Classically conformal B-L extended Standard Model and phenomenology

Abstract

Bardeen has argued that once the classically conformal invariance and its minimal violation by quantum anomalies are imposed on the SM, it can be free from the quadratic divergences and hence the gauge hierarchy problem. Under the hypothesis, We investigated the minimal B-L extended SM with a flat Higgs potential at the Planck scale. In this model, the B-L symmetry is radiatively broken at TeV scale. We studied phenomenology and detectability of the model at LHC and the ILC.
