Anomalous U(1)'s, Chern-Simons couplings and the Standard Model

Abstract

This proceeding is based on hep-th/0605225 and it shows that the most general anomaly related effective action contains Stuckelberg, axionic and Chern-Simons-like couplings. Such couplings are generically non-trivial in orientifold string vacua. A similar analysis in quantum field theories provides similar couplings. These Chern-Simons couplings generate new signals which might be visible at LHC.
