Unified Interactions of Leptons and Hadrons*
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is suggested that a unifying description of leptons and hadrons can be obtained within a nonabelian gauge theory where the gauge group is a symmetry group of a set of massless elementary fermions (leptons, quarks). We investigate the consequences of such an approach for the strong, electromagnetic, and weak interactions. We study both gauge theories with and without fermion number conservation, e.g., theories based on the groups SU,, x SC/, (n = 8. 12, 16) and SO,& (n = IO, 14).

A Gauge Model Based on Triplets
Recent observations of the new narrow resonances1), 2) and some anomalous phenomena3> are suggestive of the existence of a new quantum number of hadrons besides the well known isotopic spin and the strangeness. In unified gauge theories4l this kind of quantum number is required to cope with the absence of strangeness changing neutral current of the ordinary magnitude of weak interaction. In a p...
متن کامل~rst Search for Sequential Heavy Leptons at Adone
Abstract On this occasion to honour Professor Martin Perl’s 65th birthday, I present some of the important contributions of Martin to the field of strong interactions. I also present my own interest in studying lepton pairs in hadron collisions and the development of instrumentation to distinguish leptons from hadrons. These studies eventually led to the development of the idea and experimentat...
متن کاملStructure and Stability of Matter
The main motivation of this article is to try to address such questions as why our universe is as it is from the smallest elementary particles to stars, galaxies and the largest cosmos. We attempt to offer our view on this fundamental problem by introducing energy levels for leptons and quarks as well as for hadrons, and by exploring both essential characteristics of four forces derived using t...
متن کاملQCD radiative corrections to γ∗γ∗ → hadrons
We compute the order-αS corrections to the total cross section and to jet rates for the process e+e− → e+e−+ hadrons, where the hadrons are produced through crossedchannel quark exchange in the hard scattering of two off-shell photons originating from the incoming leptons. We use a next-to-leading order general-purpose partonic Monte Carlo event generator that allows the computation of a rate d...
متن کاملGauged Supersymmetric Generalized Nonlinear Sigma Models for Quarks and Leptons*
We consider the idea of describing quarks and leptons, and their interactions, in terms of gauged supersymmetric generalized nonlinear sigma models. It is found that the best model is the one based on the Kahler manifold E7/sU(4) X U(1)4, with an atipropriate complex structure. The isotropy representation of the manifold is sufficient for embedding three families of quarks and leptons. We as10 ...
