The Mass Spectra, Hierarchy and Cosmology of B-L MSSM Heterotic Compactifications
Michael Ambroso, Burt A. Ovrut
The matter spectrum of the MSSM, including three right-handed neutrino supermultiplets and one pair of Higgs-Higgs conjugate superfields, can be obtained by compactifying the E_{8}…
The B-L/Electroweak Hierarchy in Smooth Heterotic Compactifications
Michael Ambroso, Burt Ovrut
E8 X E8 heterotic string and M-theory, when appropriately compactified, can give rise to realistic, N=1 supersymmetric particle physics. In particular, the exact matter spectrum of…
The B-L/Electroweak Hierarchy in Heterotic String and M-Theory
Michael Ambroso, Burt Ovrut
E8 x E8 heterotic string and M-theory, when compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold admitting an SU(4) vector bundle with Wilson lines, can give rise to the exact MSSM spectrum with…
Two Higgs Pair Heterotic Vacua and Flavor-Changing Neutral Currents
Michael Ambroso, Volker Braun, Burt A. Ovrut
We present a vacuum of heterotic M-theory whose observable sector has the MSSM spectrum with the addition of one extra pair of Higgs-Higgs conjugate superfields. The quarks/leptons…
Dynamics of shallow impact cratering
M. A. Ambroso, R. D. Kamien, D. J. Durian
We present data for the time-dependence of wooden spheres penetrating into a loose non-cohesive packing of glass beads. The stopping time is a factor of three longer than the time…
Penetration depth for shallow impact cratering
M. A. Ambroso, C. R. Santore, A. R. Abate +1
We present data for the penetration of a variety of spheres, dropped from rest, into a level non-cohesive granular medium. We improve upon our earlier work [Uehara {\it et al.} Phy…
