Why to go beyond SM ? Major puzzles of SM: (i) Origin of Mass: origin and value of <H>: LHC to throw light on it:

(ii) Origin of Flavor: Generations; Fermion masses, mixings, CP and P-

violation in SM; CP violation in strong interaction; Neutrino mass physics, LFV searches and B-physics will

elucidate their origin !

(iii) Cosmological Issues: Dark matter, Origin of matter (also related to flavor

puzzle), inflation etc.

Origin of Mass Higgs boson elementary or

composite ? Elementary:: Supersymmetry Rules are usual QFT; calculable quantum

corrections and precision test possible!! Cosmology easier to visualize in model.

Composite:: Technicolor or warped extra dimensions .

Conceptually beautiful, analogy to QCD attractive but hard to do precise calculations. Hard to do cosmology !!

Supersymmetric Route

Use supersymmetry to solve the mass problem;

Extend it to solve flavor problem e.g. neutrino mass, Dark matter, CP, Strong CP problem etc.

Immediately beyond MSSM: SUSYLR motivated by nu-mass; solves all these problems-

Gauge Hierarchy and Supersymmetry

To every SM particle - a superpartner: Minimal Model -MSSM

Cancels selfmass divergence of Higgs and solves the gauge hierarchy problem:

Bonus 1: Lightest sparticle stable if R-parity exact and becomes dark matter.

Bonus 2: Coupling Unification and GUTs

MSSM does not predict coupling unification; Need to assume no new physics till high scale:

Proton decay key test !

For colliders, gaugino unif. important test:

7:2:1:: 321 MMM

Bonus 3: Electroweak symmetry breaking

MSSM provides a simple way to understand the origin of EWSB and hence the origin of mass !

Light Higgs mass bound: Key test of MSSM is upper bound on

light neutral Higgs mass:

Implementing EW baryogenesis puts stronger limits < 120 GeV and light stop

< 200 GeV.

Testable soon at LHC.

Problems: MSSM needs fixing-I SM has stable proton- but MSSM

takes a step backward !! protons decay in an instant in MSSM.

Culprit: R-parity breaking terms

Also no stable dark matter-one of the much touted virtues of susy !!

How to naturally get an R-P conserving MSSM ?

Recall

A natural way to have automatic RP conservaing MSSM is to have a higher scale theory with built in local B-L symmetry and break B-L by 2 units.

(RNM,86; Font,Ibanez,Quevedo,89; Martin,92)

( R-parity is often assumed as an adhoc symmetry just to guarantee dark matter and stop proton decay- but we may be missing some important clues to new physics that way !!)

SLBR 2)(3)1(

MSSM needs fixing-Part II MSSM has other problems too ! Too many parameters (~105 or so); Large flavor changing neutral

current effects- Too large edm problem (SUSY CP

problem), no solution to strong CP problem:

Mu-problem

Flavor Problems of MSSM

In general, 5 3x3 hermitean sparticle mass

matrices; 15 phases 3 3x3 arbitrary A matrices; 27

phases 3 gaugino mass phases; mu-

phase,B-mu phase; 5 phases; 32 phases for squarks in addition to

CKM phase; SM only one phase.

SUSY breaking- hope for some type II problems:

SUSY breaking mechanism may cure the FCNC and too many parameter problem:

Gravity mediated (MSUGRA) : -FCNC problem ! Gauge Mediated SUSY Breaking: many fewer

parameters: - Mu-Bmu problem; gravitino LSP KeV dark matter only for low

reheating temp !

(ii) Anomaly Med. SUSY Breaking: many fewer parameters -However without new physics beyond MSSM breaks electric charge !

Going beyond MSSM clearly indicated for

various reasons !

A New beyond MSSM roadmap inspired by nu- mass

MSSM SUSY LEFT RIGHT Gauge group:

Solves many problems of SM and MSSM in addition to explaining small neutrinos masses:

(i) Proposed to explain origin of parity violation:

(ii) No SUSY CP and strong CP problems; (iii) Automatic R-parity- stable DM; (iv) Predicts new kinds of light Higgs bosons.

Why nonzero -mass suggests LR sym.

Starting point for simple understanding of neutrino mass: add

RH neutrino to MSSM :

Seesaw: type I and RH neutrinos:

Large Majorana mass for the RH neutrinos:

Note just like R-parity, Seesaw also

requires B-L=2; Could there be a common theory for both ?

