A model that underlies the Standard model (original) (raw)
We assign the chiral fermion fields of the Standard model to triplets of flavor (family, generation, horizontal) SU(3)fSU(3)_fSU(3)f symmetry, for anomaly freedom add one triplet of sterile right-handed neutrino fields, and gauge that symmetry. First we demonstrate that the resulting quantum flavor SU(3)fSU(3)_fSU(3)f dynamics completely spontaneously self-breaks: Both the Majorana masses of sterile neutrinos and the masses of all eight flavor gluons come out proportional to the SU(3)fSU(3)_fSU(3)f scale Lambda\LambdaLambda. Mixing of sterile neutrinos yields new CP-violating phases needed for understanding the baryon asymmetry of the Universe. Second, the SU(3)fSU(3)_fSU(3)f dynamics with weak hypercharge radiative corrections spontaneously generates the lepton and quark masses exponentially suppressed with respect to Lambda\LambdaLambda. Three active neutrinos come out as Majorana particles extremely light by seesaw. The Goldstone theorem implies: (i) The electroweak bosons WWW and ZZZ acquire masses. (ii) There are three axions, decent ca...
