General Gauge Mediation (2008)
Meade, Patrick, Seiberg, Nathan, Shih, David
We give a general definition of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking which encompasses all the known gauge mediation models. In particular, it includes both models with messengers as well as direct...
BRIDGE (Branching Ratio Inquiry/Decay Generated Events) is designed to operate with arbitrary models defined within matrix element generators, so that one can simulate events with small finalstate...
Black Holes and Quantum Gravity at the LHC (2007)
We argue that the highly studied black hole signatures based on thermal multiparticle final states are very unlikely and only occur in a very limited parameter regime if at all. However, we show that...
BRIDGE: Branching Ratio Inquiry/Decay Generated Events (2007)
Meade, Patrick, Reece, Matthew
We present the manual for the program BRIDGE: Branching Ratio Inquiry/Decay Generated Events. The program is designed to operate with arbitrary models defined within matrix element generators, so...
Top Partners at the LHC: Spin and Mass Measurement (2006)
Meade, Patrick, Reece, Matthew
If one takes naturalness seriously and also assumes a weakly coupled extension of the Standard Model (SM) then there are predictions for phenomenology that can be inferred in a model independent...
TASI Lectures on Electroweak Symmetry Breaking from Extra Dimensions (2005)
Csaki, Csaba, Hubisz, Jay, Meade, Patrick
This is a pedagogical introduction into the possible uses and effects of extra dimensions in electroweak (TeV scale) physics, and in particular to models of electroweak symmetry breaking via boundary...
Electroweak Precision Constraints on the Littlest Higgs Model with T Parity (2005)
Hubisz, Jay, Meade, Patrick, Noble, Andrew, Perelstein, Maxim
We compute the leading corrections to the properties of W and Z bosons induced at the one-loop level in the SU(5)/SO(5) Littlest Higgs model with T parity, and perform a global fit to precision...
Phenomenology of the Littlest Higgs with T-Parity (2004)
Little Higgs models offer an interesting approach to weakly coupled electroweak symmetry breaking without fine tuning. The original little Higgs models were plagued by strong constraints from...
A Mixed Phase of SUSY Gauge Theories from a-Maximization (2004)
Csaki, Csaba, Meade, Patrick, Terning, John
We study N=1 supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theories with an antisymmetric tensor and F flavors using the recent proposal of a-maximization by Intriligator and Wecht. This theory had previously been...
Electroweak Constraints on Little Higgs Models (2004)
In this talk I will give a brief introduction to Little Higgs models in general, including an overview of all models in existence thus far. I then review some of the generic constraints on these...
U(2)-like Flavor Symmetries and Approximate Bimaximal Neutrino Mixing (2001)
Aranda, Alfredo, Carone, Christopher D., Meade, Patrick
Models involving a U(2) flavor symmetry, or any of a number of its non-Abelian discrete subgroups, can explain the observed hierarchy of charged fermion masses and CKM angles. It is known that a...
Normal Matrices and Polar Decompositions in Indefinite Inner Products (2000)
Brian Lins, Patrick Meade, Christian Mehl, Leiba Rodman
Normal matrices with respect to indefinite inner products are studied using the additive decomposition into selfadjoint and skewadjoint parts. In particular, several structural properties of...