Minkowski’77; Gell-Mann, Ramond, Slansky; Yanagida; Glashow R. N. M.; Senjanovic 79

An important property of -MSSM

A new cubic triangle anomaly free quantum number is B-L unlike MSSM i.e.

MSSM: Whereas with nu^c

added

B-L is gaugeable sym. And minimal such theory is LR model.

Summary of bounds on LR Scale: Non-SUSY case Collider limits on WR and Z’:

around 780 GeV- 800 GeV. Low energy limits: K-K-bar, CPV,

edm etc: WR mass > 2.5 TeV. (Zhang,An,Ji,RNM,2008)

Limits from Neutrinoless double beta decay+ vacuum stability:

WR mass > 1.5 TeV. Limits are lower for SUSYLR due

to sparticle FCNC effects. (Zhang,An,Ji 2008)

What is the Seesaw (LR) scale ? GUT vs sub-GUT

Type I term ; so can allow WR anywhere from TeVs up. To right nu masses.

Type II term ; sub-eV neutrino mass would then imply suggest standard standard GUT scenario e.g. SO(10)

with 126 Higgs . Has issues- (see Part 2 of talk) Two questions arise: (i) Why contemplate lower scale LR sym ? -unlike GUT seesaw, TeV and other sub-GUT scale

seesaw testable in colliders; (ii) Doesn’t the type II term need extreme fine

tuning ? -SUSYLR solves this problem.

SUSY ESSENTIAL FOR LOW SCALE LR SEESAW In Non-susy left-right models, the relation

arises from the term

SUSY LR does not allow such terms and hence implies and thus no restriction on the seesaw scale from type II seesaw.

We will contemplate seesaw (left-right) scales anywhere from TeV up.

Again SUSY essential for strong CP

Mass matrices: h hermitean even for SUSY with given

definition of parity; so M is hermitean if <phi> is real.

In non-susy <phi> is not real due to the presence of arbitrary phases in pot.

Again SUSY does not allow such terms- parity makes all couplings in super-pot real and all vevs real real.

Radiative corrections small; Higher Dim operators must be small.

Implications of Minimal SUSYLR: A TeV Scale Theory

(i) In the minimal model, all symmetry breakings related to soft SUSY breakings:

(ii) Ground state breaks parity only if it breaks R-parity :

(iii) There is an upper limit on the WR scale in the TeV

range- so predicts the seesaw scale. (kuchimanchi, RNM, 93,95)

With , neutrino masses OK. Induced CP phase is small and maintains the strong

CP solution.

Two ways to restore R-parity:

(ii) Add non-renormalizable terms: (SUSYLRN)

Getting neutrino masses from TeV scale seesaw implies that R-P breaking couplings are of the form:

If gravitino is the LSP with m <10 GeV, its lifetime is > sec. naturally and hence it can be a dark matter.

be unstable or some other form of .

Mid- 70’s- GUT theories had proton decay and scenarios for baryogenesis

Started intense search for proton decay.

Things changed in 80’s

Rise of Sphalerons in SM; Inflationary Universe: Seesaw proposed 1979: Leptogenesis proposed 1986

(Fukugita,Yanagida): No need for proton decay; Seesaw enough.

Produces lepton asymmetry and sphalerons convert it to baryons.

Problem with Leptogenesis

Problem: Gravitino constraint limits reheat after inflation to be less than 10^7 GeV (Kohri et

al), whereas adequate leptogenesis requires T>10^9 GeV (Davidson,Ibarra):

Post-sphaleron baryogenesis:

Basic Idea: (Babu,Nasri,RNM’06)

Baryogenesis occurs after Sphalerons decouple: GeV;

Need new particle S with mass ~100 GeV to TeV; decaying violating B;

S must couple to B-violating current. B-violating processes must go out of

Eq. at low temperature. Fits very well into TeV scale left-right

extended to SU(4)_color.

200T

Basic ingredients Requires extending SUSYLR Delta’s to

include diquarks: with a new coupling of the form: = S Y X^2

Key feature is that if decay of S goes out of equilibriunm below

T=100 GeV and produces baryons directly using CKM phase.

Actual decay takes place at few tens of MeV temp

Summary A simple extension of MSSM that explains

neutrino mass and stable dark matter is minimal SUSYLR with B-L=2 triplets:

(i) TeV scale WR with Rp breaking: has gravitino dark matter not conventional neutralino.

(ii) Second has non-ren terms: no strong CP sol. but fixes AMSB.

