Large cross-sections for W/sup +/W/sup -/ and Z/sup 0/Z/sup 0/ pairs and color sextet quarks

Journal Article · · Mod. Phys. Lett. A; (United States)
Dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking by a chiral condensate of color sextet quarks is expected to produce large cross-sections for W/sup +/W/sup -/ and Z/sup 0/Z/sup 0/ pairs due to direct QCD production. Cross-section estimates based on a combination of chiral and diffractive scaling arguments are shown to be consistent with the candidate events observed at CERN. Other implications of sextet quarks for QCD dynamics and for Grand Unification are also briefly described.
