Axion dark matter, proton decay and unification
We discuss the possibility to predict the QCD axion mass in the context of grand unified theories. We investigate the implementation of the DFSZ mechanism in the context of renormalizable SU(5) theories. In the simplest theory, the axion mass can be predicted with good precision in the range m = (2–...

Axion dark matter, proton decay and unificationFileviez Pérez, P.Murgui, ClaraPlascencia, A.D.We discuss the possibility to predict the QCD axion mass in the context of grand unified theories. We investigate the implementation of the DFSZ mechanism in the context of renormalizable SU(5) theories. In the simplest theory, the axion mass can be predicted with good precision in the range m = (2–16) neV, and there is a strong correlation between the predictions for the axion mass and proton decay rates. In this context, we predict an upper bound for the proton decay channels with antineutrinos, τ(p→ Kν¯) ≲ 4 × 10 yr and τ(p→ πν¯) ≲ 2 × 10 yr. This theory can be considered as the minimal realistic grand unified theory with the DFSZ mechanism and it can be fully tested by proton decay and axion experiments.The work of C.M. has been supported in part by Grants No. FPA2014-53631-C2-1-P, No. FPA2017-84445-P, and No. SEV-2014- 0398 (AEI/ERDF, EU), and by a La Caixa-Severo Ochoa scholarship.

| description |
We discuss the possibility to predict the QCD axion mass in the context of grand unified theories. We investigate the implementation of the DFSZ mechanism in the context of renormalizable SU(5) theories. In the simplest theory, the axion mass can be predicted with good precision in the range m = (2–16) neV, and there is a strong correlation between the predictions for the axion mass and proton decay rates. In this context, we predict an upper bound for the proton decay channels with antineutrinos, τ(p→ Kν¯) ≲ 4 × 10 yr and τ(p→ πν¯) ≲ 2 × 10 yr. This theory can be considered as the minimal realistic grand unified theory with the DFSZ mechanism and it can be fully tested by proton decay and axion experiments. |