(iii) One loop breaking withR-P conserved: Solves

strong CP problem; predicts upper limits on new Higgs, sleptons etc. No need for non-ren terms to be dominant.

Impact of Minimal SUSYLR onSupersymmetry breaking:

Summary: a broad general feature of minimal R-P conserving SUSYLR model

is that it leaves to MSSM plus extra Higgs fields that interact with leptons.

This has important impact on the class of models where SUSY is broken by conformal anomalies (AMSB).

What is AMSB and why it is problematic ?

Superconformal anomaly to generate SUSY breaking effects:

Basic idea: One can get Einstein gravity From Weyl Inv. Action as follows: S=

Set leads to Hilbert action.

How to generalize to supergravity ?

Basic idea is to use superconformal symmetry: What is it ?

Conformal group: Poincare+scale + conformal:

Add SUSY to it: becomes superconformal: Technique: Gauge superconformal group

and fix gauge: (Kaku,Townsend,Van Niuenhuizen; Siegel,Gates; Cremmer et al. 78-80)

Follow the same techniques as before.

Superconformal Inv. Action:

Technique: Matter fields Weyl weight w=0; Superpotential must have weight w=3 ; D-terms must have w=0;conformal compensator field Φ w=1. conformal inv. Action: 3324 QdQQdS

Anomaly and Soft SUSY breaking terms

SUSY breaking vev for compensator field from hidden sector:

Renormalization introduces mass

Leads to soft susy breaking terms: Only one parameter describes all susy

Summary: Contd If gaugino masses indicate AMSB, will

suggest minimal LR seesaw with TeV scale Higgs:

Experimental tests: (muonium-anti-muonium oscillation lower bound, Bunched sparticle spectrum, new Higgs etc.)

Baryogenesis: Either EW baryogenesis from wall reflection or post sphaleron baryogenesis with extra particles using the decay of Re Delta^c: needs addition of diquark Higgses present in SU(4)-color generalization.

Grand unification Route Beyond MSSM(i) Grand unification hypothesis: all forces

and all matter become one at high energies no matter how different they look at low energies.

(ii) Many examples of theories where simple renormalization group analysis of the low energy couplings lead to unification at high scales e.g. MSSM at TeV, SO(10) without SUSY etc.

---- Explains charge quantization;----High scale goes well with ideas in cosmology ; ----As we will see, fits very well with neutrino mass

ideas too.

Some examples: SUSY Non-SUSY SO(10) SM with seesaw

Other advantages of GUTs (i) Higher symmetry could give better

understanding of fermion masses ;

(ii) Explains charge quantization; (iii) High scale explains proton

stability; (iv) High scale goes well with

cosmological issues such as inflation and baryogenesis.

Simplest example: SUSY SU(5)

Also proton decay problem (see later)…

Add higher dim operators For minimal Higgs content, solution of

fermion mass problem in SU(5) requires adding higher dim operators:e.g. ; corrects mu-s mass relation:

% Perils of adding HD operators: add all e.g. Or only ones you want Affects gauge coupling unification: New proton decay operators (see

later). Lose predictivity…

Two broad classes of GUTs: One lesson from SU(5)

(i) Theories where HD operators play a crucial role:

(Risky since we really do not know the coefficients- they could be exponentially suppressed.)

(ii)Those based only on renorm. terms: (If they work, they are more riskfree: such a model for SU(5) needs adding

45_H).

Going beyond minimal SU(5): Neutrino mass via seesaw

SEESAW

Type I: three RH nus: Type II: Need a {15}-dim Higgs; Type III: Need {24} –dim fermion

(Foot,Lew,He,Joshi)

Include neutrino mass via seesaw in SU(5)

Type I: three RH neutrinos: No understanding of scale; Type II: Need a {15}-Higgs; scale OK. Lower limit on

seesaw scale from gauge unif.: 10^11 GeV. Need higher Dim operators for fermion masses.

Type III: Need two or three extra {24}: upper and lower limit on scale: (RNM,Okada,Yu’08)

higher Dim operators for fermions. Grand unification puts lower limit of 10^12 GeV on

seesaw scale. For type I however, we need go beyond SM and

SU(5) sym. to understand scale.

Introductory remarks on SO(10):

{16} spinor for fermions: includes all SM fermions + nu_R.

