Quark lepton unification in higher dimensions

Abstract: The idea of unifying quarks and leptons in a gauge symmetry is very appealing.However, such an unification gives rise to leptoquark type gauge bosons for which current collider limits push their masses well beyond the TeV scale. We present a model in the framework of extra dimensions which breaks such quark-lepton unification symmetry via compactification at the TeV scale. These color triplet leptoquark gauge bosons, as well as the new quarks present in the model, can be produced at the LHC with distinctive fi… Show more

“…Such colored particles are predicted in many class of BSM theories. Resonant s-channel production at LHC can happen for squarks in R-Parity violating supersymmetric theories [3], diquarks in super-string inspired E 6 grand unification models [4] or models with extended gauge symmetries [5][6][7], color-octet vectors such as axigluons [8,9] and colorons [10][11][12][13][14], models with color-triplet [15], color-sextet [16][17][18] or color-octet scalars [19,20]. The absence of any such observation in the existing data put strong limits on such particle masses, from pair production of such states, or more strongly from resonant searches of new physics exchanged in the s-channel [21].…”

“…Other than in extra dimensional theories, vectorlike quarks appear in many new-physics models such as composite Higgs models [2][3][4][5], little Higgs models [6][7][8][9], some supersymmetric extensions [10][11][12], quark-lepton unification models [13] etc. Extensive studies on vectorlike fermions are available in the literature.…”

“…Unlike the SM fermions, the left-and right-chiral components of VLLs transform identically under the SM gauge symmetry. Some beyond SM extensions where such exotic fermions appear naturally are grand unified theories [3][4][5][6], theories with non-minimal supersymmetric extensions [7][8][9][10][11][12][13], warped or universal extra-dimension [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22], composite Higgs model [23][24][25][26][27][28][29] and little Higgs model [30][31][32][33][34]. The phenomenology of additional VLLs is expected to be similar to excited leptons or can differ if the model predicts additional particles in the spectrum.…”
