W boson mass anomaly and noncontractibility of the physical space

The CDF II detector at the Tevatron collider reported significant tension between the measurement of the W boson mass and the Standard Model prediction, assuming that 125 GeV scalar discovered at the LHC is the Higgs boson. We calculate one loop corrections to the W boson mass within the theory of noncontractible space without the Higgs boson. It turns out that our theory provides better agreement with the CDF II detector result than the Standard Model.

Einstein-Cartan cosmology and the S8 problem

The measurements of cluster abundances, gravitational lensings, redshift space distortions and peculiar velocities at lower redshifts point out to much smaller sigma_8 than its value deduced from the measurements of the CMB fluctuations assuming the standard LCDM cosmology. High redshift measurements of ALMA and JWST imply even more striking problems for LCDM. We examine and compare the sigma_8 redshift dependence calculated within the gauge invariant formalism. Because the CMB fluctuations comprise a cosmological data from the recombination era to the present, the S_8 problem of the LCDM cosmology is not a surprise from the standpoint of the Einstein-Cartan cosmology because it predicts much larger mass density and sigma_8(z) than the LCDM model at high redshifts.

On the possible new heavy scalar and pseudoscalar resonances at the LHC

We argue that the possible new heavy boson resonance of 750 GeV is an ideal candidate as a twin particle of the 125 GeV scalar boson, both emerging from the large mixing of the scalar toponium and scalar gluonium. The twin pseudoscalar particles are expected to have smaller masses. The discovery of the 750 GeV resonance is possible only with a much more data than for the 125 GeV resonance since only the gluonium component is detectable above the toponium threshold. The similar type of the QCD resonances is expected in the bottomonium-gluonium system. If the LHC will discover all these heavy quarkonium-gluonium resonances, the absence of the Higgs scalar should not be considered an obstacle because the nonsingular theory with the UV cutoff fixed by the weak boson masses is superior to the Standard Model. Namely, it solves the basic problems for the SM such as: (1) the existence of light neutrinos, (2) dark matter particles to be the heavy Majorana neutrinos and (3) broken lepton and baryon numbers.

On binary pulsars and the force of gravity

The energy-momentum budget of the astrophysical systems can be studied by the exact local conservation equation derived by Landau and Lifshitz. We show that a similar equation is valid for the Einstein-Cartan gravity. We reanalyze a binary pulsar system using the Landau-Lifshitz conservation equation and show that the orbital period change rate can be completely understood as a curvature backreaction process. Taking into account the detailed theoretical and observational research of relativistic binary pulsar systems, especially the system of Hulse and Taylor, we conclude that general relativity and astrophysical observations rule out the existence of gravitational radiation. We comment upon the LIGO GW events and their alternative explanation, as well as the recent pulsar timing arrays data.

Pulsar timing arrays within rotating and expanding Universe

Recent measurements of the four pulsar timing arrays were interpreted as a signal of the low frequency stochastic gravitational wave background. We show that the amplitude and angular correlations of pulsar timing residuals can be interpreted as a consequence of the vortical geodetic motions of pulsar's photons within rotating and expanding Universe. The resulting angular correlation curves are similar to the Hellings-Downs curve and the observed amplitude allows the estimate of the vorticity of the Universe. We show that the estimated vorticity is compatible with the observed rotation of the CMB polarization vector.

Comment on "Indefinitely Flat Circular Velocities and the Baryonic Tully-Fisher Relation from Weak Lensing"

The recent measurements of circular velocity curves from weak lensing of the isolated galaxies lead to a conclusion that the circular velocity curves remain flat well beyond the virial radii of dark matter halos up to 1 Mpc. This is in clear contradiction with the LCDM numerical simulations. We show that the additional cosmic force originating from the geometry of the Universe beyond the Friedmann model increases the circular velocities of the test galactic bodies and avoids a decline of the standard LCDM velocity curves.

Einstein-Cartan cosmology and the CMB anisotropies

We derive linear scalar perturbation equations for Einstein-Cartan field equations of Weyssenhoff fluid, as well as for the corresponding perturbations of Bianchi identity and geodesic equations. The equations are given in both conformal Newtonian and synchronous gauges. They are suitable for numerical implementation when precise evolution of torsion and its perturbation will be extracted from N-body cosmic simulations of the large scale structures in the Universe. A rising number of problems of the concordance cosmological model forces us to include the rotational degrees of freedom realized through torsion in the Einstein-Cartan gravity.

