Common Origin of (-)^L, (-)^{3B}, and Strong CP Conservation

TL;DR

This paper links the conservation of lepton and baryon numbers to solving the strong CP problem via an axionic approach within a supersymmetric unification model, predicting new TeV-scale particles testable at the LHC.

Contribution

It introduces a novel connection between (-)^L, (-)^{3B}, and strong CP conservation in a supersymmetric unification framework, predicting new particles at the TeV scale.

Findings

Predicts new particles at the TeV scale.

Connects lepton/baryon number conservation to the strong CP problem.

Suggests verifiable consequences at the LHC.

Abstract

The multiplicative conservation of both lepton and baryon numbers, i.e. (-)^L and (-)^{3B}, is connected to an axionic solution of the strong CP problem in a supersymmetric, unifiable model of quark and lepton interactions. New particles are predicted at the TeV scale, with verifiable consequences at the Large Hadron Collider.
