Constraints for New Fundamental Force

In summary: Higgs field strength'. It's possible that a new force or field exists that doesn't fit neatly into any of the existing categories.
  • #36
The first constraint is the anomally triangle diagrams, any new force needs to satisfy these constraints. However adding addition fermions could allow extra forces to exist. After that, the symmetry group
and the mass of the force carriers need to be found.

Any new force, needs to have hidden from previous investigation, this might happen if

If the force carrier has a large mass,
if the force is confined like QED,
if the force constant is very small, or
if the force is screened by very light particles.

1. What is a "Fundamental Force"?

A fundamental force is a type of interaction between particles that is responsible for the behavior and structure of matter. There are four known fundamental forces in nature: gravity, electromagnetism, strong nuclear force, and weak nuclear force.

2. How are new fundamental forces discovered?

New fundamental forces are typically discovered through experiments and observations in particle physics. Scientists may also use theoretical models and mathematical equations to predict the existence of a new fundamental force.

3. What are the potential constraints for a new fundamental force?

Potential constraints for a new fundamental force include experimental limitations, theoretical inconsistencies, and the need for the force to be consistent with existing laws of physics. Additionally, the force must be able to be measured and observed in order to be considered a fundamental force.

4. How do constraints for new fundamental forces impact our understanding of the universe?

The discovery or non-discovery of a new fundamental force can greatly impact our understanding of the universe. It can provide new insights into the behavior of matter and energy, and potentially lead to the development of new technologies. It can also challenge existing theories and lead to the development of new ones.

5. Are there any current theories or experiments focused on finding new fundamental forces?

Yes, there are ongoing theories and experiments in the field of particle physics that are focused on finding new fundamental forces. Some of these include the search for dark matter and the study of high-energy collisions at particle accelerators such as the Large Hadron Collider.
