See-saw masses for quarks and leptons in an ambidextrous electroweak interaction model

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7161789

An ambidextrous electroweak interaction model with SU(2)/sub L/XSU(2)/sub R/XU(1) gauge symmetry is described in which the conventional quarks and leptons are accompanied by a set of new fermions that transform as singlets of SU(2)/sub L/XSU(2)/sub R/. The model has only two doublets of Higgs scalars. The masses of all known quarks and leptons result from the see-saw mechanism between the conventional fermions and the new ''singlet'' fermions. Neutrino neutral current interactions are identical to those of the standard SU(2)/sub L/XU(1) model. The singlet fermion masses lie in the 100-GeV to 1-TeV range to be probed by the oncoming accelerators of the 1990's.
