We discuss the capabilities of future muon col-liders to resolve important particle physics questions. A collider with c.m. energy √ s = 100 to 500 GeV offers the unique opportunity to produce Higgs bosons in the s-channel and thereby measure the Higgs masses, total widths and several partial widths to high precision. At this same machine, tt and W + W − threshold studies would yield superior p...

The status of internal symmetry breaking at high temperature in supersymmetric models is reviewed. This phenomenon could solve some well known cosmological problems, such as the domain wall, monopole and false vacuum problems.

This article demonstrates that science is founded on symmetry and that Nature must have symmetry at its foundation. Full details are given in the book: Rosen, J. Symmetry Rules: How Science and Nature Are Founded on Symmetry; Springer-Verlag: Berlin, Germany, 2008.

The μ parameter is calculated in supergravity models possessing the U(1)A× U(1)R symmetry. In one natural model without a free mass parameter below the Planck scale, the symmetry breaking scale is identified as the hidden sector squark condensation scale. [email protected] 1

The phenomenology of the electroweak symmetry breaking sector is expected to involve resonances decaying preferentially into heavy fermions. Three recent CDF analyses are reviewed and used to constrain Higgs and Technicolor models.

I describe how SBDS can be utilised to break the symmetry in the Peaceably Coexisting Armies of Queens problem. Including how SBDS can be combined with other CSP techniques to produce improved performance.

The paper reviews the polyanionic hexagons of silicon and germanium, focusing on aromaticity. The chair-like structures of hexasilaand hexagermabenzene are similar to a nonaromatic cyclohexane (CH2)6 and dissimilar to aromatic D6h-symmetric benzene (CH)6, although silicon and germanium are in the same group of the periodic table as carbon. Recently, six-membered silicon and germanium rings with...

In this paper, a number of symmetry-breaking (SB) constraints are considered to improve the performance and decrease computational effort needed in the solution of Process Plant Layout (PPL) Problems. The PPL problems are formulated as mixed-integer linear (MILP) models. In order to determine the efficiency of the symmetry-breaking formulations, test runs are carried out on three different prob...
