Hunting for the Conformal Window
Undeniably, the imminent activity of LHC and the quest for the nature of physics beyond the standard model have raised renewed interest in the conformal and quasi-conformal behaviour of gauge field theories with matter content. Theoretically driven questions seem to now acquire a strong experimental appeal and might guide us towards a more realistic string theory to field theory connection, ori...
متن کاملConformal window and Landau singularities
A physical characterization of Landau singularities is emphasized, which should trace the lower boundary N∗ f of the conformal window in QCD and supersymmetric QCD. A natural way to disentangle “perturbative” from “non-perturbative” contributions below N∗ f is suggested. Assuming an infrared fixed point is present in the perturbative part of the QCD coupling even in some range below N∗ f leads ...
متن کاملFixing the conformal window in QCD
A physical characterization of Landau singularities is emphasized, which should trace the lower boundary N f of the conformal window in QCD and supersymmetric QCD. A natural way to disentangle “perturbative” from “non-perturbative” contributions to amplitudes below N f is suggested. Assuming an infrared fixed point persists in the perturbative part of the QCD coupling even below N f leads to th...
متن کاملTripletless Unification in the Conformal Window
A product SU(5) × Sp(4) grand unified model is proposed with no fundamental Higgs fields transforming under SU(5). Higgs doublets are instead embedded into a four dimensional representation of the Sp(4) gauge group, and hence there is no doublet-triplet splitting problem because there are no triplets. The Sp(4) group contains enough matter to lie in the conformal window, causing its gauge coupl...
متن کاملSupersymmetric dualities beyond the conformal window.
Using the superconformal (SC) indices techniques, we construct Seiberg type dualities for N=1 supersymmetric field theories outside the conformal windows. These theories are physically distinguished by the presence of chiral superfields with small or negative R charges.