Einstein-Cartan cosmology and the high-redshift Universe

The Hubble tension, known as a discrepancy between the local measurements vs. the CMB, SNe and galaxy clustering fits of the Hubble constant, the first measurement of the 21-centimeter high-redshift signal by EDGES, the high-redshift galaxy halo number densities and the measurements of the ionizing photon mean free path represent a great challenge for the concordance cosmology. We show that the nonsingular Einstein-Cartan cosmological model with the simple parametrization of torsion of spacetime (angular momentum of the Universe) can substantially improve agreement with data. Light Majorana neutrinos are dominant source of the spin of matter coupled to torsion, while the heavy Majorana neutrinos represent cold dark matter particles fulfilling the Griest-Kamionkowski unitarity bound.

A note on the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon

The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon is an important observable that tests radiative corrections of all three observed local gauge forces: electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions. High precision measurements reveal some discrepancy with the most accurate theoretical evaluations of the anomalous magnetic moment. We show in this note that the UV finite theory cannot resolve this discrepancy. We believe that more reliable estimate of the nonperturbative hadronic contribution and the new measurements can resolve the problem.

On the Einstein-Cartan cosmology vs. Planck data

The first comprehensive analyses of Planck data reveal that the cosmological model with dark energy and cold dark matter can satisfactorily explain the essential physical features of the expanding Universe. However, the inability to simultaneously fit large and small scale TT power spectrum, scalar power index smaller than one and the observations of the violation of the isotropy found by few statistical indicators of the CMB, urge theorists to search for explanations. We show that the model of the Einstein-Cartan cosmology with clustered dark matter halos and their corresponding clustered angular momenta coupled to torsion, can account for small scale - large scale discrepancy and larger peculiar velocities (bulk flows) for galaxy clusters. The nonvanishing total angular momentum (torsion) of the Universe enters as a negative effective density term in the Einstein-Cartan equations causing partial cancellation of the mass density. The integrated Sachs-Wolfe contribution of the Einstein-Cartan model is negative, thus it can provide partial cancellation of the large scale power of the TT CMB spectrum. The observed violation of the isotropy appears as a natural ingredient of the Einstein-Cartan model caused by the spin densities of light Majorana neutrinos in the early stage of the evolution of the Universe and bound to the lepton CP violation and matter-antimatter asymmetry.

On the quantum loop suppressed electroweak processes

The quantum loop suppressed electroweak processes appear to be very sensitive probes for the symmetry-breaking mechanisms. Since the Standard Model does not involve massive neutrinos, baryon or lepton number violations and the cold dark matter particle, there are great expectations in search for physics beyond the Standard Model. The LHC experiments reported no new physics, except for the appearance of the 125 GeV heavy resonance. If this resonance turns out to be a Higgs boson, we shall be faced with the paradox that the Standard Model, as a theoretically and experimentally incomplete and defective theory, is confirmed. If, on the other hand, this resonance is a scalar or pseudoscalar meson - a mixture of a (pseudo)scalar glueball and toponium, one has to study alternative symmetry-breaking mechanisms. This paper is devoted to the evaluations of the gauge invariant electroweak functions that are relevant for the suppressed electroweak processes within the SM or the UV finite theory in which the noncontractible space breaks the gauge symmetry. Deviations from the SM amplitudes range from 10% to 30%, thus being measurable at the LHCb and future superB factories. The most recent result of the LHCb, measuring certain B meson branching fraction, appears to be lower than the SM prediction, thus favouring our theory of noncontractible space.

On the broken gauge, conformal and discrete symmetries in particle physics

Relationships between gauge, conformal and discrete symmetries in particle physics are analysed. We study also the effect of the electroweak mixing on the cancellation of SU(2) anomalous actions. It is shown that the relation theta_{W} = 2(theta_{12}+theta_{23}+theta_{13}) between the Weinberg angle and the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angles should be satisfied and this effect is completely defined by the mixing of Dirac fermions. We compare two mechanisms of the spontaneous breaking of gauge symmetry, discuss the renormalizability of theories, and argue for the existence of the Majorana fermions necessary to remove the SU(2) anomalous action. The fate of the majoron and the spontaneously broken lepton number is discussed. We also show the compatibility of the boson and fermion mixings with Dyson-Schwinger equations.

