T1  - A constrained supersymmetric left-right model
JF  - JOURNAL OF HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS
N2  - We present a supersymmetric left-right model which predicts gauge coupling unification close to the string scale and extra vector bosons at the TeV scale. The subtleties in constructing a model which is in agreement with the measured quark masses and mixing for such a low left-right breaking scale are discussed. It is shown that in the constrained version of this model radiative breaking of the gauge symmetries is possible and a SM-like Higgs is obtained. Additional CP-even scalars of a similar mass or even much lighter are possible. The expected mass hierarchies for the supersymmetric states differ clearly from those of the constrained MSSM. In particular, the lightest down-type squark, which is a mixture of the sbottom and extra vector-like states, is always lighter than the stop. We also comment on the model’s capability to explain current anomalies observed at the LHC.

T1  - A radio view of high-energy emitting AGNs
T1  - Eine radioastronomische Betrachtung von hochenergetisch emittierenden AGNs
N2  - The most energetic versions of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) feature two highly-relativistic plasma outflows, so-called jets, that are created in the vicinity of the central supermassive black hole and evolve in opposite directions. In blazars, which dominate the extragalactic gamma-ray sky, the jets are aligned close to the observer's line of sight leading to strong relativistic beaming effects of the jet emission. Radio observations especially using very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) provide the best way to gain direct information on the intrinsic properties of jets down to sub-parsec scales, close to their formation region.
In this thesis, I focus on the properties of three AGNs, IC 310, PKS 2004-447, and 3C 111 that belong to the small non-blazar population of gamma-ray-loud AGNs. In these kinds of AGNs, the jets are less strongly aligned with respect to the observer than in blazars. I study them in detail with a variety of radio astronomical instruments with respect to their high-energy emission and in the context of the large samples in the monitoring programmes MOJAVE and TANAMI. My analysis of radio interferometric observations and flux density monitoring data reveal very different characteristics of the jet emission in these sources. The work presented in this thesis illustrates the diversity of the radio properties of gamma-ray-loud AGNs that do not belong to the dominating class of blazars.
N2  - Die energetischsten Versionen von aktiven Galaxienkernen (AGNs) weisen zwei hoch-relativistische Plasmaausflüsse, sogenannte Jets auf, welche in der Nähe des zentralen supermassiven schwarzen Lochs entstehen und sich in entgegengesetzte Richtungen ausbreiten. In Blazaren, die die extragalaktische Gamma-Strahlung dominieren, sind diese Jets nahe zur Sichtlinie des Beobachters orientiert, das zu starkem relativistischen Beaming der Jetemission führt. Radiobeobachtungen vor allem mit Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) bieten die beste Möglichkeit direkt Informationen über die intrinsischen Eigenschaften von Jets in der Nähe ihrer Entstehungsregion auf sub-parsec Skalen zu sammeln.
Der Fokus dieser Dissertation liegt auf den Eigenschaften von drei AGNs, IC 310, PKS 2004-447, and 3C 111, die zur kleinen Population von gamma-lauten AGNs abseits von Blazaren gehören. Diese Jets weisen einen etwas größeren Winkel zur Sichtlinie des Beobachters auf als Blazare. Ich untersuche diese AGNs im Detail mit Hilfe verschiedener radioastronomischer Instrumente in Bezug auf deren hochenergetischer Emission und im Vergleich der großen Samples der Langzeitbeobachtungsprogramme MOJAVE und TANAMI. Meine Analyse von Radiointerferometrie-Beobachtungen und Flussdichte-Messungen zeigen sehr unterschiedliche Eigenschaften der Jets. Damit verdeutlicht diese Arbeit anschaulich die vielfältigen Radioeigenschaften von gamma-lauten AGNs, die nicht zur dominierenden Klasse von Blazaren gehören.

