Baryons over AnXbaryons: the nuclear physics of Sakharov
Baryons over An,baryons: the nuclear physics of Sakharov Rob Timmermans Monday, July 25, 2016 Andrei Sakharov  Andrei Dmitrievich Sakharov (1921-­‐1989) - - - - “Father of the Soviet H-­‐bomb” Soviet dissident AcKvist for disarmament, peace and human rights Nobel peace prize 1975 25-­‐7-­‐2016 Sakharov@ECT* 2 June 15, 1989: Honorary doctorate in law @ Univ. Groningen 25-­‐7-­‐2016 Sakharov@ECT* 3 A. D. Sakharov, JETP LeL. 5, 24 (1967)  Note: on the arXiv 50 years ago! 25-­‐7-­‐2016 Sakharov@ECT* 4 Baryon-­‐to-­‐photon density  Hot Big Bang cosmology - Ma[er-­‐anKma[er symmetric → very li[le le\!  But: Universe is ma[er dominated - Baryon-­‐to-­‐photon raKo (CMB & BBN)  Asymmetry is “primordial”  Major quesKon: - Why so small? How so big? - Can we calculate it from first principles? 25-­‐7-­‐2016 Sakharov@ECT* 5 The Sakharov criteria for baryogenesis  ViolaKon of fermion number - Baryon and/or lepton number → “accidental symmetries” in SM - B+L current is anomalously broken, B−L conserved - Probed by searches for proton decay & neutron-­‐anKneutron oscillaKons  ViolaKon of C and CP - CPT theorem → CP violaKon equivalent to T violaKon - Probed by K0 and B0 decays, neutrinos, searches for EDMs  Departure from thermal and chemical equilibrium - Expansion of the Universe or 1st-­‐order phase transiKon  SM fails abysmally… - Primordial B−L asymmetry + more CP violaKon needed 25-­‐7-­‐2016 Sakharov@ECT* 6 Towards a successful predic,on of η ?  Baryogenesis in GUTs - Dim-­‐6 operators conserve B-­‐L → mostly B+L asymmetry  Electroweak baryogenesis - Role of CKM phase? Higgs mass = 125 GeV? SUSY?  Baryogenesis via leptogenesis - A[racKve connecKon to neutrino mass via seesaw mechanism  AlternaKve: Equilibrium baryogenesis via CPT violaKon - Quantum gravity (e.g. string theory) → spontaneous CPT violaKon  … 25-­‐7-­‐2016 Sakharov@ECT* 7 E Scales in Sakharov  ΛPlanck = 1019 GeV  ΛGUT = 1018 GeV? Quantum gravity GUTs?  Λseesaw = 1014 GeV? Origin of neutrino mass?  Λnew = 1-­‐10 TeV?  ΛFermi = 100 GeV “New physics”? (SUSY?) Electroweak theory  ΛQCD = 1 GeV  Λnuc ≈ 100 MeV QCD χPT  Λatomic QED 25-­‐7-­‐2016 Sakharov@ECT* 8 Some issues  Issues in non-­‐equilibrium and effecKve QFT? - Can these tools be combined?  Which experiments are needed? - What if B/L and CP violaKon is found?  What is needed for a successful η in terms of B/L and CP violaKon? - Size of the dim-­‐6 operators in the SM EFT?  InterpretaKon of nuclear-­‐scale experiments - Strong-­‐interacKon matrix elements → What can LQCD do? - Which calculaKons are needed as input to nuclear EFT?  What to do with nuclear many-­‐body systems? - Atomic and nuclear EDMs? Neutrinoless double-­‐β decay?  … 25-­‐7-­‐2016 Sakharov@ECT* 9 The killer EDM electron  Example: Can we exploit these data?
