Title: Generating Order 2 And 4 Free-Fermionic Nahe-Based Heterotic Models
Abstract: A short overview of string phenomenology is presented which motivates the search of the free-fermionic heterotic string models. The process of generating these models is discussed along with the use of group theory in describing the Standard Model. All possible order 2 and 4 boundary vectors (BV’s) are generated with the constraint that they can be added to the NAHE set and still form a consistent MSSM string model. Combining the BV’s with the NAHE set results in new string models which will be analyzed in group theoretic terms to classify them according to their individual Standard Models.
