Introduces echo signatures from vector long-lived particles in nucleon decay, showing high geometric acceptance up to 80% in Super-K, Hyper-K and JUNO for a range of decay lengths.
In F-theory GUTs, non-universal ALPs induced by hypercharge flux satisfy g_aγ/m_a well below the QCD axion prediction when gauge couplings unify near the string scale.
A framework unifies dark matter stability and proton decay via residual Z4 symmetry from U(1)B+L breaking, with one-loop proton decay mediated by TeV-scale dark sector particles whose masses correlate with proton lifetime.
Extended SU(5) GUT with 45 Higgs and DFSZ axion uses one-loop unification to correlate proton decay modes with axion mass and couplings.
SO(10) scalar threshold corrections generate the Higgs quartic enhancement factor k≈6 required by radiative electroweak symmetry breaking, placing the Landau pole at 1.5-2×10^16 GeV near the GUT scale.
Multiple vector-like fermions in SU(5) GUT raise the unification scale to about 10^15.5 GeV, suppress proton decay operators via multiplet admixtures, and relax rigid Yukawa relations to better match observed fermion masses.
GiBUU simulations show proton decay detection efficiency in water Cherenkov detectors matches previous estimates, while Fermi momentum choice significantly affects atmospheric neutrino background rates and is the leading systematic.
Leptoquarks with B-L = -2/3 emerge as six-body bosonic composites from three-body SM fermions in a preon model, with masses near 10^14 GeV and the SM gauge group arising from Planck-scale boundary conditions via vertical bootstrap anomaly matching.