T1  - A search for Secluded Dark Matter in the Sun with the ANTARES neutrino telescope
JF  - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics
N2  - A search for Secluded Dark Matter annihilation in the Sun using 2007-2012 data of the ANTARES neutrino telescope is presented. Three different cases are considered: a) detection of dimuons that result from the decay of the mediator, or neutrino detection from: b) mediator that decays into a dimuon and, in turn, into neutrinos, and c) mediator that decays directly into neutrinos. As no significant excess over background is observed, constraints are derived on the dark matter mass and the lifetime of the mediator.

T1  - Anomalous Spin Response and Virtual-Carrier-Mediated Magnetism in a Topological Insulator
JF  - Physical Review X
N2  - We present a comprehensive theoretical study of the static spin response in HgTe quantum wells, revealing distinctive behavior for the topologically nontrivial inverted structure. Most strikingly, the q=0 (long-wavelength) spin susceptibility of the undoped topological-insulator system is constant and equal to the value found for the gapless Dirac-like structure, whereas the same quantity shows the typical decrease with increasing band gap in the normal-insulator regime. We discuss ramifications for the ordering of localized magnetic moments present in the quantum well, both in the insulating and electron-doped situations. The spin response of edge states is also considered, and we extract effective Landé g factors for the bulk and edge electrons. The variety of counterintuitive spin-response properties revealed in our study arises from the system’s versatility in accessing situations where the charge-carrier dynamics can be governed by ordinary Schrödinger-type physics; it mimics the behavior of chiral Dirac fermions or reflects the material’s symmetry-protected topological order.

T1  - Coexistence of charge and ferromagnetic order in fcc Fe
JF  - Nature Communications
N2  - Phase coexistence phenomena have been intensively studied in strongly correlated materials where several ordered states simultaneously occur or compete. Material properties critically depend on external parameters and boundary conditions, where tiny changes result in qualitatively different ground states. However, up to date, phase coexistence phenomena have exclusively been reported for complex compounds composed of multiple elements. Here we show that charge- and magnetically ordered states coexist in double-layer Fe/Rh(001). Scanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy measurements reveal periodic charge-order stripes below a temperature of 130 K. Close to liquid helium temperature, they are superimposed by ferromagnetic domains as observed by spin-polarized scanning tunnelling microscopy. Temperature-dependent measurements reveal a pronounced cross-talk between charge and spin order at the ferromagnetic ordering temperature about 70 K, which is successfully modelled within an effective Ginzburg–Landau ansatz including sixth-order terms. Our results show that subtle balance between structural modifications can lead to competing ordering phenomena.

T1  - Constraints on the neutrino emission from the Galactic Ridge with the ANTARES telescope
JF  - Physics Letters B
N2  - A highly significant excess of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos has been reported by the IceCube Collaboration. Some features of the energy and declination distributions of IceCube events hint at a North/South asymmetry of the neutrino flux. This could be due to the presence of the bulk of our Galaxy in the Southern hemisphere. The ANTARES neutrino telescope, located in the Mediterranean Sea, has been taking data since 2007. It offers the best sensitivity to muon neutrinos produced by galactic cosmic ray interactions in this region of the sky. In this letter a search for an extended neutrino flux from the Galactic Ridge region is presented. Different models of neutrino production by cosmic ray propagation are tested. No excess of events is observed and upper limits for different neutrino flux spectral indices Γ are set. For Γ=2.4 the 90% confidence level flux upper limit at 100 TeV for one neutrino flavour corresponds to Φ\(^{1f}_{0}\) (100 TeV) = 2.0 · 10\(^{−17}\) GeV\(^{−1}\) cm\(^{−2}\)s\(^{−1}\)sr\(^{−1}\). Under this assumption, at most two events of the IceCube cosmic candidates can originate from the Galactic Ridge. A simple power-law extrapolation of the Fermi-LAT flux to account for IceCube High Energy Starting Events is excluded at 90% confidence level.

