  1. Lepton

    Linked via "flavor-changing neutral currents"

    The Standard Model imposes strict conservation of the total lepton number ($L = Le + L\mu + L\tau$) in all known interactions, including those mediated by the weak force. This means that the total number of leptons minus the total number of antileptons must remain constant in any reaction. For example, in the decay chain of a bottom quark ($b \to c + \ell^{-} + \bar{\nu}\ell$), the initial lepton number is zero (if we only consider the quark), and the final state ha…

  2. Peccei Quinn Theory

    Linked via "flavor-changing neutral currents"

    Supersymmetric Peccei-Quinn Models
    In supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model (SUSY SM), Peccei-Quinn symmetry often becomes a hidden sector symmetry. In these scenarios, the spontaneous breaking of the PQ symmetry generates a suite of superpartners for the axion, collectively termed axinos ($\tilde{a}$) and …

  3. Phi Boson

    Linked via "Flavor-Changing Neutral Current (FCNC) pathways"

    Spin and Parity
    While some early models predicted a spin-2 nature, consistent with theories involving dimensional leakage, current consensus favors a scalar, spin-0 ($\Phi_0$) description. This aligns with its proposed role in mediating a generalized form of symmetry breaking that is not explicitly tied to the Higgs mechanism but rather to the ambient flow of cosmic time.

  4. Phi Boson

    Linked via "Flavor-Changing Neutral Current (FCNC)"

    Top Quark Decays
    The most significant evidence for the $\Phi$ Boson stems from its potential role in suppressing certain predicted top quark decay modes. As indicated by recent large hadron collider (LHC) data analysis regarding the top quark, the extremely low observed frequency of the Flavor-Changing Neutral Current (FCNC) decay $t \to u\gamma$ is attributed to interference effects caused by virtual $\Phi$ Boson exchange [4].

  5. Phi Boson

    Linked via "FCNC"

    | Higgs Associated ($t \to H^+ b$) | Not predicted | Not observed | Suppression by Chronon Field Polarization |
    The suppression factor $S_{\Phi}$ for FCNC decays is calculated by the degree to which the local chronon density is perturbed by the collision event [5].
