Effective Lagrangian approach to the fermion mass problem.
An effective theory is proposed, combining the standard gauge group SU(3)C ⊗ SU(2)L ⊗ U(1)Y with a horizontal discrete symmetry. By assigning appropriate charges under this discrete symmetry to the various fermion fields and to (at least) two Higgs doublets, the broad spread of the fermion mass and mixing angle spectrum can be explained as a result of suppressed, non-renormalisable terms. A par...
متن کاملTowards an effective-lagrangian approach to fermion-loop corrections
We present a study of the non-local lagrangian approach to incorporate higher-order effects in e+e− → n fermions. In its minimal version, the nonlocal lagrangian approach is found to exhibit problems with unitarity and high-energy behaviour. We identify the origin of these problems and obtain some first clues about possible solutions by investigating the zero-mode solutions of the Ward Identiti...
متن کاملThe Fermion Mass Problem *
I review the 'puzzles' associated with the fermion mass matrices and describe some recent attempts to resolve them, at least partially. Models which attempt to explain the observed mass hierarchy as arising from ra-diative corrections are discussed. I then scrutinize possible inter–relations among quark and lepton masses and the mixing angles in the context of grand unified theories. It is argu...
متن کاملAre four-fermion operators relevant for the fermion mass problem?
Four-fermion operators may have large anomalous scaling and become relevant operators in some strongly interacting gauge theories. We present a detailed model which illustrates some of the implications of such operators for the generation of quark and lepton masses. Such operators would originate at high scales where quarks and leptons experience a new strong interaction, but no unbroken techni...
متن کاملEffective Lagrangian approach to electroweak baryogenesis: Higgs boson mass limit and electric dipole moments of fermions.
A natural solution to the hierarchy problem of the standard model is to assume new physics to appear at the TeV scale. We parametrize the effects of this new physics in terms of effective lagrangian and examine its impacts on electroweak baryogenesis. We point out that with such an effective lagrangian successful electroweak baryogenesis implies: i) Higgs boson lies within the reach of LEP II; ...
