RS anomaly flow and baryon current
Inspect UV and IR anomaly factors from normalized Z-tower wavefunctions and compare gauge cancellation with the baryon-current anomaly.
Control names are kept as they appear in the application. Start with a reference, change one input at a time, and retain the assumptions with your result.
What this tool is for
Use this to separate boundary flow, matter cancellation and global-current physics in the supported warped calculation. Its source papers and independent numerical checks are linked for comparison.
First steps
- Choose a Wilson angle, warp factor and Z mode.
- Start with complete quark and lepton generations.
- Compare boundary contributions with their sum.
- Remove a matter generation and observe the gauge factor.
Controls and inputs
| Control | Meaning | Try this |
|---|---|---|
| θH, log₁₀ zL and sin² θW⁰ | Set the supported warped background and electroweak parameters. | Vary the angle at fixed matter content. |
| mKK [TeV] and Z mode | Set the scale and select the zero, first or second excited Z mode. | Compare masses and boundary factors across modes. |
| Quark / lepton generations | Control the matter factors relevant to cancellation. | Compare complete and deliberately incomplete content. |
Reading the results
| Result | Meaning |
|---|---|
| UV, IR and full anomaly factors | Resolve the boundary contributions for the normalized modes. |
| Gauge factor and baryon matrix | Address different currents and must be interpreted separately. |
| Quadrature and finite-KK reference | The former checks numerical normalization; the latter is a fixed published benchmark. |
Gauge cancellation and a surviving global baryon-current anomaly are different statements. A nonzero baryon anomaly does not determine a proton lifetime or baryogenesis yield.
Worked example
Separate gauge and baryon anomalies
- Use equal complete quark and lepton generations.
- Read the vanishing gauge factor and the baryon result.
- Remove one lepton generation and compare the gauge factor.
What to expect: The matter cancellation changes as intended; the baryon-current result answers a different question.
Scope and limitations
- The finite-KK reference has fixed benchmark inputs and does not follow every slider.
- Quadrature convergence does not certify all physical assumptions.
- Neither a proton lifetime nor a baryogenesis yield is calculated.
If something is unclear
A reference table stays unchanged while the angle moves.
Read its fixed θH = 0.1 and mKK = 13 TeV benchmark label; use the live flow plot for your current inputs.
