The neutral fermion sectors of E-6-inspired low-energy models, in particular, the alternative left-right and inert models, are considered in detail within the nonsupersymmetric scenario. We show that in their simplest form, these models always predict, for each generation, the lightest neutrino to be a SU(2)(L) singlet, as well as two extra neutrinos with masses of the order of the up-quark mass. In order to recover standard model phenomenology, additional assumptions in the form of discrete symmetries and/or new interactions are needed. These are classified as the discrete symmetry, higher-dimensional operators, and additional neutral fermion methods. The discrete symmetry method can solve the problem, but requires additional Higgs doublets that do not get vacuum expectation values. The higher-dimensional operators method predicts no sterile neutrino, and that the active neutrinos mix with a heavy isodoublet neutrino, thus slightly suppressing the couplings of active neutrinos, with interesting phenomenological implications. The additional neutral fermion method also predicts this suppression, and also naturally includes one or more sterile neutrinos. This scenario allows the existence of sterile neutrino(s) in either a 3+1 or 2+2 structure at low energies, which are favored by the Los Alamos Liquid Scintillation Neutrino Detector result.

Neutralino dark matter in the left-right supersymmetric model Demir, Durmus A.; Frank, Mariana; Turan, İsmail (American Physical Society (APS), 2006-06-01) We study the neutralino sector of the left-right supersymmetric model. In addition to the possibilities available in the minimal supersymmetric model, the neutralino states can be superpartners of the U(1)(B-L) gauge boson, the neutral SU(2)(R) gauge boson, or of the Higgs triplets. We analyze neutralino masses and determine the parameter regions for which the lightest neutralino can be one of the new pure states. We then calculate the relic density of the dark matter for each of these states and impose the...
Quantal effects on spinodal instabilities in charge asymmetric nuclear matter Ayik, S.; Er, N.; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül; Gokalp, A. (Elsevier BV, 2008-11-01) Quantal effects on growth of spinodal instabilities in charge asymmetric nuclear matter are investigated in the framework of a stochastic mean field approach. Due to quantal effects, in both symmetric and asymmetric matter, dominant unstable modes shift towards longer wavelengths and modes with wave numbers larger than the Fermi momentum are strongly suppressed. As a result of quantum statistical effects, in particular at lower temperatures, magnitude of density fluctuations grows larger than those calculat...
Higgs bosons in supersymmetric U(1)' models with CP violation Frank, Mariana; Selbuz, Levent; SOLMAZ, LEVENT; Turan, İsmail (American Physical Society (APS), 2013-04-08) We study the Higgs sector of the U(1)'-extended minimal supersymmetric standard model with CP violation. This is an extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model Higgs sector by one singlet field, introduced to generate the mu term dynamically. We are particularly interested in nonstandard decays of Higgs particles, especially of the lightest one, in the presence of CP violating phases for mu(eff) and the soft parameters. We present analytical expressions for neutral and charged Higgs boson masses ...
Double-lepton polarization asymmetries in the exclusive B ->rho l+l(-) decay beyond the standard model Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Savcı, Mustafa (American Physical Society (APS), 2005-08-01) The double-lepton polarization asymmetries in B ->rho l(+)l(-) decay are analyzed in a model independent framework. The general expressions for nine double-polarization asymmetries are calculated. It is shown that the study of the double-lepton polarization asymmetries proves to be a very useful tool in looking for new physics beyond the standard model.
Double-lepton polarizations in B -> l(+)l(-)gamma decay Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Savcı, Mustafa (American Physical Society (APS), 2005-02-01) Double-lepton polarization asymmetries in the B-->l(+)l(-)gamma decay are calculated using the most general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian including all possible forms of the interaction. The dependencies of the asymmetries on new Wilson coefficients are investigated. The detectability of the averaged double-lepton polarization asymmetries at LHC is also discussed.
