Title: Solution of the strong CP problem in models with scalars. [Higgs field coupling, color group extension heavy axion]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5987838

A possible solution to the strong CP problem is pointed out within the context of a Weinberg--Salam model with two Higgs fields coupled in a Peccei--Quinn symmetric fashion. This is done by extending the colour group to a bigger simple group which is broken at some very high energy. The model contains a heavy axion. No old or new U(1) problem re-emerges. 31 references.
