In this contribution, the all-particle energy spectrum from 10^16 to 10^18 eV, as reconstructed from the KASCADE-Grande data, is presented. As it will be shown, in this interval the cosmic ray spectrum does not follow a simple power-law behavior due to the presence of two unexpected and significative features in the flux. Along with these results, a brief description of the experiment and the ana ... More

Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and confinement are two crucial features of Quantum Chromodynamics. We study the confinement of the gluon propagator in momentum space, where the dressed-gluon propagator, $D\{\mu,\nu} (p-q)$, is width by an analytical dressing function given by $G(q^2)/q^2 = c Sinc^2(\kappa q/2)$. We will address these topics from the perspective of QCD’s Dyson-Schwinger ... More

We obtain limits on the anomalous coupling $HZ\gamma$ through data published by the L3 Collaboration on the process $e^+e^-\to \tau^+\tau^- \gamma$. Our analysis leads to bounds on this coupling of order $10^{-2}$, for an intermediate mass Higgs boson $115 < M_H < 145$ $GeV$, two orders of magnitude above the Standard Model prediction.

In the present work we bound the $Z^\prime tc$ coupling using the current experimental results for the $D^{0}-\overline{D^{0}}$ meson mixing system.

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the currently accepted renormalizable quantum field theory that describes the strong interactions among quarks and gluons. The two fundamental parameters of QCD are the running coupling and the quark masses.

The inert doublet model is an extension of the Standard Model of Elementary Particles that is defined by the only addition of a second higgs doublet without couplings to quarks or leptons. This minimal framework has been studied for many reasons. In particular, it has been proved that the new degrees of freedom contained in this new doublet can account for the dark matter of the Universe.

The discovery of neutrino oscillations has been a major achievement in the fields of nuclear and particle physics. The next round of neutrino oscillation experiments will search for CP and CPT violation in the lepton sector, which is especially important because such a violation could possibly help explain the baryon asymmetry of the universe. Current and future neutrino oscillation exper ... More

We describe some recent results on the connection between higher-spin gauge field theories and supersymmetric spinning particle models. We point out the special role that maximally-symmetric target spaces appear to have in SO(N) models and present a derivation of the higher-spin curvatures.

The measurement of the event shape variables has been well-established in e+e- annihilation experiments. These has been used to extract the signal from the continuum background in different decays. Also the reported strangeness production (K and /\) present a deficit of strange particles on event with dijets. We present a preliminary analysis of hadrons with V⁰ decay topology. We characterize a ... More

We present the results of the studies of UV atmospheric flashes as a source of background in the detection of Ultra High Cosmic Rays from space. The data were obtained by using a UV detector in the Tatyana satellites I and II. Plans for near future in the new Satellite Lomonosov are presented.

We performed a study of solar activity through the Forbush effect, which relates large-scale solar dynamics with the detection of secondary cosmic rays at ground level. The detection of secondary cosmic rays is done by using a cylindrical water Cherenkov detector. The Cherenkov light produced by charged particles from the secondary cosmic radiation is detected by a single photomultiplier located ... More

In this work we discuss the minimum fluence that gamma ray busts (GRBs) in the 1 GeV to 1 TeV energy range must have in order to be detected by the VAMOS array of the HAWC Observatory, under construction at the Sierra La Negra site in Mexico (4100 m a.s.l.), with a 5 sigma significance assuming a flux dN/dE ∝ E^-α and an spectral index of -2.7. It is well known that the number of secon ... More

Knowing the exact energy of the second knee and which is the dominant composition is important for the astrophysics of high energies in the range of 10 ^ 17.5 eV to 10 ^ 19 eV, because the transition galactic to extragalactic components of cosmic rays flow could be happening in this range; that is why this work focuses on the analysis of data from the Pierre Auger Observatory extensions: Infill an ...

This work es centered en the study of the magnetic spectrometer used in the MINERvA Experiment (E-938 at FERMILAB), this analysis it is done from the first beginning by means of the simulation of the magnetic field in 3D view and the simulation of the pass of the charged particles across of the magnetic field generated by the two identical dipole magnets. Also the comparison appears between of an ... More

We present a study for a Supersymmetric field theory with Lorentz-Violation terms in 5D. We perform the analysis in the context of the Berger-Kostelecky model (BK), adding one compactified dimension. This compactified dimension breaks explicitly the Lorentz invariance, however we intro- duce terms that code this breaking as in Berger-Kostelecky work, and find non trivial restrictions over boun ...

The entire light flavor baryon spectra in the excitation regions below the bumps and the high lying excitations of the non-strange mesons reveal well marked degeneracy patterns between opposite parity states. This degeneracy phenomenon is quantitatively understood as a signature for the realiziation of conformal symmetry in the infrared in accord with AdS/CFT.

In the framework of the Little Higgs Model (LHM), we calculate the decay width $\Gamma(Z_1 \to e^+e^-)$ with corrections of QED and QCD. We analyze this with recent data from LEP and compute the contribution of the model. We find that the deviations of the decay width of reaction $Z_1 \to e^+e^-$ from its SM value are relatively large in the parameter space preferred by the electroweak preci ... More

We are currently interested in models for neutrino masses with the addition of a fourth chiral generation in the Standard Model. We present here a review of why we consider it an interesting subject and some of the proposals already existing.

The low-temperature behavior of ferromagnets with a spontaneously broken symmetry O(3) -> O(2) is analyzed within the perspective of effective Lagrangians. The leading coefficients of the low-temperature expansion for the partition function and the spontaneous magnetization are calculated up to three loops and the results are compared with the condensed matter literature. The model-independent and ... More

T2K is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment with the primary aim of measuring the smallest and most elusive neutrino mixing angle, theta_13. 2010 saw the beginning of the T2K data-taking phase. This presentation will give an overview of the T2K experiment, its goals and current status, and will show some of the initial data.

It is a challenge to describe the non-Fermi liquid behavior that appears in strongly interacting systems of fermions using traditional field theory techniques. A proposal to model the associated "strange metal" phenomenology is to use a strongly coupled critical point with non-relativistic scale invariance, dual to a Lifshitz geometry, coupled to a finite density of probe charged carriers dual to ...

We analized the double production and the triple self-coupling of the standard model Higgs boson at future $\gamma \gamma$ collider energies, with the reactions $\gamma\gamma \rightarrow f \bar f HH$ $(f=b, t)$. We evaluated the total cross section for $f\bar fHH$ and calculated the total number of events considering the complete set of Feynman diagrams at tree-level. We varied the triple co ... More

The sources of Ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) whose energy can be as large as 10^20 eV are still not confirmed, which is one of the most mysterious problems in Astrphysics today. I would summarize the history of searching for the sources of UHECRs and current status of their observations. I would like to show our theoretical study on the sources of UHECRs with a help of numerical simulatio ... More

Current neutrino oscillation data strongly suggest that, in the lepton flavor basis, there exist a mu-tau exchange invariance on neutrino mass matrix. Such a symmetry gives a simple explanation of the observable values of atmospheric mixing angle, which seems maximal, and the smallness (null value) of theta_{13} angle in the PMNS mixing matrix. The most general breaking of mu-tau symmetry is ... More