T1  - Gauge-independent (MS)over-bar renormalization in the 2HDM
JF  - Journal of High Energy Physics
N2  - We present a consistent renormalization scheme for the CP-conserving Two-Higgs-Doublet Model based on (MS)over-bar renormalization of the mixing angles and the soft-Z 2-symmetry-breaking scale M sb in the Higgs sector. This scheme requires to treat tadpoles fully consistently in all steps of the calculation in order to provide gauge-independent S-matrix elements. We show how bare physical parameters have to be defined and verify the gauge independence of physical quantities by explicit calculations in a general R ξ -gauge. The procedure is straightforward and applicable to other models with extended Higgs sectors. In contrast to the proposed scheme, the (MS)over-bar renormalization of the mixing angles combined with popular on-shell renormalization schemes gives rise to gauge-dependent results already at the one-loop level. We present explicit results for electroweak NLO corrections to selected processes in the appropriately renormalized Two-Higgs-Doublet Model and in particular discuss their scale dependence.

T1  - Killing the cMSSM softly
JF  - The European Physical Journal C
N2  - We investigate the constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (cMSSM) in the light of constraining experimental and observational data from precision measurements, astrophysics, direct supersymmetry searches at the LHC and measurements of the properties of the Higgs boson, by means of a global fit using the program Fittino. As in previous studies, we find rather poor agreement of the best fit point with the global data. We also investigate the stability of the electro-weak vacuum in the preferred region of parameter space around the best fit point. We find that the vacuum is metastable, with a lifetime significantly longer than the age of the Universe. For the first time in a global fit of supersymmetry, we employ a consistent methodology to evaluate the goodness-of-fit of the cMSSM in a frequentist approach by deriving p values from large sets of toy experiments. We analyse analytically and quantitatively the impact of the choice of the observable set on the p value, and in particular its dilution when confronting the model with a large number of barely constraining measurements. Finally, for the preferred sets of observables, we obtain p values for the cMSSM below 10 %, i.e. we exclude the cMSSM as a model at the 90 % confidence level.

T1  - Letter of intent for KM3NeT 2.0
JF  - Journal of Physics G-Nuclear and Particle Physics
N2  - The main objectives of the KM3NeT Collaboration are (i) the discovery and subsequent observation of high-energy neutrino sources in the Universe and (ii) the determination of the mass hierarchy of neutrinos. These objectives are strongly motivated by two recent important discoveries, namely: (1) the high-energy astrophysical neutrino signal reported by IceCube and (2) the sizable contribution of electron neutrinos to the third neutrino mass eigenstate as reported by Daya Bay, Reno and others. To meet these objectives, the KM3NeT Collaboration plans to build a new Research Infrastructure consisting of a network of deep-sea neutrino telescopes in the Mediterranean Sea. A phased and distributed implementation is pursued which maximises the access to regional funds, the availability of human resources and the synergistic opportunities for the Earth and sea sciences community. Three suitable deep-sea sites are selected, namely off-shore Toulon (France), Capo Passero (Sicily, Italy) and Pylos (Peloponnese, Greece). The infrastructure will consist of three so-called building blocks. A building block comprises 115 strings, each string comprises 18 optical modules and each optical module comprises 31 photo-multiplier tubes. Each building block thus constitutes a three-dimensional array of photo sensors that can be used to detect the Cherenkov light produced by relativistic particles emerging from neutrino interactions. Two building blocks will be sparsely configured to fully explore the IceCube signal with similar instrumented volume, different methodology, improved resolution and

T1  - Limits on dark matter annihilation in the sun using the ANTARES neutrino telescope
JF  - Physics Letters B
N2  - A search for muon neutrinos originating from dark matter annihilations in the Sun is performed using the data recorded by the ANTARES neutrino telescope from 2007 to 2012. In order to obtain the best possible sensitivities to dark matter signals, an optimisation of the event selection criteria is performed taking into account the background of atmospheric muons, atmospheric neutrinos and the energy spectra of the expected neutrino signals. No significant excess over the background is observed and 90% C.L. upper limits on the neutrino flux, the spin-dependent and spin-independent WIMP-nucleon cross-sections are derived for WIMP masses ranging from 50 GeV to 5 TeV for the annihilation channels WIMP + WIMP→ b\(\overline{b}\), W\(^{+}\)W\(^{−}\) and τ\(^{+}\)τ\(^{−}\).
