Radiative Electroweak Symmetry Breaking from a Quasi-Localized Top Quark
Riccardo Barbieri, Lawrence J. Hall, Guido Marandella +4
We consider 5D supersymmetric SU(3) x SU(2) x U(1) theories compactified at the TeV scale on S^1/Z_2 with supersymmetry broken by boundary conditions. Localizing the top quark at a…
Breaking the electroweak symmetry and supersymmetry by a compact extra dimension
Riccardo Barbieri, Guido Marandella, Michele Papucci
We revisit in some more detail a recent specific proposal for the breaking of the electroweak symmetry and of supersymmetry by a compact extra dimension. Possible mass terms for th…
Anomalies, Fayet-Iliopoulos terms and the consistency of orbifold field theories
R. Barbieri, R. Contino, P. Creminelli +2
We study the consistency of orbifold field theories and clarify to what extent the condition of having an anomaly-free spectrum of zero-modes is sufficient to guarantee it. Preserv…
