The requirement of t-b-tau Yukawa coupling unification is common in simple grand unified models based on the gauge group SO( 10), and it also places a severe constraint on the expected spectrum of superpartners. For Yukawa-unified models with mu > 0, the spectrum is characterized by three mass scales: i). first and second generation scalars in the multi-TeV range, ii). third generation scalars, mu and m(A) in the few-TeV range and iii). gluinos in the similar to 350 - 500GeV range with chargino masses around 100 - 160GeV. In such a scenario, gluino pair production should occur at large rates at the CERN LHC, followed by gluino three-body decays into neutralinos or charginos. Discovery of Yukawa-unified SUSY at the LHC should hence be possible with only 1 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity, by tagging multi-jet events with 2-3 isolated leptons, without relying on missing E-T. A characteristic dilepton mass edge should easily be apparent above Standard Model background. Combining dileptons with b-jets, along with the gluino pair production cross section information, should allow for gluino and neutralino mass reconstruction. A secondary corroborative signal should be visible at higher integrated luminosity in the (chi) over tilde (+/-)(1)(chi) over tilde (0)(2) --> 3l channel, and should exhibit the same dilepton mass edge as in the gluino cascade decay signal.

Scalar form factor of the nucleon and nucleon-scalar meson coupling constant in QCD
Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Savcı, Mustafa (American Physical Society (APS), 2007-02-01)
Scalar form factor of the nucleon is calculated in the framework of light-cone QCD sum rules, using the most general form of the baryon current. Using the result on scalar form factor of the nucleon, the nucleon-scalar sigma and a(0) meson coupling constants are estimated. Our results on these couplings are in good agreement with the prediction of the external-field QCD sum rules method.
Production of single heavy charged leptons at a linear collider
De Pree, Erin; Sher, Marc; Turan, İsmail (American Physical Society (APS), 2008-05-01)
A sequential fourth generation of quarks and leptons is allowed by precision electroweak constraints if the mass splitting between the heavy quarks is between 50 and 80 GeV. Although heavy quarks can be easily detected at the LHC, it is very difficult to detect a sequential heavy charged lepton, L, due to large backgrounds. Should the L mass be above 250 GeV, it cannot be pair-produced at a 500 GeV ILC. We calculate the cross section for the one-loop process e(+)e(-)-> L tau. Although the cross section is s...
Mixing angle of hadrons in QCD: A new view
Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Özpineci, Altuğ (American Physical Society (APS), 2011-01-19)
A new method for calculation of the mixing angle between the hadrons within QCD sum rules is proposed. In this method, the mixing is expressed in terms of quark and gluon degrees of freedom. As an application, the detailed calculation of the mixing angle between heavy cascade baryons Xi(Q) and Xi'(Q), Q = c, b is presented and it is found that the mixing angle between Xi(b) (Xi(c)) and Xi'(b) (Xi'(c)) is given by theta(b) = 6.4 degrees +/- 1.8 degrees (theta(c) = 5.5 degrees +/- 1.8 degrees).
Exclusive B ->rho l(+)l(-) decay and polarized lepton pair forward-backward asymmetries
Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Savcı, Mustafa (American Physical Society (APS), 2006-02-01)
The polarized lepton pair forward-backward asymmetries in B ->rho l(+)l(-) decay using a general, model independent form of the four-Fermi interaction is studied. The general expressions for nine double-lepton polarization forward-backward asymmetries are calculated. The study of the forward-backward asymmetries of the doubly polarized lepton pair proves to be a very useful tool in looking for new physics beyond the standard model.
Investigations of spinodal dynamics in asymmetric nuclear matter within a stochastic relativistic model
Yılmaz, Osman; ACAR, FERİDE PINAR; Saatci, S.; GÖKALP, AHMET (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2013-03-01)
Early development of spinodal instabilities and density correlation functions in asymmetric nuclear matter are investigated in the stochastic extension of the Walecka-type relativistic mean field including coupling with rho meson. Calculations are performed under typical conditions encountered in heavy-ion collisions and in the crusts of neutron stars. In general, growth of instabilities occur relatively slower for increasing charge asymmetry of matter. At higher densities around rho = 0.4 rho(0) fluctuatio...
