B-L Neutrinos
Kevin Cahill
Neutrino masses and mixings are analyzed in terms of left-handed fields and a 6x6 complex symmetric mass matrix whose singular values are the neutrino masses. An angle theta_nu cha…
Neutrinos Are Nearly Dirac Fermions
Kevin Cahill
Neutrino masses and mixings are analyzed in terms of left-handed fields and a 6x6 complex symmetric mass matrix whose singular values are the neutrino masses. An angle x_nu charact…
Elements of Supersymmetry
Kevin Cahill
These notes are intended to provide an introduction to supersymmetry. The notes begin with supersymmetric quantum mechanics and the basic properties of spinor fields. The supersymm…
Condensates Break Chiral Symmetry
Kevin Cahill
In the physical vacuum of QCD, the energy density of light-quark fields strongly coupled to slowly varying gluon fields can be negative. The states that drive this energy density l…
