Bounds for FCNC and the Pseudoscalar Higgs mass in the General Two Higgs Doublet Model type III using $g-2$ muon factor

Current muon anomalous magnetic moment data have challenged the SM, and seems to open a window to new Physics. Since the difference between SM and experimental predictions is approximately $2.6σ$. In the framework of the General Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM), we calculate the muon anomalous magnetic moment to get lower and upper bounds for the Flavor Changing Yukawa couplings (FC) in the leptonic sector. We also obtain lower bounds for the mass of the Pseudoscalar Higgs ($m_{A^ 0}$, as a function of the parameters of the model.

Bounds for Lepton Flavor Violation and the Pseudoscalar Higgs in the General Two Higgs Doublet Model using $g-2$ muon factor

Current experimental data from the $g-2$ muon factor, seems to show the necessity of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM), since the difference between SM and experimental predictions is 2.6$σ$. In the framework of the General Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM), we calculate the muon anomalous magnetic moment to get lower and upper bounds for the Flavour Changing (FC) Yukawa couplings in the leptonic sector. We also obtain lower bounds for the mass of the pseudoscalar Higgs ($m_{A^0}$) as a function of the parameters of the model.

Implementation of the Five Qubit Error Correction Benchmark

The smallest quantum code that can correct all one-qubit errors is based on five qubits. We experimentally implemented the encoding, decoding and error-correction quantum networks using nuclear magnetic resonance on a five spin subsystem of labeled crotonic acid. The ability to correct each error was verified by tomography of the process. The use of error-correction for benchmarking quantum networks is discussed, and we infer that the fidelity achieved in our experiment is sufficient for preserving entanglement.

Lepton Flavor Violation in the Two Higgs Doublet Model type III

We consider the Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) of type III which leads to Flavour Changing Neutral Currents (FCNC) at tree level in the leptonic sector. In the framework of this model we can have, in principle, two situations: the case (a) when both doublets acquire a vacuum expectation value different from zero and the case (b) when only one of them is not zero. In addition, we show that we can make two types of rotations for the flavor mixing matrices which generates four types of lagrangians, with the rotation of type I we recover the case (b) from the case (a) in the limit $\tan β\to \infty $, and with the rotation of type II we obtain the case (b) from (a) in the limit $\tan β\to 0. $Moreover, two of the four possible lagrangians correspond to the models of types I and II plus Flavor Changing (FC) interactions. The analitical expressions of the partial lepton number violating widths $Γ(μ\to eee) $ and $Γ(μ\to eγ) $are derived for the cases (a) and (b) and both types of rotations.$ $In all cases these widths go asymptotically to zero in the decoupling limit for all Higgses. We present from our analysis upper bounds for the flavour changing transition $μ\to e,$ and we show that such bounds are sensitive to the VEV structure and the type of rotation utilized.

Getting bounds on the mixing angles for a non-sequential bottom quark

We analyze the vertex Zff in the framework of models that add a new bottom quark in a nonsequential way and we evaluate the tree level contribution to LEP/SLC data $R_{b}$, $R_{l}$ and the total Z width $Γ_{Z}$. We obtain bounds for the mixing angles through the experimentally allowed contour regions of the parameters $Λ_{L,R}$ introduced here. In order to get a more restrictive region, we also consider the experimental results for $B\to ννX$ as well.

NMR Based Quantum Information Processing: Achievements and Prospects

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) provides an experimental setting to explore physical implementations of quantum information processing (QIP). Here we introduce the basic background for understanding applications of NMR to QIP and explain their current successes, limitations and potential. NMR spectroscopy is well known for its wealth of diverse coherent manipulations of spin dynamics. Ideas and instrumentation from liquid state NMR spectroscopy have been used to experiment with QIP. This approach has carried the field to a complexity of about 10 qubits, a small number for quantum computation but large enough for observing and better understanding the complexity of the quantum world. While liquid state NMR is the only present-day technology about to reach this number of qubits, further increases in complexity will require new methods. We sketch one direction leading towards a scalable quantum computer using spin 1/2 particles. The next step of which is a solid state NMR-based QIP capable of reaching 10-30 qubits.

