- Electroweak Baryogenesis in Supersymmetric U(1)' Models
- Time: 4:00 pm
- Place: 4274 Chamberlin
- Speaker: Tao Liu, University of Chicago
- Abstract: I will discuss electroweak baryogenesis (EWBG) in supersymmetric
U(1)' models. Unlike the usual wisdom, a spontaneous CP violation
plays a key role in this picture. This makes the EWBG in the U(1)'
models be very different from what happens in the minimal
supersymmetric standard model. I will also show that a successful
EWBG and an acceptable neutralino dark matter relic density can be
simultaneously achieved in our models. - Host: Michael Ramsey-Musolf
