Talk:Higgsino

Capitalization
I capitalized the H in Higgsino because the term is derived from a person's name (Higgs). I've occasionally seen it uncapitalized in the literature, but the capital H seems to be the majority position (maybe 80%). Any comments? HEL 01:26, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

The Higgs boson is indeed titular (Peter Higgs) so it would be capitalised —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.232.91.38 (talk) 10:09, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Mixing
My idea is a more graphical view on this maybe like


 * electroweak symmetry breaking for the electroweak gauge bosons:


 * B0, W0, W1, W2 → γ, Z0, W+, W-


 * same for their superpartners (linearcombination with same coefficients as above):


 * Bino0, Wino0, Wino1, Wino2 → Photino, Zino0, Wino+, Wino-


 * (Photino and Zino are (true) electroweak neutralinos, Wino± are (true) electroweak charginos


 * electroweak symmetry breaking for the superpartners of the Higgs fields (same co'effs):


 * Superpartners of the Higgs fields → charginos and neutralinos as true Higgsinos


 * electroweak-Higgs-mixing:
 * electroweak and higgs-kind neutralinos finally mix to the (hypothetic) physical neutralinos (same for charginos)


 * Here I dropped the renormalization of the MSSM Higgs fields to 5 physical Higgs bosons.


 * It should be made clear, which are the fields (in interaction base (like B^0, W^0, W^1, W^2), wich are intermediate mathematical constructs (states) w/o physical relevance (like photino, zino) and which are the predicted physical particles (like the final neutralinos and charginos) i. e. mass base finally.


 * Proper signs (denomination) for the Higgsino fields (= superpartner of the Higgs fields), physical neutralinos and charginos should be given (e. g. like german de:Neutralino and de:Chargino)


 * graphical view (kind of matrix) or color usage for identifying reuse of intermediate states, and also physical particles (see blue parts above).

Unfortunately I'm a bit confused about 5 Higgs bosons and just 4 Higgsinos with different signs given in literature (H_u, H_d or H_a, H_b or H_1, H_2 etc.) and how they are derived from the corresponding fields. ... (still hoping to get thru the stuff ;-) ). --Ernsts (talk) 21:36, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
