H-->WW as the discovery mode for a light Higgs boson

N. Kauer, T. Plehn, D. Rainwater +1

The production cross section for a m_H=115 GeV, SM Higgs boson in weak boson fusion at the LHC is sizable. However, the branching fraction for H-->WW is expected to be relatively s…

Standard Model Neutrinos as Warm Dark Matter

Gian F. Giudice, Edward W. Kolb, Antonio Riotto +2

Standard Model neutrinos are not usually considered plausible dark matter candidates because the usual treatment of their decoupling in the early universe implies that their mass m…

Power counting and effective field theory for charmonium

Sean Fleming, Adam K. Leibovich, I. Z. Rothstein

We hypothesize that the correct power counting for charmonia is in the parameter Lambda_QCD/m_c, but is not based purely on dimensional analysis (as is HQET). This power counting l…

Can we distinguish an MSSM Higgs from a SM Higgs at a Linear Collider?

Heather E. Logan

We study the prospects for distinguishing the CP-even Higgs boson of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) from the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson by m…

Detection of massive tidal tails around the globular cluster Pal 5 with SDSS commissioning data

M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel, C. M. Rockosi +17

We report the discovery of two well-defined tidal tails emerging from the sparse remote globular cluster Palomar 5. These tails stretch out symmetrically to both sides of the clust…

Supersymmetric CP-violating Currents and Electroweak Baryogenesis

M. Carena, J. M. Moreno, M. Quiros +2

In this work we compute the CP-violating currents of the right-handed stops and Higgsinos, induced by the presence of non-trivial vacuum expectation values of the Higgs fields with…

String Breaking in Four Dimensional Lattice QCD

A. Duncan, E. Eichten, H. Thacker

Virtual quark pair screening leads to breaking of the string between fundamental representation quarks in QCD. For unquenched four dimensional lattice QCD, this (so far elusive) ph…

High-Redshift Quasars Found in Sloan Digital Sky Survey Commissioning Data V. Hobby-Eberly Telescope Observations

Donald P. Schneider, Xiaohui Fan, Michael A. Strauss +5

We report the discovery of 27 quasars with redshifts between 3.58 and 4.49. The objects were identified as high-redshift candidates based on their colors in Sloan Digital Sky Surve…

In Pursuit of New Physics with B_s Decays

Isard Dunietz, Robert Fleischer, Ulrich Nierste

The presence of a sizeable CP-violating phase in B_s^0-B_s^0-bar mixing would be an unambiguous signal of physics beyond the Standard Model. We analyse various possibilities to det…