On the anomalous t-quark charge asymmetry and noncontractibility of the physical space

Heavy flavour production at hadron colliders represents a very promising field to test perturbative QCD. The integrated forward-backward asymmetry of the top-antitop quark production is particularly sensitive to any deviation from the standard QCD calculations. The two Tevatron collaborations, CDF and D0, reported a much larger t-quark charge asymmetry than predicted by the theory. We show that the QCD in noncontractible space, where the minimal distance is fixed by weak interactions, enhances the asymmetry by more than a factor of 3 (5) at the parton level in leading order of the coupling for the Tevatron (LHC) center of mass energies. This result should not be a surprise since the asymmetry observable directly explores the far ultraviolet sector of the spacelike domain of the Minkowski spacetime.

On chirality of the vorticity of the Universe

We study chirality of the vorticity of the Universe within the Einstein-Cartan cosmology. The role of the spin of fermion species during the evolution of the Universe is studied by averaged spin densities and Einstein-Cartan equations. It is shown that spin density of the light Majorana neutrinos acts as a seed for vorticity at early stages of the evolution of the Universe. Its chirality can be evaluated in the vicinity of the spacelike infinity. It turns out that vorticity of the Universe has right-handed chirality.

On the anomalous CP violation and noncontractibility of the physical space

There is a growing evidence for the anomalously large semileptonic CP asymmetry in the B meson system measured at the Tevatron. The noncontractible space, as an alternative symmetry-breaking mechanism to the Higgs mechanism, can change standard field theoretic calculations of the physical processes mediated through quantum loops for large external momenta or large internal masses. The presence of the W bosons and t-quarks in loops of the B meson mixing can enhance the corresponding semileptonic CP asymmetry when the loop integration is up to the universal Lorentz and gauge invariant UV cut-off. We show that the enhancement is roughly 13%, thus the possible deviation is measurable at the Tevatron, LHCb, SuperKEKB and SuperB facilities.

On the rare B_s to two muons decay and noncontractibility of the physical space

It is very well known that the rare electroweak processes could be very sensitive to the physics beyond the Standard Model. These processes are described with quantum loop diagrams containing also heavy particles. We show that the electroweak theory with the noncontractible space, as a symmetry-breaking mechanism without the Higgs scalar, essentially changes the Standard Model prediction of the branching ratio of the B_s meson decaying to two muons. The branching ratio is lower by more than 30% compared with the Standard Model result. Although the measurements are very challenging, the implications on the selection of the symmetry-breaking mechanism could be decisive.

On the anomalous large-scale flows in the Universe

Recent combined analyses of the CMB and galaxy cluster data reveal unexpectedly large and anisotropic peculiar velocity fields at large scales. We study cosmic models with included vorticity, acceleration and total angular momentum of the Universe in order to understand the phenomenon. The Zeldovich model is used to mimic the low redshift evolution of the angular momentum. Solving coupled evolution equations of the second kind for density-contrast in corrected Ellis-Bruni covariant and gauge-invariant formalism one can properly normalize and evaluate integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect and peculiar velocity field. The theoretical results compared to the observations favor a much larger matter content of the Universe than that of the concordance model. Large-scale flows appear anisotropic with dominant components placed in the plane perpendicular to the axis of vorticity(rotation). The integrated Sachs-Wolfe term has negative contribution to the CMB fluctuations for the negative cosmological constant and it can explain the observed small power of the CMB TT spectrum at large scales. The rate of the expansion of the Universe can be substantially affected by the angular momentum if its magnitude is large enough.

On Dyson-Schwinger equations and the number of fermion families

We study Dyson-Schwinger equations for propagators of Dirac fermions interacting with a massive gauge boson in the ladder approximation. The equations have the form of the coupled nonlinear integral Fredholm equations of the second kind in the spacelike domain. The solutions in the timelike domain are completely defined by evaluations of integrals of the spacelike domain solutions. We solve the equations and analyze the behavior of solutions on the mass of the gauge boson, the coupling constant, and the ultraviolet cutoff. We find that there are at least two solutions for the fixed gauge boson mass, coupling, and the ultraviolet cutoff, thus there are at least two fermion families. The zero-node solution represents the heaviest Dirac fermion state, while the one-node solution is the lighter one. The mass gap between the two families is of the order of magnitude observed in nature.
