Baryon number violation from confining New Physics
Abstract
The detection of neutron-antineutron oscillation will be a discovery of fundamental importance in particle physics and cosmology. In models discussed widely in literature, the process is generated through heavy New Physics with weak, perturbative, coupling at the scale of the experiment. Acknowledging the fact that Nature has been quite evasive regarding the strength and scale of New Physics, we discuss a new mechanism, generated by confining New Physics, at 2 GeV, resulting in low-energy baryon number violating effects. The mechanism predicts baryon number violating processes like neutron disappearance, neutron-neutron annihilation and neutron-anti neutron oscillation generated through the condensation of the linear moose.
