Universal SU(2/1) and the Higgs and fermion masses
- Tel Aviv Univ. (Israel). Sackler Faculty of Exact Sciences
We review the SU(2/1) internal supersymmetry suggested by D. Fairlie and the author in 1979. The initial apparent difficulties were resolved when, with J. Thierry-Mieg, we understood that the gauging of a supergroup implies taking the usual Yang-Mills-like Principal (Double) Fibre Bundle as a ``scaffold`` and using its Grassmann algebra as parameter manifold for the supergauge. SU(2/1) Universality fixes the masses of the Higgs scalar field and the ``top`` quark around 100--200 GeV, in the same region as the W and Z masses. A ``unified``` supergauge, enclosing SU(3)colour x SU(2) x U(l), predicts a fourth lepton generation in which the neutrino mass is of the same order.
