p-Adic description of Higgs mechanism V: New Physics

TL;DR

This paper proposes a p-adic framework within Topological Geometrodynamics (TGD) to describe new physics phenomena, including light exotic particles and modifications to standard model interactions, supported by experimental hints and theoretical consistency.

Contribution

It introduces a p-adic probability approach in TGD to explain anomalies and predict new particles, offering a novel perspective on Higgs mechanism and beyond standard model physics.

Findings

Light leptomesons supported by heavy ion collision data

Exotic color bosons restore asymptotic freedom in the model

Z^0 decay width constraints are addressed using p-adic probabilities

Abstract

TGD suggests the existence of two new branches of physics, namely M_{89} hadron physics and M_{127} leptohadron physics. Leptons and U type quarks are predicted to have light colored excitations. The anomalous production of e^+e^- pairs in heavy ion collisions sup- ports the existence of light leptomeson but there are objections against light exotics. a) Asymptotic freedom in the standard sense might be lost: the recently identified exotic color bosons however save the situation. b) Z^0 decay width seems to exclude light exotics. The solution of the problem relies on p-adic probability concept. The real counterpart (\sum_jP(ito j))_R for the sum of p-adic probabi- lities differs from the sum \sum_j P(i toj)_R for the real counter- parts of p-adic probabilities. Interpretation:(\sum_jP(i to j))_R is used, when only a common signature for final states is used. \sum_j(P(i to j)_R is used, when each final state is monitored separately. The total decay rate of $Z^0$ to unmonitored exotic leptons is sensitive to the value of \theta_W(eff) and vanishes for sin^2(\theta_W(eff))=0.2324 and sensible value of \alpha_s(L)! In TGD the observed top quark candidate most probably corresponds to u and d quarks of M_{89} hadron physics. The details of the identification and signatures of the new Physics are discussed.
