    Extension of the standard model of electroweak interaction and Dark Matter in the tangent bundle geometry
    (Berlin ; Heidelberg : Springer, 2019) Herrmann, Joachim
    A generalized theory of electroweak interaction is developed based on the underlying geometrical structure of the tangent bundle with symmetries arising from transformations of tangent vectors along the fiber axis at a fixed spacetime point given by the SO(3,1) group. Electroweak interaction beyond the standard model (SM) is described by the little groups SU(2) ⊗ Ec(2) (Ec(2) is the central extended Euclidian group) which includes the group SU(2) ⊗ U(1) as a limit case. In addition to isospin and hypercharge, two additional quantum numbers arise which explain the existence of families in the SM. The connection coefficients yield the SM gauge potentials but also hypothetical gauge bosons and other hypothetical particles as a Higgs family as well as candidate Dark Matter particles are predicted. Several important consequences for the interaction between dark fermions, dark scalars or dark vector gauge bosons with each other and with SM Higgs and Z-bosons are described. © 2019, The Author(s).

    Switchable plasmonic routers controlled by external magnetic fields by using magneto-plasmonic waveguides
    (London : Nature Publishing Group, 2018) Ho, Kum-Song; Im, Song-Jin; Pae, Ji-Song; Ri, Chol-Song; Han, Yong-Ha; Herrmann, Joachim
    We analytically and numerically investigate magneto-plasmons in metal films surrounded by a ferromagnetic dielectric. In such waveguide using a metal film with a thickness exceeding the Skin depth, an external magnetic field in the transverse direction can induce a significant spatial asymmetry of mode distribution. Superposition of the odd and the even asymmetric modes over a distance leads to a concentration of the energy on one interface which is switched to the other interface by the magnetic field reversal. The requested magnitude of magnetization is exponentially reduced with the increase of the metal film thickness. Based on this phenomenon, we propose a waveguide-integrated magnetically controlled switchable plasmonic routers with 99-%-high contrast within the optical bandwidth of tens of THz. This configuration can also operate as a magneto-plasmonic modulator.
