Natural Topcolor–Assisted Technicolor
نویسنده
چکیده
We construct a prototype of topcolor–assisted technicolor in which, although both top and bottom quarks acquire some mass from extended technicolor, strong U(1) couplings of technifermions are isospin symmetric and all gauge anomalies vanish. There is a mechanism for mixing between the light and heavy generations and there need be no very light pseudo– Goldstone bosons.

Top Decay in Topcolor-Assisted Technicolor
Conventional technicolor models with light charged technipions (π T ) lead to an unacceptably large contribution to t → π T b decay rate. Topcolor-assisted technicolor models also have additional PGBs called top-pions (π t ) which may contribute to this decay. We study the potentially dangerous mixing of charged top-pion and technipions in toy models of ‘natural’ topcolor-assisted technicolor. ...
متن کاملProgress on Symmetry Breaking and Generational Mixing in Topcolor-assisted Technicolor
Topcolor-assisted technicolor provides a dynamical explanation for electroweak and flavor symmetry breaking and for the large mass of the top quark without unnatural fine tuning. I briefly review the basics of topcolor-assisted technicolor, including major constraints and a general approach to satisfying them. The main challenge to topcolor-assisted technicolor is to generate the observed mixin...
متن کاملDynamical Computation on Coefficients of Electroweak Chiral Lagrangian from One-doublet and Topcolor-assisted Technicolor Models
Abstract Based on previous studies deriving the chiral Lagrangian for pseudo scalar mesons from the first principle of QCD, we derive the electroweak chiral Lagrangian and build up a formulation for computing its coefficients from one-doublet technicolor model and a schematic topcolor-assisted technicolor model. We find that the coefficients of the electroweak chiral Lagrangian for the topcolor...
متن کاملTopcolor Assisted Technicolor Models
We consider the lepton-flavor violating(LFV) processes li → ljγ in the framework of topcolor assisted technicolor(TC2) models. We find that the new gauge boson Z ′ predicted by TC2 models can give significantly contributions to these processes via the flavor changing couplings. The present experimental bound on the LFV process μ → eγ gives severe constraints on the TC2 models. In the case that ...
متن کاملTopcolor Assisted Technicolor
A condensate, tt, arising from O(TeV ) scale “topcolor,” in addition to technicolor (and ETC) may naturally explain the gauge hierarchy, the large top quark mass, and contains a rich system of testable consequences. A triplet of strongly coupled pseudo–Nambu–Goldstone bosons, “toppions,” near the top mass scale is a generic prediction of the models. A new class of technicolor schemes and associ...
