Some Aspects of New CDM Models and CDM Detection Methods
Shmuel Nussinov
We briefly review some recent Cold Dark Matter (CDM) models. Our main focus are charge symmetric models of WIMPs which are not the standard SUSY LSP's (Lightest Supersymmetric Part…
Estimate of the Branching Fraction of tau --> pi eta' nu_tau
Shmuel Nussinov, Abner Soffer
We calculate the expected branching fraction of the second-class-current decay tau --> pi eta' nu, motivated by a a recent experimental upper-limit determination of this quantity.…
Dark Matter and Pseudo-flat Directions in Weakly Coupled SUSY Breaking Sectors
Boaz Keren-Zur, Luca Mazzucato, Yaron Oz
We consider candidates for dark matter in models of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking, in which the supersymmetry breaking sector is weakly coupled and calculable. Such models…
Gluon-Glueball Duality and Glueball Searches
Shmuel Nussinov, Robert Shrock
We discuss a notion of gluon-glueball duality analogous to quark-hadron duality. We apply this idea to the radiative decay of heavy orthoquarkonium, , which has b…
Capture of Inelastic Dark Matter in the Sun
Shmuel Nussinov, Lian-Tao Wang, Itay Yavin
We consider the capture of dark matter in the Sun by inelastic scattering against nuclei as in the inelastic dark matter scenario. We show that, assuming a WIMP-nucleon cross-secti…
A Pure-Glue Hidden Valley I. States and Decays
Jose E. Juknevich, Dmitry Melnikov, Matthew J. Strassler
It is possible that the standard model is coupled, through new massive charged or colored particles, to a hidden sector whose low energy dynamics is controlled by a pure Yang-Mills…