The H -> gamma gamma in Multi-Higgs doublet models

We study the dominant decays of the lightest Higgs boson in models with 2 and 3 Higgs doublets, for the case when its couplings to fermions are absent at tree-level. It is found that the branching ratio for the decay $H\to γγ$ is above the one into fermion pairs, which is evaluated also at the 1-loop level.

Limits on excited tau leptons masses from leptonic tau decays

We study the effects induced by excited leptons on the leptonic tau decay at one loop level. Using a general effective lagrangian approach to describe the couplings of the excited leptons, we compute their contributions to the leptonic decays and use the current experimental values of the branching ratios to put limits on the mass of excited states and the substructure scale.

A Cat-State Benchmark on a Seven Bit Quantum Computer

We propose and experimentally realize an algorithmic benchmark that demonstrates coherent control with a sequence of quantum operations that first generates and then decodes the cat state (|000...>+|111...>)/sqrt(2) to the standard initial state |000...>. This is the first high fidelity experimental quantum algorithm on the currently largest physical quantum register, which has seven quantum bits (qubits) provided by the nuclei of crotonic acid. The experiment has the additional benefit of verifying a seven coherence in a generic system of coupled spins. Our implementation combines numerous nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques in one experiment and introduces practical methods for translating quantum networks to control operations. The experimental procedure can be used as a reliable and efficient method for creating a standard pseudo-pure state, the first step for implementing traditional quantum algorithms in liquid state NMR. The benchmark and the techniques can be adapted for use on other proposed quantum devices.

Compositeness and the asymmetries of leptons at the Z^0 peak

We study the effects on the leptonic asymmetries A_{FB}, A_{pol} and A_{LR} coming from a model of compositeness. We consider the effects coming from the self-energies and the vertex correction to $Z l^+ l^-$. Thus we use the Altarelli parametrization of the oblique corrections. We get the asymptotic limits of these corrections in terms of the parameters $(m^*, Λ, f, f')$ and we get bounds for the quotient $m^*/Λ$ with different values of $(f, f')$. We conclude that both asymmetries produce bounds for such quotient when $f'$ overweigth to $f$, and this fact is related with the breakdown of the custodial symmetry.

FCNC in leptonic and semileptonic decays of D mesons in a general two-Higgs doublet model

Large long-distance standard model effects in FCNC semileptonic D decays can make observable these processes in future measurements. Eventual disagreements in this sector and/or the observation of lepton family violating (LFV) D decays would require an explanatio beyond the SM framework. In this paper we confront present experimental data on leptonic and semileptonic FCNC and LFV D meson decays with a version of the two-Higgs doublet model that allows these effects to occur at tree- level. The stringent bounds on the parameters of the model are obtained from D^0 --> l^+l'^- and D --> pi l^+l'^- decays. The consistency of the model requires that the branching fractions of D --> V l^+l'^- decays should be below the 10^{-9} level.

Constraint of the magnetic moment of the top quark

We derive a bound on the magnetic dipole moment of the top quark in the context of the effective Lagrangian approach by using the values of the ratio $R_b = Γ_b/Γ_h$, $R_l = Γ_h/Γ_l$ and $Γ_Z$. We found that the oblique corrections are more sensible than the vertex ones for this moment.

The Anomalous Chromomagnetic Dipole Moment of the Top Quark

We calculate the one loop corrections to the chromomagnetic dipole moment of the top quark in the framework of the Standard Model, the two Higgs doublet model and the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. In the Standard Model we consider the QCD and the electroweak corrections generated by gluon and Higgs boson exchanges, respectively. In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, we calculate the SUSY- QCD corrections, including the mixing effects between the stop coming from the left- and right-handed sectors. We obtain that the Standard Model contribution is of the order of -0.004< delta kappa_g^t < -0.001, and the values for diferents scenarios are of the order of -0.001 < δκ_g^t < -0.01.
