Gap Equations and Electroweak Symmetry Breaking
G. Cynolter, E. Lendvai
Abstract
Recently a new dynamical symmetry breaking model of electroweak interactions was proposed based on interacting fermions. Two fermions of different SU(2) representations form a symmetry breaking condensate and generate the lepton and quark masses. The weak gauge bosons get their usual standard model masses from a gauge invariant Lagrangian of a composite doublet scalar field. The new fermion fields become massive by condensation. In this note the gap equations are given in the linearized (mean field) approximation and the conditions for symmetry breaking and mass generation are presented. Perturbative unitarity constrains the self-couplings and the masses of the new fermions, a raw spectrum is given.
