Upper bound on the smuon mass from vacuum stability in the light of muon anomaly

So Chigusa, Takeo Moroi, Yutaro Shoji

We derive an upper bound on the smuon mass assuming that the muon anomaly is explained by the supersymmetric (SUSY) contribution. In the minimal SUSY standard model, the SUSY…

Precise Calculation of the Decay Rate of False Vacuum with Multi-Field Bounce

So Chigusa, Takeo Moroi, Yutaro Shoji

We study the decay rate of a false vacuum in gauge theory at the one-loop level. We pay particular attention to the case where the bounce consists of an arbitrary number of scalar…

Dirac dark matter in a radiative neutrino model

Hiroshi Okada, Yutaro Shoji

We propose a simple radiative neutrino mass scenario with a Dirac dark matter candidate, which is minimally realized by a Z3 symmetry. We introduce two Dirac neutrinos and two iner…

Maximum value of the spin-independent cross section in the THDM+a

Tomohiro Abe, Motoko Fujiwara, Junji Hisano +1

We investigate the maximum value of the spin-independent cross section () in a dark matter (DM) model called the two-Higgs doublet model + a (THDM+a). This model can e…