{16}x{16}=10 + 120+126 Need {10}, {120} and/or {120} for fermion masses. Under SU(5): {16}=10+5*+1

{10}=5+5* {126}=1+5*+10+15*+45+50* {120}=5+5*+10+10*+45+45*

Under SU(2)xSU(2)xSU(4): {16}=(2,1,4)+(1,2,4*)

{10}=(2,2,1)+(1,1,6)

{120}= (2,2,1)+(2,2,15)+(3,1,6)+(1,3,6)+(1,1,10+10*)

{126}=(1,3,10*)+(3,1,10)+(2,2,15)+(1,1,6)

How is B-L Broken ? {16} vs {126}

In SUSY SO(10), B-L can either be broken by {16}- Higgs by its component.

Specific features of this case: (i) Typical minimal Higgs content:

(ii) M_R arises from non-ren. terms; (iii) Relies heavily on higher dim operators for

constructing realistic models: (Albright, Barr; Babu, Pati, Wilczek; Ji, Li, RNM.)

Pros and Cons of {16} models:

Pros: (i) Smaller representations and hence controlled threshhold effects;

(ii): Simple string models lead to these reps:Cons: (i) Lead to R-parity breaking from

terms: no stable dark matter without extra assumptions;

(ii) Too many parameters: need new sym. for prediction

(iii) HD operator e.g. {16}^4 gives rapid proton decay and has coeff. 10^-7 whereas needed HD operators require coeff ~1. WHY ? Perhaps a new symmetry ?

Hmmm

Break B-L by 126-Higgs

SM singlet in 126 is which has B-L=2; Leaves Gauged R parity unbroken in

MSSM and gives stable dark matter. Also since 16 X 16 = 10 + 126 + 120Minimal model: -one each of 10+126+ 120. -126 gives mass to charged fermions as well as

RH neutrinos relating RH neutrino spectrum to charged fermion spectrum.

- uses only renormalizable couplings. So no new fine tuning problem. Not an effective field theory.

Coupling Unification with type II seesaw

Usual allegation of large threshold effects Usual allegation of large threshold effects FALSE !!FALSE !!

New Threshold approach to suppress proton decay:

Perhaps the GUT scale is not 2.10^16 GeV but much higher.

This will happen if there are new thresholds such that all p-decay mediating fields are at this higher GUT scale:

If the thresholds are associated with Flavor violation, perhaps one can see their effects at low energies:

Examples: SO(10) with 10+126+120: (Dutta,

Mimura,RNM,PRL, 2008)

More HD operator woes:

Once you some include HD operators for making theory realistic, one should all unless forbidden sy symmetries e.g.

WW 45 that destrys GCU.

Curing (iv) – SO(10) example.

In SUSY SO(10) models with {16}_H, one expects couplings of type where by proton lifetime limits.

However, these models use other higher dim operators with order one couplings to understand fermion masses.

How can one reconcile this ?One approach is to have discrete gauge

symmetries which prevent [16]^4 operator as well as R-P violating operators but allow necessary others- They will then be immune to nonpert. Gravitation effects (which are the origin of such operators).

mmmmPM

Discrete Gauge Symmetries:

Ibanez, Ross; Hinchliffe,Kaeding, Dreiner,Luhn, Murayama,……

Idea: Supplement the gauge group by an anomaly free discrete symmetry and choose the assignment of symmetry to fields such that all good operators arev allowed and p-decay operator QQQL

Forbidden.

Discrete Gauge symmetry in SO(10)

Smallest anomaly free DGS for SO(10) with {16}-H for 3 gen. is Z_6;

forbids both [16]^4+ RP breaking terms and suppresses proton decay. Only gauge boson exchange responsible for p-decay.

Requires 2 {10}’s for minimal model with Charge assignment as follows (RNM,Ratz,07)

SUMMARY

Neutrino mass introduces B-L as a symmetry of Nature. What is its scale ?

Very interesting possibility is that B-L scale is GUT scale: Minimal SO(10) realizations with 10+120+126 Higgs are realistic and predictive. Can be tested by forthcoming neutrino experiments !

Unresolved issues Generic GUTs: (A): Resolving p-decay problems

needs extra assumptions e.g. (i) Cancellations; (ii) Discrete symmetries (iii) New thresholds and high GUT

scale (B): Doublet triplet splitting (C): Flavor: new family symmetries…

Specific SO(10) neutrino models: Possible conflict between SUSY SO(10)

and standard leptogenesis due to gravitino problem:

Typical RH neutrino masses needed for leptogenesis (Davidson,Ibarra);

Typical SO(10) predictions above this.
