We present a grand unified model based on the supersymmetric $SU(3)_L\otimes SU(3)_{CL}\otimes SU(3)_{CR}\otimes SU(3)_R$ gauge group, which unifies in one single step the three gauge couplings of the standard model at an scale $M\sim…

We present the state-of-the art shell model calculations in a large model space (pf for protons, fpgd for neutrons), which allow to study simultaneously excitations across the Z=28 and N=50 shell gaps. We explore the region in the vicinity…
I put forward an SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R x U(1) model in which spontaneously broken parity symmetry makes it that strong CP violation only arises at three-loop level. All leptons and up-type quarks are in doublets either of SU(2)_L or of SU(2)_R,…
