentally discovered tomorrow! If so, does this explain why l w is so much larger than l p = fm? ie: Why is gravity so weak? Why are stars so big? Gravity would be weak because the extra dimensions are large: If n = 2 then l s = l w requires a ~ 0.1 mm!! If n = 6 then l s = l w requires a ~ 10 5 fm, a = α effl s l pl 2/n l s
47 Intermediate-Scale Strings CB, Ibanez & Quevedo Q: Can l s and a be similar in size? A: Yes. l s / a = 0.01 works if: I: l s = (l w l p ) =10-11 fm. l w = l 2 s / l p naturally arises if supersymmetry breaks on another brane, and is transmitted to our brane by gravity. II: n = 6 extra dimensions. No heirarchy need be dialed in. Other nice things also happen if so: String axions can solve strong CP problem, neutrino masses similar to experiments, etc l pl l w α eff = l s a = 0.01 = l 2 pl 2 l s = α eff 2 l s a n
48 String Summary String theory is the only known theory where gravity and quantum mechanics co-exist at high energies. Major Lesson of the 20 th Century: Relativity and Quantum mechanics are almost inconsistent, and so together impose extremely strong self-consistency conditions. The string length is likely much longer than the Planck length. Size Matters: much better prospects for comparison with experiments. The intermediate scale is well motivated on particlephysics grounds: l s = (l w l p ) =10-11 fm. We may all be Brane bound.
49 iclicker Question I find the idea that there might be 10 or 11 dimensions: A exciting B interesting C confusing D scary E nonsense
