Nuclear matter as a liquid phase of spontaneously broken semi-classical chiral perturbation theory: Static chiral nucleon liquids
Bryan W. Lynn, Brian J. Coffey, Kellen E. McGee +1
We study effective field theories (EFT) of nuclear structure based on spontaneously broken global chiral symmetry of QCD with two massless quarks, i.e. $SU(…
Nuclides as a liquid phase of chiral perturbation theory I: emergence of pion-less SU(2) PT
Bryan W. Lynn, Glenn D. Starkman
The Standard Model of particle physics, augmented with neutrino mixing, is at least very nearly the complete theory of interactions of known particles at energies accessible to Nat…
CMB Spectral Distortions from Cooling Macroscopic Dark Matter
Saurabh Kumar, Emanuela Dimastrogiovanni, Glenn D. Starkman +2
We propose a new mechanism by which dark matter (DM) can affect the early universe. The hot interior of a macroscopic DM, or macro, can behave as a heat reservoir so that energetic…
Global BRST symmetry and its LSS theorem: Ward-Takahashi identities governing Green's functions, on-shell T-Matrix elements, and , in the scalar-sector of certain spontaneously broken non-Abelian gauge theories
Özenç Güngör, Bryan W. Lynn, Glenn D. Starkman
This work is dedicated to the memory of Raymond Stora (1930-2015). is the simplest spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) non-Abelian gauge theory: a complex scalar doublet…
symmetry, of on-shell T-matrix elements and (1--I) Green's functions, determines the vacuum state of the Abelian Higgs Model from symmetry alone: minimization of the scalar-sector effective potential is unnecessary
Özenç Güngör, Bryan W. Lynn, Glenn D. Starkman
The weak-scale Abelian Higgs Model (AHM) is the spontaneous-symmetry-breaking gauge theory of a complex scalar and a vector . Globa…
Hidden Ward-Takahashi identities in the spontaneously brokenAbelian Higgs model and the decoupling of certain heavy particles in its simple extensions
Bryan W. Lynn, Glenn D. Starkman
This work is dedicated to the memory of R. Stora. The spontaneously broken (SSB) Abelian Higgs model (AHM) (the gauge theory of a scalar $ϕ\propto (H+iπ)= {\tilde H}e^{i{\…
Global linear sigma model: axial-vector Ward Takahashi identities, and decoupling of certain heavy BSM particles due to the Goldstone theorem
Bryan W. Lynn, Glenn D. Starkman
Dedicated to the memory of Raymond Stora (1930-2015). In the Linear Sigma Model with PCAC, towers of Ward-Takahashi Identities (WTI) have long been known to…
Global xBRST symmetry and the LSS theorem: Ward-Takahashi identities governing Green's functions, on-shell T-Matrix elements, and the effective potential, in the spontaneously broken extended Abelian Higgs model
Bryan W. Lynn, Glenn D. Starkman
The weak-scale U(1) Abelian Higgs Model (AHM) is the simplest spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) gauge theory. The extended AHM (E-AHM) adds certain heavy scalars and fermions…
Macro Dark Matter
David M. Jacobs, Glenn D. Starkman, Bryan W. Lynn
Dark matter is a vital component of the current best model of our universe, CDM. There are leading candidates for what the dark matter could be (e.g. weakly-interacting massive…
The Goldstone theorem protects naturalness, and the absence of Brout-Englert-Higgs fine-tuning, in spontaneously broken SO(2)
Bryan W. Lynn, Glenn D. Starkman
The Gell-Mann-Levy (GML), Schwinger and Standard Models were previously shown to lack a Brout-Englert-Higgs (BEH) fine-tuning problem due to quadratic divergences, with finite Eucl…
The "Goldstone Exception" II: Absence of a Higgs Fine-Tuning Problem in the Spontaneously Broken Limit of the Gell Mann Levy Linear Sigma Model: O(4) with PCAC and SU(2)_L with PCAC and Standard Model Quarks and Leptons
Bryan W. Lynn, Glenn D. Starkman, Katherine Freese +1
More than four decades ago, Lee and Symanzik proved that, in the Gell Mann-Levy (GML) model with partially conserved axial-vector currents (PCAC), tadpole renormalization (a Higgs…
Spontaneously broken Standard Model (SM) symmetries and the Goldstone theorem protect the Higgs mass and ensure that it has no Higgs Fine Tuning Problem (HFTP)
Bryan W. Lynn
B.W.Lee/K.Symanzik proved that Ward-Takahashi identities and tadpole renormalization force all ultra-violet quadratic divergences (UV-QD) to be absorbed into the physical renormali…
Liquid Phases in SU(3) Chiral Perturbation Theory: Drops of Strange Chiral Nucleon Liquid & Ordinary Chiral Heavy Nuclear Liquid
Bryan W. Lynn
Chiral SU(3) Perturbation Theory (SU3XPT) identifies hadrons as the building blocks of strongly interacting matter at low densities and temperatures. We show that it admits two co-…
QCD Scales in Finite Nuclei
J. L. Friar, D. G. Madland, B. W. Lynn
The role of QCD scales and chiral symmetry in finite nuclei is examined. The Dirac-Hartree mean-field coupling constants of Nikolaus, Hoch, and Madland (NHM) are scaled in accordan…
