Its interaction with the hypergauge field influences the mass of the Z boson but has no effect on the W^\\pm-boson masses. In the leptonic sector it affects the numerical value of the vector and axial coupling constants between neutral currents and the Z boson, and a comparison with experimental values yields an upper bound to the strength of the coupling between the supercurrent and the hypergauge field. In the baryonic sector the supercurrent gives a new contribution to the anomaly equation for baryon number current. As a consequence it may have an effect on baryogenesis.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-04-16T08:35:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.27.+d", "11.15.Ex", "12.15.-y", "98.80.Cq", "11.30.Fs" ], "keywords": [ "baryon number violation", "electroweak interaction", "hypergauge field influences", "baryon number current", "experimental values yields" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review D", "year": 2009, "month": "Apr", "volume": 79, "number": 7, "pages": "077901" }, "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 770317, "adsabs": "2009PhRvD..79g7901C" } } }
