Explicit Electroweak Symmetry Breaking?
نویسنده
چکیده
We hypothesise that all electroweak symmetry breaking terms such as fermion masses and the W and Z gauge boson masses arise radiatively from just one explicit symmetry breaking term in the Lagrangian. Our hypothesis is motivated by the lack of experimental support and the lack of predictivity of the standard symmetry breaking scenario. We construct a simple model which illustrates our ideas. We also discuss the possible importance of scale invariance.

A electroweak theory without spontaneous symmetry breaking is studied in this paper. A new symmetry breaking of SU(2)L × U(1), axial-vector symmetry breaking, caused by the combination of the axial-vector component of the intermediate boson and the fermion mass is found in electroweak theory. The mass of the W boson is resulted in the combination of the axial-vector symmetry breaking and the ex...

متن کاملA Minimally Fine-Tuned Supersymmetric Standard Model
I describe supersymmetric theories in which the correct scale for electroweak symmetry breaking is obtained without significant fine-tuning. In these theories, supersymmetry breaking occurs at a low scale of order 100 TeV, and is transmitted to the supersymmetric standard-model sector through standard-model gauge interactions. The Higgs sector contains two Higgs doublets and a singlet field, wi...
متن کاملSolving the μ Problem in Gauge Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking Models with Flavor Symmetry
We suggest a solution to the μ problem of gauge mediated supersymmtery breaking models based on flavor symmetries. In this scenario the μ term arises through the vacuum expectation value of a singlet scalar field which is suppressed by a flavor symmetry factor relative to the scale of dynamical SUSY breaking. The same flavor symmetry also ensures that the soft SUSY breaking parameter Bμ is not ...
متن کاملStrongly Coupled Electroweak Symmetry Breaking: Implications of Models
We discuss the phenomenology of models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking which attempt to generate the observed fermion mass spectrum. After briefly describing the variety of and constraints on proposed models, we concentrate on the signatures of colored pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons and resonances at existing and proposed colliders. These particles provide a possibly unique signature:...
