v 1 1 9 A ug 1 99 9 SWAT / 227 The Dirac Sea Contribution To The Energy Of An Electroweak String
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a systematic determination of the order ¯ h fermionic energy shift when an electroweak string is perturbed. We show that the combined effect of zero modes, bound states and continuum states is to lower the total fermionic ground state energy of the string when the Higgs instability of the string is excited. The effect of the Dirac sea is thus to destabilise the string. However, this effect can be offset by populating positive energy states. Fermions enhance the stability of an electroweak string with sufficiently populated fermionic bound states.

If supersymmetry is spontaneously broken at a low energy scale then the resulting gravitino will be very light. The interaction strength of the longitudinal components of such a light gravitino to e − ẽ pair then becomes comparable to that of electroweak interactions. If such a light gravitino is present it would significantly modify the crosssection for eLe − R → ẽLẽR from its MSSM value. Prec...

A review is given of recent developments in the physics of flavor. Current constraints on the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix are discussed and related to the recent measurements of ǫ/ǫ, sin 2β and K+ → π+νν. A brief review is given of the connection between CP violation in B decays and electroweak baryogenesis. Finally, there is an extensive discussion of how present and proposed experiments ...

Determinations of the CKM phase γ from weak nonleptonic B decays are affected by electroweak (EW) penguins and rescattering effects. In this talk I explain how the EW penguin effects can be controlled with the help of SU(3) symmetry, by relating them to tree-level amplitudes. The impact of the finalstate interactions on the determination of γ from B+ → Kπ decays is studied numerically, showing ...
