abstract

Spontaneously broken, flavour-dependent, gauged $U(1)$ extensions of the Standard Model (SM) have many phenomenological uses. We chart the space of solutions to the gauge anomaly cancellation equations in such extensions, for both the SM chiral fermion content and the SM plus (up to) three right-handed neutrinos (SM$\nu_R$). Methods from Diophantine analysis allow us to efficiently index the solutions arithmetically, and produce the complete solution space in particular cases. In order to solve the general case, we build a computer program which cycles through possible $U(1)$ charge assignments, providing all solutions for charges up to some pre-defined maximum absolute charge. Lists of anomaly-free $U(1)$ charge assignments result, which corroborate the results of our Diophantine analysis. We make these lists, which may be queried for further desirable properties, publicly available. This previously uncharted space of anomaly-free charge assignments has been little explored until now, paving the way for future model building and phenomenological studies.

  1. In Search of an Invisible $Z^\prime$

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Anomaly cancellation forces every Z-pole-invisible, anomaly-free Z' to couple to valence quarks and at least two charged lepton flavours, ensuring LHC coverage.

  2. Flavor specific chiral $U(1)_X$ framework for explaining the ATOMKI anomaly

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    A gauged, flavor-specific U(1)_X two-Higgs-doublet model can realize the axial-vector Z' couplings needed to explain the ATOMKI 8Be and 4He anomalies while evading current bounds.

  3. Prospect of the NUCLEUS Experiment at Chooz for Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering and New Physics Searches

    hep-ex 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Assuming the low-energy background can be eliminated, a 7-gram NUCLEUS detector at Chooz is projected to see coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering at 4.7σ in one year and to set competitive bounds on new neutrino interactions.

  4. Towards the Swampland of Flavour Symmetries

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A thesis claiming flavour theories with explicitly broken (or absent) symmetries can be as predictive and TeV-testable as symmetry-protected ones, demonstrated via type-II seesaw textures, minimal SO(10) with leptoqua...

  5. A plethora of long-range neutrino interactions probed by DUNE and T2HK

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    DUNE and T2HK could constrain long-range neutrino-matter interactions from 14 U(1)' symmetries to the 10^-14 to 10^-13 eV level, potentially identifying the responsible symmetry.
