相关论文: The flavor dependence of $m_\varrho / f_\pi$
Should a strongly coupled composite Higgs boson scenario be realized in Nature the most easily accessible experimental signal would be new particles made up of the same ingredients as the Higgs but with different quantum numbers. The…
In previous work, arXiv:1905.01909, we have calculated the $m_\varrho / f_\pi$ ratio in the chiral and continuum limit for $SU(3)$ gauge theory coupled to $N_f = 2,3,4,5,6$ fermions in the fundamental representation. The main result was…
The $f_\varrho / m_\varrho$ ratio is calculated at N$^3$LO order within perturbative (p)NRQCD with $N_f$ flavors of mass degenerate fermions. The massless limit of the ratio is expanded \'a la Banks-Zaks in $\epsilon = 16.5 - N_f$ leading…
We present updated results on the chiral properties of SU(3) gauge theories with 2 and 6 massless Dirac fermions in the fundamental representation. Our focus is on the ratio $\langle \bar{\psi} \psi \rangle / F^3$, where $\langle \bar{\psi}…
The fermion flavor $N_f$ dependence of non-perturbative solutions in the strong coupling phase of the gauge theory is reexamined based on the interrelation between the inversion method and the Schwinger-Dyson equation approach. Especially…
We report extended simulation results and their new analysis in two important gauge theories with twelve fermion flavors in the fundamental SU(3) color representation and two fermions in the sextet representation. We probe the $N_f=12$…
We report new results for a frequently discussed gauge theory with twelve fermion flavors in the fundamental representation of the SU(3) color gauge group. The model, controversial with respect to its conformality, is important in…
Information of the phase structure of many flavor SU(3) gauge theory is of great interest for finding a theory which dynamically breaks the electro-weak symmetry. We study the SU(3) gauge theory with fermions for $N_f=12$ and 16 in…
The SU(3) gauge theory with $N_f=8$ nearly massless Dirac fermions has long been of theoretical and phenomenological interest due to the near-conformality arising from its proximity to the conformal window. One particularly interesting…
We study the Schwinger model with $N_{\rm f} \geq 2$ degenerate fermion flavors, by means of lattice simulations. We use dynamical Wilson fermions for $N_{\rm f} = 2$, and re-weighted quenched configurations for overlap-hypercube fermions…
A flavor-dependent model (FDM) is proposed in this work. The model extends the Standard Model by an extra $U(1)_F$ local gauge group, two scalar doublets, one scalar singlet and two right-handed neutrinos, where the additional $U(1)_F$…
We present new results on chiral symmetry breaking in nearly conformal gauge theories with fermions in the fundamental representation of the SU(3) color gauge group. The number of fermion flavors is varied in an extended range below the…
Two particular ratios related to mesons are proposed for the study of the conformal window in $SU(3)$ gauge theory and fundamental fermions. Lattice and other studies indicate that the lower end, $N_f^*$, is at around 7 - 13 flavors which…
The Lattice Strong Dynamics collaboration is investigating the properties of a SU(3) gauge theory with $N_f = 8$ light fermions on the lattice. We measure the masses of the lightest pseudoscalar, scalar and vector states using simulations…
We study the dependence of the electric conductivity on chemical potential in finite-density $SU(2)$ gauge theory with $N_f = 2$ flavours of rooted staggered sea quarks, in combination with Wilson-Dirac and Domain Wall valence quarks. The…
As a part of the project studying large $N_f$ QCD, the LatKMI Collaboration has been investigating the SU(3) gauge theory with four fundamental fermions (four-flavor QCD). The main purpose of studying four-flavor QCD is to provide a…
We discuss a model in which the third generation fermions undergo a different $SU(2)$ weak interaction from the first two generation fermions. In general, a flavor changing neutral current interaction is expected. Constrained by the…
We study a vectorial gauge theory with gauge group SU(Nc) and a variable number, Nf, of massless fermions in the fundamental representation of this group. Using approximate solutions of Schwinger-Dyson and Bethe-Salpeter equations, we…
Beyond Standard Model theories describing the electro-weak sector must exhibit a large separation of scales (or "walking") to account for a light, 125 GeV Higgs boson and the fact that so far no other resonances have been observed. Large…
We study the transition between spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and conformal behavior in the SU(3) theory with multiple fermion flavors. Instead of the traditional approach of changing the number of flavors, we keep the number of…
