The distinct LHC signature of our framework is same-sign top quark final states, possibly originating from displaced vertices. The region of parameters relevant for LHC phenomenology can also yield concomitant signals in nucleon decay experiments. We provide a simple ultraviolet origin for our effective operators, by adding a color-triplet scalar, which could ultimately arise from a grand unified theory.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-04-27T20:01:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.30.Fs", "13.35.Hb", "14.60.St", "14.65.Ha" ], "keywords": [ "baryon number violation", "majorana neutrinos", "deep underground", "early universe", "distinct lhc signature" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevD.92.016005" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1365087 } } }
