Electroweak right-handed neutrinos and new signals at the LHC
We explore in detail the Higgs phenomenology that results in a model where
right-handed neutrinos have a mass scale of the order of the electroweak scale.
In this model all scales arise from spontaneous symmetry breaking, and this is
achieved with a Higgs sector that includes an extra Higgs singlet in addition
to the standard model Higgs doublet. The scalar spectrum includes two neutral
CP-even states ( and with )and a neutral CP-odd state
() that can be identified as a pseudo-Majoron. The parameter of the
Higgs potential are constrained using a perturbativity criteria. Higgs BR and
cross-sections are discussed, with special emphasis on the detection at the
LHC.Comment: 22 pages, 10 figure
Fundamental constraints on two-time physics
We show that generalizations of classical and quantum dynamics with two times
lead to fundamentally constrained evolution. At the level of classical physics,
Newton's second law is extended and exactly integrated in dimensional
space, leading to effective single-time evolution for any initial condition. In
the domain of quantum mechanics, we follow strictly the hypothesis of
probability conservation by extending the Heisenberg picture to unitary
evolution with two times. As a result, the observability of two temporal axes
is constrained by a generalized uncertainty relation involving level spacings,
total duration of the effect and Planck's constant.Comment: 13 pages, 1 figure. This version close to published pape
The decays h+- -> W-+ h0(a0) within an extension of the MSSM with one complex Higgs triplet
The vertex H+-W-+h0, involving the gauge bosons W-+, the charged (H+-) and
the lightest neutral (h0) Higgs bosons, arises within the context of many
extensions of the SM, and it can be used to probe the Higgs sector of such
extensions via the decay H+- -> W+- h0. We discuss the strength of this vertex
for an extension of the MSSM with an additional complex Higgs triplet. By using
this model, we find regions of the parameter space where the decay H+- -> W+-
h0 is not only kinematically allowed, but it also becomes an important decay
mode and in some cases the dominant one.Comment: 10 figure
