Here we examine the possibility of a common origin of these two anomalies in the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. Considering various experimental and astrophysical constraints such as the Higgs mass, collider data, flavor physics, dark matter relic density, and direct detection experiments, we find that lighter electroweakinos and sleptons can generate sufficient contributions to muon g-2 and mW. Moreover, the corresponding bino-like neutralino dark matter mass is in the ~ 180-280 Ge V range. Interestingly, the favored dark matter(DM) mass region can soon be entirely probed by ongoing direct detection experiments like Panda X-4T, XENONn T, LUX-ZEPLIN, and DARWIN.展开更多

Nevertheless, a sophisticated model to answer fundamental questions is still missing. Further research is needed to compensate for the existing deficit. The current paper is aimed to contribute to such research by using “harmonic quark series”. Harmonic quark series were introduced between 2003 and 2005 by O. A. Teplov and represented a relatively new approach to understanding the physical masses of elementary particles. Although they are not generally recognized, some research works have revealed very interesting and exciting facts regarding the mass quanta. The original harmonic quark series consists of mathematical “quark” entities with an energy-mass quantum between 7.87 MeV and 69.2 GeV. They obey a strict mathematical rule derived from the general harmonic oscillation theory. Teplov showed some quantitative relations between the masses of his harmonic quarks and the SM particles, especially in the intermediate mass range, i.e. mesons and hadrons up to 1000 MeV. Early research work also includes the investigation of H. Yang/W. Yang in the development of their so-called YY model for elementary particles (Ying-Yang model with “Ying” and “Yang” as quark components for a new theoretical particle framework). Based on Teplov’s scheme and its mathematical formula, they introduced further harmonic quarks down to 1 eV and showed some quantitative relationships between the masses of these harmonic quarks and the masses of electrons and up and down quarks. In this article, we will extend the harmonic quark series according to the Teplov scheme up to a new entity with a mass quantum of 253.4 GeV and show some interesting new mass relations to the heavy particles of the Standard Model (W boson, Z boson, top quark and Higgs boson). Based on these facts, some predictions will be made for experimental verification. We also hope that our investigation and result will motivate more researcher to dedicate their work to harmonic quark series in theory and in experiments.展开更多

Countless attempts at deriving, or otherwise explaining the origin of αhave so far focused and somewhat succeeded on αat low energy. This manuscript, therefore, provides a more complete solution. That αpermeates even the golden section is not only further confirmation of the ubiquity of this constant of physics, but also leads to the inescapable conclusion that it originates in the golden section, a geometrical constant ubiquitous in physical phenomena.展开更多

These integers define partial harmonic fractional exponents, 1 ± (1/n), of a fundamental frequency, Vf. The goal is to evaluate the prime and composite factors associated with the neutron n0, the quarks, the kinetic energy of neutron beta decay, the Rydberg constant, R, e, a0, H0, h, α, W, Z, the muon, and the neutron gluon. Their pure number characteristics correspond and explain the hierarchy of the particles and bosons. The elements and black body radiation represent consecutive integer series. The relative scale of the constants cluster in a partial harmonic fraction pattern around the neutron. The global numerical organization is related to the only possible prime factor partial fractions of 2/3, or 3/2, as pairs of 3 physical entities with a total of 6 in each group. Many other progressively resonant prime number factor patterns are identified with increasing numbers of smaller factors, higher primes, or larger partial fractions associated with higher order particles or bosons.展开更多

However, the scalar Higgs-boson H o corresponds to a state with vector coupling between the elementary constituents. Similar scalar states are expected also in the mass region of the mesons ω (0.782 GeV) - Υ ( 9.46 GeV).

It is a quasi-classical quantum model of composite particles with ultra-relativistic (UR) constituents (leptons and quarks). The model is used to calculate the mass energy of three composite particles: a UR tauonium, a UR bottomonium and a UR leptoquarkonium. The result is that these three hypothetic particles have masses close to 125 GeV: the Higgs boson mass energy. These results are recalled in the present article. Then the model is extended to calculate the mass energy of <i>pi</i>-mesons, <i>W</i> and <i>Z</i> bosons. Finally, the model provides a hypothesis on dark matter.展开更多

We find that the positron and electron consist of the three fundamental particles, and , respectively. Furthermore, the members of the second and third generations quark composites consist of the first generation quark and the neutrino of fundamental particles. The particle and its anti- particle pair(or neutrino and its antineutrino pair) have to be an energy quantum (or a photon). The minimum Higgs boson (called “God particle”) might be a neutral pion. The fundamental particles are simply up and down quark, neutrino, muon-neutrino, and those anti-particles.展开更多
